Good necro though, just reading some of John South's stuff gave me some chuckles.

Isn't that the point of forums? We have a poster here named Dan that is basically a virtual sub. RJ is his domOh I see what this is.

To answer your question, No Japanese JuJutsu isn't that bad compared to bjj or any other martial art that has spawned from it.
Japanese Ju Jitsu is the father of many martial art styles to include but not limited to Brazilian jiujitsu.
Like any martial art, the practitioner can only perform to the level and intensity of his training.
There are many JuJitsu schools as there are bjj schools that focus on fitness and self defense rather than competition or submission grappling.
I practice Japanese JuJutsu and routinely defeat my bjj brethren in bjj grappling competitions.
If I win does it mean my fighting style is superior? Of course not. It only means I was the the superior practitioner at that moment.
As far as JJJ promotions being easy to achieve. A broad statement like that would seem a bit irrational. Let's keep in mind you can still get a Gracie blue belt on the internet. I would say this like everything ells in the martial arts community is based on your gym and your professor.
Congradulations to you on your victory.
It would seem you need a fewer lessons in grappling and more mentorship about respect.
Good luck .
So I was fighting a brown belt in Japanese jujutsu tonight. I'm just a lowly one-stripe white belt in BJJ, yet I schoolled him! The brown belt submitted to me three times under ten minutes each time starting from standing. Complete pwnage.
Now I am twenty pounds lighter and the dude was a beast, so this shouldn't be! Furthermore, he didn't even know how to do an armbar from guard. (Although, he never even got guard against me.) Why wasn't I destroyed? I don't think he was going easy.
