You mean BJJ is from Kano-Ryu/Kano-ha Jiu-Jitsu?And finally BJJ isn't really from ancient Jujutsu, it is actually Judo.
Brazillian Jiu jitsu, is a safer art, and therefore, better for sport competition. Some of the things they teach in the Japanese stuff can be crippling (which is the point).

It's a lot muddier than that.Well I have a nice picture of these,BJJJ is mostly floor work and japenese jujutsu is something like a rougher judo where the techs are standing and in the floor.

But basically Japanese Jujutsu will have traceable lineage to Japan(Feudal times). Japanese Jujutsu is still usually grappling oriented, but was based off fighting in a battlefield. This means it was a mean to fight an armed and armored opponent(or unarmed). You won't really find techniques for fighting off your back, like you do in BJJ. Because in Japanese Jujutsu ryu... The focus was getting your opponent on the ground with you kneeling or standing over them.(Basically still on your feet). You still have the chokes, joint locks, takedowns, and throws, but with a different philosophy and approach. Traditionally Jujutsu was pretty much taught alongside with weapons training. Also in a lot BJJ schools you will be trained in a sport manner. Where you will be told something is against the rules, or you won't be allowed to do a certain joint manipulation. And finally BJJ isn't really from ancient Jujutsu, it is actually Judo.
I'd say BJJ and Japanese Jujutsu are pretty different outside the chokes and joint locks.
So theres no grappling in JJJ?
No.Is that why BJJ touts the rough and tough stuff and Judo is called "the gentle way?"
Well of course there is.
"Japanese Jujutsu is still usually grappling oriented"
So then there will be grappling defenses? I'm talking about what you said in your post...that you wont find techs for fighting off your back.
I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean.
In Brazillian Jiu Jitsu and Judo. There are techniques developed to where you can fight off your back when someone is on top of you. Being able to do stuff from the guard position.
But yeah of course there are grappling defenses in Japanese Jujutsu. Just none that I know of off the back while someone is on top of you.
Just asking, because some JJJ that I've seen has included defenses while you're on your back.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words. The first three are Japanese Koryu (created prior to 1863) jujutsu arts. ....
