There's the European Shogi Championship, where a new champion rises every year. In other countries is quite dormant for now. Vietnam Shogi Club has their own rating system too, check them out. Only a shogi professional can get pro titles, the only pro to get all titles was Yoshiharu Habu, which will be soon overtaken by the latest sensation Fujii Souta who has taken all except the Ouza title, he's fighting Nagase Ouza for the title right now!!
So you are saying that there is no direct world championship match in shogi? Interesting. Also, what happens when a player wins every title?
