I guess "Thought, Breath, Action, Victory," a martial arts motto I can't recall the origin of before I stole it for Legend of Explosive Youth! is too short as ell, then. As for the Danzai Soldier oath, well, the character is vaguely based on Danzaiver from the "Evil Zone" Playstation game as adapted into a team show for a "remagined" new season.. the bits about widows and orphans is a direct lift from one of the in-game quotes, and I think the "in any place and at any time" is close to one as well. I made up a loose outline for the "show" and a couple of notes on the "second season" that my character was extracted before reaching, to have things for the GM to tie the game's metaplot to, but I know that it doesn't really count if it's not part of the general culture in OUR world.
The structure of that oath is really the most significant part, I think - it has three main points, each with three sub-points, and three conditions it's sworn by, making it thrice-three "magically significant," and those conditions tie it to the earth and th sky and to the caster's life/soul. When Daisuke recites it, he glows with danzaitron (magic) energy, and when he recognises something evil that needs a smiting it flashes visibly in his eyes.
