Oh, that's right. Unless I'm forgetting something obvious, I think that any yaoi/BL/yuri/shoujo-ai that VIZ has picked up has tended to fly under the radar because they haven't made an imprint or a line for it--heaven knows, they do not shy away at mature material, but they're not constructing a brand identity on it. The Signature line is the closest they've come to that, and with a few exceptions, the titles in that line tend to contain more horror and violence than sexual content, heterosexual or otherwise.

I will be interested in finding out the nature and content of Ooku on that front. But whatever the content of Ooku turns out to be, I'm excited about it, 'cause it's Fumi Yoshinaga, and yaoi or not, even her sub-par work is heads and shoulders above most everything else.
