Kim Crawford

## Kimberly "Kim" Crawford

* Wasabi Warrior
* Everyday

**Kim Crawford** is the deuteragonist of Kickin' It. She is a tough and confident martial artist who was born on March 12, 1997. She is the only girl in the Wasabi Dojo. That doesn't mean she doesn't have the skills to go head-to-head with any of the boys in the dojo. Kim's skills are virtually equal to Jack's, the only other black belt in their dojo, and she isn't afraid to use that to her advantage at times. She is a former member of the rival dojo, The Black Dragons, but joined the Bobby Wasabi Academy after finding out the Black Dragons were cheaters. Many people underestimate her because she's a girl. Kim also doesn't like being called "just another pretty face". Kim has been known to lose her temper quickly, and she won't hesitate to threaten or attack a person, usually causing Jack to step in before she attacks them. In Hit the Road Jack, it is revealed that she has feelings for Jack, which she admitted to Joan Malone. She is Jack's girlfriend and main love interest.

It was been confirmed by Olivia Holt that Kim will not be returning for the beginning of Season 4, due to the filming of her new show, "I Didn't Do It", but she made a guest appearance in Seaford Hustle, You Don't Know Jack and the series finale.

## Brief Background

*Looking for a longer overview? Find one here!*
Kim is currently a member of the Wasabi Warriors, and a former member of the Seaford Pep Squad, and the Seaford High School News, as she is no longer in high school. She denies having a crush on Jack, even though it is speculated by many people that she does. In Hit the Road Jack, she confirmed that she liked Jack in a conversation with Joan.

She doesn't like it when people see her as "just another pretty face." In Wasabi Warriors, during the fight between Jack and some Black Dragons, Kim waves at Jack when he jumped on her table to get away from his opponents for the moment.

At Falafel Phil's, Kim talks to Jack trying to persuade him to join the Black Dragons, and even brings him back to her dojo, but he declines since he is bound by the Wasabi Code to stay at the Bobby Wasabi Dojo. Kim used to believe that Bobby Wasabi was a big joke, before joining the dojo. At the tournament, Kim was about to face Jack in the Peg Kick, but when a Black Dragon cheats by trying to break Jack's leg, Kim quits the Black Dragons, calling her Sensei a cheater and a big baby. The next day, she arrives at Bobby Wasabi, catching Jack's apple with her foot when he almost drops it. She wants to enter Bobby Wasabi, but Jerry makes her take a test, which she easily passes by beating a bunch of dummies senseless. As of Two Date and a Funeral, Jack and Kim are officially dating.

## Personality

Kim is very independent in the things that she does and doesn't want to rely on others for support. In the episode Ricky Weaver, it is shown that she used to have a celebrity crush on popstar sensation Ricky Weaver before finding out his true intentions. Kim is unnervingly loyal to her friends and will go to long lengths to help them with their problems. She also has a reputation of boys being scared of her because she is so tough and also boys like her including a prince, her ex-boyfriend, and Jack. She used to be in the Black Dragons, but later quit when she found out they were big, lying cheaters. It is told many people have a crush on Kim. Her catchphrase is " Boom goes the dynamite! Boom!" and "This is my jam!" Usually, most of the Wasabi boys treat her similarly to a boy. Most of them come to her for advice on dating or just other things. At times Kim may feel a bit left out and all the boys treat her like a sister besides Jack by the end of the series.

## Appearance

Kim is seen as a pretty girl with mid-back blonde hair, which she curls in the later seasons, and a relatively average height with a slightly muscular build, due to the fact she taken karate and gymnastics. She has pretty, brown eyes. She was on a gymnastics team and she was a cheerleader.

Later on in Karate Games, they nearly kiss for real on top of the Hollywood sign. In Kickin' It On Our Own, Kim is upset that Jack didn't keep in touch with her, therefore she is also angry. At the end of the episode, she breaks up with her boyfriend, Brett, as she still has feelings for Jack and she agrees to go on a date with him at the end. In Two Dates and a Funeral, Albert makes the highest bid on Kim, which turns out to be for Jack.
