Weren't these towns built on land re-claimed from the sea? That would explain the "wave" like motion and the upsurge of water forced inland by the tsunami.
Land amounts added
Tokyo Bay, Japan - 249 km2
Kobe, Japan - 23 km2 (1995)
Mihawa Ward is located in northwestern Chiba Prefecture, and consists entirely of reclaimed land from Tokyo Bay. As such, the area is flat, and portions are below sea level.

Well, the second video says it is filmed in Chiba Province, and so could well be reclaimed land:

Also, if you type "Chiba reclaimed land" into Google, you get several other sites showing the videos and they state that it is reclaimed land.
I still want to know where the Locations of the first Video are supposed to be.
