While there's a fatality (NHK in Japanese: https://www3.nhk.or.jp/news/html/20230526/k10014079771000.ht...), these events are pretty much "huh, that happened". It wasn't even the headliner on NHK's NewsWeb (https://www3.nhk.or.jp/news/), sharing a slot with a relatively faraway Typhoon No. 2 (internationally known as Mawar).

(The last relatively-significant earthquake was on 5th May where an elderly person died but it was pretty much "that happened").

The news piece you linked seems to be about a Yakuza shooting in Machida, not about an earthquake?

Here in the west side of centeral Tokyo, the quake was long and definitely noticeable, but nothing out of ordinary. In Narita Airport, I hear it shaked pretty hard.
