For U.S. residents, the annual subscription rate for Shogi Sekai is about
$240.  It's expensive partly because of overseas shipment and partly
because there is a middleman, a company called OCS America, that handles
the subscription.  I believe recognized shogi clubs get Shogi Sekai for free.


You're kidding?! I don't subscribe to any Shogi magazines, but there are other Japanese monthly subscriptions I maintain through a Japanese bookstore near me. It's only like $6 US a month per subscription. It's Asahiya, and I believe they have various outlets throughout the US?

Anyway, I have to believe $20/mo is a price that can be easily beat.
