Masaaki Endoh (遠藤 正明 Endoh Masaaki) (born 1967-08-28) is a Japanese singer/songwriter who is prominent in the area of soundtracks for anime and tokusatsu productions. He is one of the founders of the anison supergroup JAM Project and has been a regular member ever since its inception in 2000. His nickname is the "Young Lion of Anison."
In 2008, he recorded his Enson cover album. On this album, Masaaki Endoh recorded many covers of opening themes in the late 1990s and early 2000s, including Uninstall by Chiaki Ishikawa to Sousei no Aquarion by Akino. After hearing about an American version of Gosei Sentai Dairanger (season 2 of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers), he included its theme song "Go Go Power Rangers" as one of the tracks. He later released Enson2 in the winter of the same year, and Lantis organized a series of concerts to promote the albums.
July 6, 2011, saw the release of his fourth solo album (e)-STYLE, which he supported with a national tour.[1] He also participated in the Type-Moon 10th anniversary by singing "Fellows".[2]
