WHere can i get battle magazine? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

RiceEata · 11-26-2004, 05:26 PM

It looks like its a good magazine, i searched google and couldn't find any place that sells it. And i rarely see BM mags on ebay...so i thought maybe someone over here can help.

Battle Magazine

Send them an e-mail
Tell them you are interested in subscribing to the mag.
6 or 12 mo.
Give them the full name of the magazine( Hyper car style Battle Magazine)
They'll email you back w/a price.( about $169. for 1 yr)

I subscribed a while ago for over 3 yrs.
You get the mag. about a week after it releases in Japan.

Hope this helps!

Books Kinokuniya stocks it regularly. Only issue is that it comes in about 3 weeks late.

Man you guys suck. I live in socal most of the year so I get my BM from burritos. I get my japanese magazines from Kinokuniya. 40$ for a year of Battle Magaze or Doriten.

In hawaii you can try these places on Oahu.
Bunbundo in downtown...
Hakubundo near ala moana is probably your best bet.
Shirokiya's magazine dept. should be able to order it...
Iwase Books is closed?
There's one last good one near alamoana but I cant remember it's name for the life of me. It's on your left going to alamoana from manoa, on the right is used to be a huge empty lot which is now a walmart or something. It's next to a bunch of ramen shops. If you can wait till december I'll show you myself.

Oh yah. Don't subscribe to BM. It's been sucking a lot recently. I'd spend my money on DoriTen.

The DVDs are OK, but a large portion of it is Japanese dialog, which is a problem for many of us (I've only taken Japanese 1 myself), and a lot of the drifting is at such a skill level that watching it is a bit tedious.

that's the best way to learn. i won't buy any of the subtitled ones.
plus if there's anything i don't understand i'll ask some one.

RiceEata · 12-01-2004, 08:55 PM

Does the BM dvd's come with the magazine?

BTW, these are the quotes i got...I live on the Big Island and i don't know of any japanese book store that carry BM over here.

Does anybody know of a cheaper place?
These are the qoutes i got.

Hyper car style battle magazine, 6 months subscription is $ 76.00 and 1 year is $142.00
including shipping charge.

If you would like to order, please let us know your
phone number, credit card number(Visa, M/C, Amex,
Discover), V-code(3-digits number on the back of the
card) and expiration date.
