Blue Lynx
is a Japanese anime label and subsidiary of Fuji TV. Founded in 2019, the label produces boys' love (''yaoi'') anime films exclusively. History Development of Blue Lynx began in 2017 through the efforts of Yuka Okayasu, a producer at Fuji TV who previously worked on the network's Noitamina anime programming block. After noting that Fuji TV's existing programming blocks Noitamina and +Ultra seek to appeal to a broad audience of anime viewers, she sought to develop a label that would conversely appeal to a niche audience of ''yaoi'' fans. Development of the label was aided by the critical and commercial success of the live-action boys' love television dramas ''Ossan's Love'' on TV Asahi and ''Pornographer'' on Fuji TV on Demand (FOD), which demonstrated the popularity of the genre to executives at Fuji.

Livedoor
was a Japanese company that functioned as an Internet service provider and operator of a web portal and blog platform before being brought down by a scandal in 2006. The company was founded and led in its first 10 years by Takafumi Horie, known as "Horiemon" in Japan. Livedoor grew into one of Japan's premier Internet businesses, putting over 1,000 employees on its payroll at its peak. Its reliance on acquisitions and stock swap mergers to achieve growth also made it one of the country's most controversial enterprises. Its growth came to a resounding halt when scandal erupted in early 2006. An investigation of securities law violations led to a nosedive in the company's stock price. The Tokyo Stock Exchange delisted Livedoor on April 14, 2006. The floundering company's properties were purchased by South Korea-based NHN Corp in 2010. Today the ISP and blog services that bear the Livedoor name are operated by Line Corporation, developers of Line messaging services and the Naver ...
