Masuji KIGAMI (木上 益治, 7 credits for animation, including Akira and KOR movie 1) is a different kanji reading duplicate of
Yoshiji KIGAMI (木上 益治, 9 credits for animation, 2 references in news messages at ANN, Wikipedia page with reading きがみ よしじ = KIGAMI Yoshiji and ca. 30 credits from 1980-2010 including Akira and KOR movie 1, Allcinema with きがみ・よしじ and 10 credits).
The confusion here may be understandable as 益治 has 2 valid ENAMDICT readings = Masuharu, Masuji and it's not really clear to me how he came up with "Yoshiji" as reading.

The Wikipedia page also mentions something about using pseudonyms
  • 多田 文雄 resp. 多田 文男 for animation work (the latter would be Fumio TADA 多田 文男 with 4 credits at ANN, including Clannad TV) and
  • 三好 一郎 for directing work (which would be Ichirou MIYOSHI 三好 一郎 with 8 credits at ANN, including Clannad TV)
but I'm not exactly sure about this part (Clannad TV is amongst his credits in the Wikipedia page); someone with real knowledge of Japanese might want to check this paragraph.
