Uninvited student to Guy, the 39th successor to Bushinryu. Kimberly had an ordinary upbringing, but she's a genuine prodigy who graduated college early...and is very enthusiastic about being a ninja because she thinks it's cool. Loves '80s pop culture. She is regarded as the new generation counterpart to Chun-Li.

//I wasn't expecting Kimberly to be my favorite among the newcomers of SF6. I ran her when I played the open beta last year. I kinda dropped her in the fullgame in favor of Cammy but maybe one day, I'll pick her up again.//

Uninvited student to Guy, the 39th successor to Bushinryu. Kimberly had an ordinary upbringing, but she's a genuine prodigy who graduated college early...and is very enthusiastic about being a ninja, because she thinks its cool. Loves '80s pop culture. She is regarded as the new generation counterpart to Chun-Li.

Appearance: Kimberly is a slender, brown eyed, black American woman with dark brown skin. Her hair is braided in five sections, with the tips dyed blue. Her default costume consists of a headband and ascot with African-inspired patterns, a red cropped short-sleeved puffer jacket with white trims, red fingerless gloves, black skin-tight capris that bare the sides of her hips, and red sneakers with white soles and blue laces. She also has yellow wraps across her wrists and legs, and carries a blue cassette player on her leg with matching earbuds.

Personality: She is a spunky girl with a boundless amount of energy and enthusiasm. Kimberly has a love for art and all things '80s. She's a prodigy who graduated college early and has an insanely high combat potential. In both her and JP's arcade story and like Chun-Li who searches for answers in finding her father by meeting Gen, Kimberly is also searching for answers about the whereabouts of her uncle, Albert Jackson, who is also Ken's advisor by meeting JP. In Dee Jay's arcade story, she was also shown to be mature and insightful, while giving some thought and advice to Dee Jay about the new songs he needs to be popularized and the reason Dee Jay is inspired by her when he finally composed a new song for his new albums.

Fighting Style

As the student of Guy, Kimberly's uses her master's famed Bushinryu style of ninjutsu, and also uses some of Guy's moves such as both his somersault or a leaping side kick, and a version of Hozanto that uses her front elbow to damage her opponent rather than using a turning elbow. She is themed after a ninja, though with a modern twist and unique interpretations of ninja abilities: she is shown to use spray paints used for graffiti, and these various colored spray paints are involved in many of her skills as replacements for common ninja tropes (eg. a cloud of paint acting as a smoke bomb when she teleports, and her Super Art spraying her opponent with graffiti). Most of her acrobatic moves and animations are also based on cheerleading poses.

Moveset

Kimberly's playstyle revolves around speed and keeping opponents guessing, as she is very agile and possesses a multitude of mobility options. Due to the variety of options she gains out of her movement abilities, she plays effectively as a bait and mix-up character.

Kimberly possesses a unique resource known as Shuriken Bombs. She starts with two bombs (which do not restock on round end), and is able to throw these Shuriken Bombs as delayed explosives to force opponents to react, or to extend combos as the bombs deal vertical knockback. Kimberly is able to restock her Shuriken Bombs with Genius At Play: a normal restock gives 1 can, while an Overdrive restock gives 2 cans and allows her to use Shuriken Bomb Spread, which throws out two bombs instead of one.

Kimberly's Sprint can be cancelled into either a stop in place, or three different kicks (light, medium, heavy) that are useful against blocking opponents. If she sprints onto an opponent, she performs an automatic rebounding kick that causes Kimberly to leap off the opponent (Arc Step) and gives her several new options like a throw (Bushin Izuna Otoshi) or a delayed dive kick (Bushin Hojin Kick). She also has a "smoke bomb" teleport (Hidden Variable) as a way to surprise opponents or stay on the offensive.

Kimberly's first Super Art is Bushin Beats, an automatic sprint that, if it connects, causes her to deliver a beatdown to the opponent; she can throw a Shuriken Bomb at the end (Bushin Thunderous Beats) to tack on more damage at the cost of one bomb stock. Her second Super Art is Bushin Scramble, which moves her into the air and acts as a divekick, then transitions into multiple acrobatic wall-jumping tackles ending with a divebomb; both the normal and aerial version (Soaring Bushin Scramble) are excellent for avoiding projectiles or ground attacks. Her third Super Art is Bushin Ninjastar Cypher, causing Kimberly to aggressively spraypaint her opponent in the air, ending with a shoulder tackle that slams them into the ground in a graffiti pattern that persists through the round; upon using the move, Kimberly activates her music player, increasing her walk speed and attack power by 11% for the rest of the game.
