Chiharu Watanabe (渡辺 千春 Watanabe Chiharu?) is a Japanese professional wrestler, better known for his ring name Kanjyuro Matsuyama (松山 勘十郎 Matsuyama Kanjūrō?). He has worked in Toryumon and Michinoku Pro Wrestling, but is more famous for his long career in Osaka Pro Wrestling. Along with Kikutaro and Stalker Ichikawa, he is considered one of the greatest three comedy wrestlers in Japan.
Watanabe trained in the Último Dragón Gym and graduated in the 13 Toryumon school class term, debuting in Toryumon Mexico in 2004 against Small Dandy Fujii. He adopted the gimmick of Kanjyuro Matsuyama, a flamboyant, kumadori-wearing kabuki actor. Matsuyama still competed in Mexico until 2006, teaming up with Milanito Collection a.t. and wrestling in low profile matches. In 2005, however, he was sent to Chikara as a Toryumon representative, accompanying his master Skayde and trying to apply for the Young Lions Cup before being eliminated by Icarus. Upon his return to Toryumon, he left for Japan and never came back to Mexico.
