Kansai Time Out was first published in February 1977.[1] The founders were David Jack (who died on 17 September 2021[2]) and his wife, Sachiko Matsunaga.[1] Matsunaga was also the publisher.[1] It was published on a monthly basis.[3] The headquarters of the monthly was in Kobe.[3]
The magazine was staffed by many throughout the years, and was a focal point for Kansai society, featuring local activities and events, interviews with both local and international people, and varied articles about social, political and cultural events.[1] The magazine also published several lists.[3] It folded in 2009 after being sold to a bigger publishing group that appeared to use it as a tax loss, shutting it down almost immediately after acquiring it.
