So if the plants did not meltdown, what happened?
It's not a case of 'if', therefore no need for further discussion. There was no meltdown.
Three of the plant’s reactors suffered a nuclear meltdown in March 2011 after the Great East Japan Earthquake and resulting tsunami hit the region. The plant is comprised of six separate water boiling reactors. At the time of the earthquake, reactor number 4 had been de-fueled and reactors 5 and 6 were in cold shutdown for planned maintenance, thereby managing to avoid meltdowns.
Tokyo Electric Power Co. admitted Tuesday what many experts had long suspected: The cores of reactors 2 and 3 at the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant likely melted down and dropped to the bottom of their pressure vessels, just as happened at unit 1.

I have often wondered if the government of Japan or Tepco would hire posters to try and downplay this event. What are your thoughts on this? Do you think they would hire paid posters to try and undermine anyone who is talking out about the event.......YES or NO.
Personally I think they will have trials for crimes against humanity when people finally figure out just how bad this is and how many people were covering it up. What are you thoughts on that also.......Thank you.

Maybe there is a difference of opinion here on what a meltdown means.
