School: Born on August 19, 1986 in Seitoku Academy, a member of the Japanese women's national team and affiliated with the East Club.

Field position: main attacker/reception/auxiliary attacker/foot lifter/libero, enjoys the title of "All-Japanese All-around Beautiful Girl".

Kimura was born in Shanghai, China.

After that, his family was naturalized in Yashio City, Yutama Prefecture, and later moved to Tokyo.

Blood type: O, family members: father, mother, sister (Misato Kimura, Malaysia/Freeman).

The length is 184CM, the weight is 66KG, the ear height is 298CM, and the block height is 293CM.

When I was in village elementary school, I studied at Dorsey Elementary School in Shinbe City, Tokyo.

I like volleyball because I was influenced by my parents (especially my mother).

In the second grade of elementary school, Akikawa JVC joined the vocational training team.

Murakami himself said that his current defensive skills are a good foundation he laid in JVC Akikawa.

When I was in sixth grade, I participated in the Tokyo Shimbun Cup as a representative and won the championship.

In high school, Kimura entered the famous volleyball school Chengde Academy Middle School.

Chengde Academy has many famous players.

As the ancestors of Kimura, Oyama Kana, Araki Eka, Oyama Miyu, etc. are all very prestigious players in the student volleyball world.

Kimura was not tall when he entered middle school, only 163cm, so he was still playing his old position as a free agent.

But in the third grade of middle school, his height increased by 15cm, reaching 178cm, so his position on the field also changed from the original free man to the secondary attacker.

Just like that, the almighty girl started a new challenge!

Among them, in the second grade of middle school, Kimura suffered the first injury in his volleyball career and broke a finger on his left hand.

Fortunately, nothing serious happened after that.

In the third year of middle school, Seitoku Academy, as the main force, won the All-Japan Middle School Volleyball Players Rights Conference and won awards such as the JOC Cup.

At this point, Kimura began to become famous and received attention from all parties.

In 2002, Kimura entered Chengde Academy High School.

At that time, the high school volleyball world was in the era of fierce confrontation between Chengde Oyama Kanai and Tammy Sakurahara.

However, Chengde Academy is still slightly better in terms of overall strength and has won championships in some major events.

Kimura began to represent Chengde Academy in the spring high school competition in 2003.

This summer was also a time when Kimura’s volleyball life was turned upside down.

Due to the serious injury of All-Japan women's secondary attacker Kim Yumi Suzuki, Kimura officially landed in the 2003 Japan World Cup, one of the three major world volleyball events, as Suzuki's substitute for the first time!

This caused quite a strong response in Japan, and words of solidarity from the "super high school girls" poured into Jumu Village.

Because of his cute smile, increasingly comprehensive skills, and good grasp of opportunities, Kimura began his life journey of being called into the All-Japan Women's National Team.

In 2004, Kimura once again represented Chengde College in the Spring High School Games.

But unfortunately, this time Kimura accidentally stepped on the opponent's foot when he was killing his body in the first game and sprained it.

After emergency treatment, Kimura was forced to play.

In the final battle for the Spring High School Championship, Chengde lost to Kyushu Cultural College 1:3.

After Gao Chun, as the competition year of the Athens Olympics in Greece, Kimura was once again called to the All-Japan Women's National Team.

Although Kimura came on as a substitute for the Italian women's volleyball team in the previous unsuccessful match at the Japan Olympics, his performance was eye-catching and his spikes were decisive.

On August 13, 2004, at the opening ceremony of the Athens Olympic Games in Greece, the entire Japanese delegation entered the venue.

Kimura once again became a popular target for Japanese sports reporters when the Japanese players raised the Japanese Maruyama flag, which symbolizes the "center of the sun."

One of the most famous promotional photos at the time was a photo of Kimura and Fukuhara Ai's tycoon table tennis.

Both of them smiled cutely.

The All-Japan Women's Competition started on the 14th (the next day), but at this time Kimura was already suffering from a waist injury.

Because of years of hard training on the volleyball court, the situation was not optimistic, and the doctor diagnosed her with lumbar disc herniation.

So in the Olympics, Kimura was only occasionally substituted as a substitute.

At that time, in order to show support for Kimura, Kimura's family went to Athens from Japan. What a pity!

But Kimura, who has special feelings for China, finally insisted on watching the Olympic women's volleyball showdown, the match between China and Russia, with his family.

Also after that, Kimura said that his dedication to volleyball was so intense for the first time after this game!

Therefore, in the heart of this 18-year-old girl, she began to long for the Chinese Olympic Games four years ago.

After the 2004 Athens Olympics in Greece, Kimura still represented Japan in the Asian Youth Women's Volleyball Championship.

But due to rest and recovery from a back injury, I have been participating in games as a substitute since then.

This situation lasted until February 14, 2005, because on this day, Kimura graduated from high school and officially landed in the East Club, which is the club of Chengde's ancestors Oyama and Araki.

At the same time, the center of her life shifted again from Tokyo to Otsu City, Shiga Prefecture.

At this point, Kimura has been selected as the All-Japan Women for five consecutive years and has been shortlisted for the final 12 for four years.
