Shogi

Not sure where to place this thread so please feel free to move it if it would be better placed somewhere else.
I am a big chess fan and i'm only recently trying to get into shogi. I havn't really been able to find a way to play it anywhere though. Does anyone know of some decent websites where I can play shogi online?

Any site where I can play would be nice. But it would also be cool if there is a more community based shogi site somewhere. I'm also trying to learn to speak, read, and write japanese so a place where I could both play shogi and work on my communication skills would be wonderful. ^_^

I have found a few sites but they all have either 0 people online or like 1-3 people online. I would like to find a larger community if there is one. I thought perhaps there would be a japanese site with more people than these cruddy english ones.

Best place you'll probably find. Yahoo Japan's main game page.

Ah thank you. I don't think american yahoo has that.

No it's not on the US yahoo.

Shogi is best played with old men in the park.

Around my home, many many places where they bring their own sets and wait for challengers.

BTW
I think Shogi may have certain magical power that they bet their life
these shogi players might be so
