The 47 Ronin | Loyalty. Honor. Sacrifice. 🇯🇵☦️

From Gracie Allegiance Texas

During my visit to Sengaku-ji Temple in Tokyo, I reflected on the legacy of Japan's Forty-Seven Ronin and the timeless virtues of Bushido.

Their story reminds us that true strength begins with character, duty, and faithful service.The letter reads:"To my beloved, if you are reading this, the battle has claimed what belongs to the earth, and I have gone to join the ancestors. Do not weep for the armor I leave behind, for a warrior's true shelter was never made of iron. It was the home we built together. With my final breath, I leave you this brushwork."Building warriors for the Kingdom. ☦️ @gracieallegiancetx.com

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
