JAM<ref>Japan Animation song (anison) Makers</ref> Project is a music [[Supergroup]] composed of some of the best and most [[Hot
Currently, the band is composed of Kageyama, Endoh, Masami Okui ([[Revolutionary Girl Utena|"Rinbu -Revolution-"]], [[Yu-Gi-Oh!|"Shuffle"]]), Hiroshi Kitadani ([[One Piece|"We Are"]], "[[Madan Senki Ryukendo]]") and Yoshiki Fukuyama (Singing voice of [[Macross 7|Nekki Basara]] and his single "Makkana Chikai", the OP to [[Busou Renkin]]). Mizuki reduced his status to "part-time member" after the group got off the ground, Sakamoto "graduated" from the group and rejoined Anthem, and Matsumoto left in April 2008 to pursue solo work. They are occasionally joined by Ricardo Cruz, [[

And for some tidbits, Ichiro Mizuki lends his voice to voice ''[[Super Robot Wars]] Alpha 3'''s [[Big Bad]] Keisar Ephes.

{{tropelist}}
* [[Anime Theme Song]] (the name of the band is ''Japan Animation song<ref> Anison</ref> Makers'')
* [[Ascended Extra]]: Ricardo Cruz. He started off as a concert-exclusive singer for when the band toured in Brazil, and then moved on to help out on some of the band's big songs like "Stormbringer" and "Transformers EVO.".
Line 81 ⟶ 78:
* [[Dream Team]]
* [[Even the Guys Want Him]] (Masaaki Endo)
* [[
* [[Gratuitous English]] (many of their songs, including ''VICTORY'', ''Voyager'' and the opening of ''SKILL'')
** And here they are [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dAzRjXFV5o&feature=related singing an 80's medley].
* [[Great Balls of Fire]] (used to punctuate the instrumental openings in concert)
* [[Hot
** Speaking of Heats... not only is it a hotblooded song, but it is a song ''about being hotblooded''. AWESOME.
* [[Large Ham]]. '''YES, YES, YES'''.
** The members even acknowledge this, to the point where Masaaki Endoh, Hironobu Kageyama and Ricardo Cruz compete on-stage to see who's the hammiest!!
* [[Massive Multiplayer Crossover]]: JAM is a fixture at the [[Animelo]] Summer Live anime music concerts, which could easily take up a page of their own.
** If you have never seen/heard anything from the aforementioned concerts, get thyself to Youtube IMMEDIATELY or go to iTunes and look up "Re:bridge." Your mind will be blown.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMPfnu15bZg Here's the Youtube version of both performances (it was a two-day event) edited together]. Now sit down and brace for ''awesome''.
* [[Older Than They Look]]: Especially when some of them look like Masami Okui or Masaaki Endoh.
* [[Ominous Latin Chanting]]: "The Gate of Hell", "Crest Of Z's"
* [[One
* [[Rated
* [[Rearrange the Song]]: Although more a case of lyric recycling, for some reason the hook for the song "GONG" "Gongu wo narase" appears in a lot of their songs before their song "GONG" was even written. Also, parts of "SKILL" show up in "Rescue Fire" (Motto! Motto!) and "Bakuchin Kanryo! Rescue Fire" ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGZunzrWeGg I can fly! You can fly! We can fly!]).
* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]] / [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]] (Matsumoto and Okui, before the former left. Matsumoto is consistently more energetic, has a more boyish voice (voicing hotblooded shounen heroes), even has shorter hair and is nicknamed Satoshi, and Makkun is more about feminine appeal and writes softer, more emotional songs like Peaceful One)
* [[Scarf of Asskicking]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfPabkojSfw&feature=related Doesn't look out of place around Mizuki Ichiro's neck ''at all''.]
* [[Softer and Slower Cover]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJbHotqsd0E Rescue Fire!]. Most of the content of ''Victoria Cross'' is like this, although a bit subtler.
* [[Spelling Song]] ("V-I-C-T-O-R-Y, 3 2 1 0 Never give up! Oh yeaaahhhhh!")
* [[Testosterone Poisoning]]: [[
** ''Break Out'' is essentially a long string of hotblooded buzzwords with very little coherence and a catchy chorus.
* [[The Power of Rock]] (On at least [[Super Robot Wars|three]] [[Macross 7|distinct]] [[
* [[Theme Music Power
* [[Up to Eleven]]: What they did to [http://youtube.com/watch?v=Ls7oOxUBbYQ Okkusenman]. They took an [[Mega Man
** [[Serial Escalation]]: They did it to the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5LFReFumVM Lucky Star OP], too.
** Masaaki did it to the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4hq7qWzhr4 Hidamari Sketch OP].
** Though, not Okkusenman, Endoh did a remix of [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNhRljqvXL0 Sorairo Days] from [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]. It's enough to bring a man to tears OF AWESOME.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCEv0dWNLuM WITH A FULL SYMPHONIC ORCHESTRA] as part of their 10th anniversary tour.
* [[What Do You Mean
** With that theory tested, the next question is "Can JAM Project make anything even '' more'' awesome?" [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkQT9sVabQk This video] tests this new theory.
** And while we're at it, another theory is asked: Can [[JAM Project]] make anything terrible awesome? [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7M1pHm3YwB4 You be the judge.]
