Yuichiro "Jienotsu" Nagashima (長島☆自演乙☆雄一郎, Nagashima Jien'otsu Yūichirō?, born July 2, 1984) is a Japanese welterweight kickboxer, and a cosplayer, fighting out of Nishinomiya, Hyogo, currently competing at K-1. His rank is 2nd dan black belt in Nippon Kempo.

Yuichiro Nagashima was born in 1984 in the city of Nishinomiya, Hyogo. He started learning judo when he was an elementary school. He continued training Judo until the graduation of junior high school. He decided to be a professional fighter when he was at the 3rd year of junior high school because he watched Andy Hug on television. Moreover, Nagashima swore to entertain the audience. During his high school life, he practiced full contact karate, but he attended training only once or twice a week.

Nagashima joined the team of Nippon Kempo and started training seriously when he was matriculated in University of Marketing and Distribution Sciences. In addition, Nagashima started participating professional mixed martial arts bouts. He also started cosplaying anime characters during his entrance to the ring.
