Oh, and looking at their About Us page-
2 other titles show up-
http://www.aurora-publishing.com/about.html Their art, no clue as to their names, but still, there's copyright info.

On the image of the girl with the knife, the copyright info says Anna Hannamaki [I'm assuming the artist], and Asahi Sonorama, which googling, is the name of a large manga publisher parent company http://ucgi.asahisonorama.co.jp/cgi-bin/index.cgi

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/company.php?id=3492

Perhaps Ohzora also has access to their catalogue for this? Or one of the creators of the manga in question just has the same name has them Anime smile

There's also an image of an angel girl also copyrighted to Asahi, with Shoko Hamada, the artist/creator of Mirage of Blaze
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=21736

Their about us page also indicates they're planning to publish domestically created material.

Oh, and clicking about their site indicates they're ALSO publishing BL titles under Deux Press- http://www.deux-press.com/ announcing a title called Hate to Love You
