Japan is located along what is called a subduction zone, in which one tectonic plate slides into and under another. As these plates move they snag on one another and the rocks deform, building up tension. This is occasionally released in the form of Earthquakes.
Tokyo was the city destroyed by the earthquake of 1923 in Japan. The earthquake, known as the Great Kanto Earthquake, caused widespread devastation and fires in Tokyo and surrounding areas, resulting in the loss of tens of thousands of lives.

Almost all of Tokyo Japan had little damage after the March 11th 2011 earthquake.
Fukushima, Tokyo, Sendai.
Tokyo did not get hit by the recent earthquake in Japan, however the stress from that earthquake has been moved along the plate bounday and therefore Tokyo is the next target for a major earthquake in Japan.
There was a big earthquake in japan on Friday the 11th of march. it was caused by a destructive plate boundary. the pacific plate moved down under the Eurasian plate. That caused a lot of pressure in the epicenter what was about 200km far from Tokyo. The result was an earthquake. the earthquake caused a tsunami. It was up to 10 m high waves destroyed thousands of houses in the coast of japan.
