Timeline
Minori Kimura (樹村 みのり) is a Japanese manga artist.
Her stories' settings throughout the 1960s and early 1970s were varied, including places like Auschwitz, Vietnam, and the slums of Rio de Janeiro.
She covered topics interesting to young girls, elaborately drawing out the feelings and motivations of her characters.
She made her professional debut in 1964 at the age of 14 with her short story Picnic (ピクニック), published by Shueisha in the Spring Break Special issue of Ribon.
During her school breaks, Kimura continued writing short stories published in magazines such as COM and Ribon Comic.
Critics and scholars often count her among the Year 24 Group, a nebulous group of female artists considered to have revolutionized manga (Japanese comics for girls) in the 1970s.
After graduating from college, Kimura took a short break from creating manga before returning with "Gift" (贈り物), published by Shogakukan in Bessatsu Shōjo Comic in 1974.
The short story discussed the struggles of elementary school life.
She later published "This Side of the Rapeseed Blossom Field" (菜の花畑のこちら側), a short story about four young college girls living together.
caused her to gain wider popularity.
From that point, Kimura generally published manga in Shōjo manga (aimed at teenage girls), Seinen manga (aimed at young men), and ladies' comics (aimed at adult women) magazines published by Akita Shoten and Kodansha.
In recent years, Kimura has published fewer works, with most of her releases being reprints of older works.
She has also created several health-related manga.
One of her works finished its run in 2008 in Mugenkan, a magazine published by Asahi Sonorama.
Rachel Thorn, an anthropologist noted for her work on manga, called Kimura "one of the most brilliant and largely forgotten members of the [Year 24 Group]".
Thorn praised her for creating manga with "explicitly social and feminist messages" and for addressing "issues of interest to women, including sexuality, work, and health."
