What is Nichiren Buddhism?

I have been reading about Buddhism for a while now and been meditating daily. But I have been thinking about joining or visiting a temple. The closest one that I live by is a Nichiren Shoshu Temple about a half a mile away. This might be a good chance for me since I have been learning Japanese separately and think it might be a good idea about the practices and how they differ from others before I join. I know Nichiren places a great importance on the lotus sutra, but beyond that I don't know much.
