Biography
Kijima was born in Sapporo on March 29. In elementary school, Kijima had a passion for singing and acting in front of his peers. He was also a fan of anime and western films, notably the Gundam series. These passions inspired Kijima to enroll at Sapporo Manga, Anime, & Voice Actor Vocational School. After graduating, Kijima worked in a factory in Tochigi Prefecture for a year to save up money before moving to Tokyo. Later at a drinking party, he met with a former colleague who recommended him to Mausu Promotion. He later joined one of their training centers. After some help from Akio Ōtsuka, he began working as a professional voice actor in 2010. In 2019, Kijima, along with the rest of the cast for Hypnosis Mic: Division Rap Battle, won the singing award at the 13th Seiyu Awards.
