Chakuriku!! is the first album by Masaaki Endoh. It was released on November 27, 2003, by Lantis.[1][2][3][4]
Production[edit]
Endoh wrote several songs for the album, besides including other renowned ones, like the Cybuster opening "Senshi yo, Tachiagare!". Try Force (a group made up of Hironobu Kageyama, Kenichi Sudo, Yoshichika Kuriyama and Make-Up's Yohgo Kohno) was involved in the production.[5] A limited edition containing a DVD with the "Zettai Mutetsu no GO Fighter" music video and its making-of was released. This song was written by Kohei Tanaka, the same composer of One Piece's first opening, "We Are!".[6]
The album also contains the song "Ticket to the Paradise", opening theme for the TV series Anipara Ongakukan, where Endoh was a co-host along Kageyama.[7][8]
Reception[edit]
CD Journal said the album is "unmissable, full of the power and versatility of a talented singer".[6] Chakuriku!! reached the 223rd place on Oricon Albums Chart.[9]
