“You don’t need to convert to be a Nichiren Buddhist since it’s not an organised religion." - SGI whopper
Two comments....SGI is a highly organized religion. The Lotus Sutra Buddhism of Nichiren may or may not be an organized religion. There are sects (organized) and independents (not organized). Shakubuku and shoju (the forceful and the gentle practices of the Lotus Sutra) mean to convert to the Lotus Sutra Buddhism of Nichiren exclusively. Not having people convert is neither the practice of shoju or shakubuku. It is Ikedaism.
