The emergent nature of the 1946 tsunami has been a challenge to tsunami
modelers trying to make an earthquake source fit. Yuichiro Tanioka has
come closest, by invoking sediment deformation at the shallow end of
the fault (i.e., by making the earthquake look like a landslide :-)

Am I right to guess, based on the smiley, that is your preferred
solution as well?

You seem to have a thing for landslide induced tsunami.
