SEISMOLOGISTS on Sunday warned Japan to stay vigilant for the next "Big One" after a powerful 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of the quake-prone nation, injuring a dozen people.

Saturday's quake was the second sizeable tremor Tokyo has experienced in a week, after a much less powerful - but far shallower - earthquake close to the capital on Monday.
