This is the first example of mangaka who were not affiliated with ero gekiga publications, but at some point drew stories for them or are otherwise associated with the genre.
The story sampled below, called 姦楽の舘, was featured in the 1983/7 issue of Manga Love Call and is credited to 亜央城森 (AO Jômori? – not sure about the pronunciation). I can't prove it, but judging from the art it seems all but obvious that this is a pen name for the late SUGIURA Hinako (杉浦日向子), who was famous for drawing Edo-period tales in a style adopting techniques used in the art of ukiyo-e.
The story was reprinted in an anthology called Kannô gekiga daizenshô (官能劇画大全書), published by Softmagic in 2002 and now, sadly, out of print.
Note that the censorship is as in the original publication.

Notes | Drew his own stories as well as others'. The samples below are taken from two disturbing, self-authored jidaigeki tales, 妖花夢幻 and 秘抄人形 – published before 1983 (I don't know when and where exactly). As is the case with most ero gekiga artists still active, KUMON's recent work is completely neglectible. |

Notes | MISAWA's manga apparantly both predated and outlasted the ero gekiga boom. I'm not familiar with his earliest work, but his recent offerings are vastly inferior to those of the period sampled in the images below (dated 1978-1984). The above list might be incomplete but should cover most, if not all, of his collections from the 70s and 80s. |
Links | Some of MISAWA's work (old and new) can be sampled and purchased digitally, for example here: http://starcollector.jp/seizin/misawa/misawa.htm |
