I'm sorry, but that looks like a crossbred rather than a Japanese bantam. JMO.

Well it is a Jap cross with sebright but if I were to cross it back to a jap would it look more like a jap ?

Maybe. But it would take many generations of back crossing to good quality Japs and lots of chicks raised to maintain both type and color. You could make it your lifetime poultry project.
