DISCLAIMER: not every title on this list is trying to be a "good and realistic representation". But I believe even "problematic" depictions are worthy of note. You've been warned.

This is a list of the Shojo and Josei manga licenses held by Viz that are not under the Shojo Beat or older Viz Shojo labels. These include some digital-only Viz Select licenses they got after TokyoPop went under as well as ones published under the plain Viz or Viz Signature labels. Otherwise, these titles are under either Viz Signature or Viz Media imprints.

*X by CLAMP has been published under both the Viz Shojo imprint (singles) and the Viz media imprint (omnibi)

*Many of Junji Ito's short stories were published in the shojo magazines Nemuki and Halloween, and have been mixed into his seinen horror in the Viz hardcover releases for his works. So those are shojo that have not been released under Viz Shojo or Shojo Beat.
