Ah, that makes sense. I incorrectly assumed that the person would be an artist, so I skipped over all the voice actors on MAL. Oops.

<p>Based on the name, the one dubbed as the Emperor of BL is Toshiyuki Morikawa. There is an <a href="http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interview/2009-08-27/interview-toshiyuki-morkiawa-voice-of-d.gray-man-tyki-mikk" rel="nofollow noreferrer">interview in MAL</a> that supports this.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Q: We've got many, many female fans today. In addition to regular anime, you've been playing many roles for female-oriented drama CDs. What's the major difference between the two types of performance, and how did you feel when you first started voicing female-oriented drama CDs?</p>
<p>A: I'm very happy to see so many female fans, but I also noticed a few guys among them.

<p>As far as I know, he don't draw BL manga, but he do voice many of them as he said himself.</p>

<p>In episode 4 of <em>Fudanshi Koukou Seikatsu</em>, there's a gag where Sakaguchi mentions "the emperor [or empress?] of BL, Mori███████yuki". Judging from the bleeping-out of the name, I assume this is a reference to a real person who draws BL manga. But who? </p>

<p>I had a look through <a href="https://myanimelist.net/people.php?q=mori%20yuki" rel="nofollow">all the people on MAL whose family names begin with "Mori" and whose personal names end with "yuki"</a> and didn't come up with anything. </p>

I had a look through [all the people on MAL whose family names begin with "Mori" and whose personal names end with "yuki"](https://myanimelist.net/people.php?q=mori%20yuki) and didn't come up with anything.
