Background
He's one of the first seven members of Raimon Junior High's soccer team, appearing in episode one playing video games on a Nintendo DS.

Appearance
Kurimatsu and Shourinji Ayumu are two of the smallest members in Raimon. He has chipmunk-like features with round black eyes and exaggerated buck-teeth. His hair is also styled to match his facial features, colored brown and kept short with the exception of his sideburns, which grow past his ears. Kurimatsu's hair forms a spike atop his head, making it look like a chestnut.

Personality
He's very energetic and positive, always praising members (typically Kabeyama) and raising the overall mood and spirit of the team. He is kind and puts his team before himself as shown in season three, where he injures his leg in an attempt to pass the ball.

Season 1
He along with other Raimon members are once again motivated to practice soccer seriously after being threatened to disband. His energetic demeanor and personality helped the team greatly in winning the Football Frontier.

Season 2
Kurimatsu joined in the fight with Raimon against Aliea Academy, but was greatly disheartened by the departure of Kazemaru Ichirouta, which lead to his own leave from the team. He was later seen again as a member of Dark Emperors under the control of the Aliea Meteorite along with other former Raimon members. Endou Mamoru's love for soccer brought him back to his senses, leading to the disbandment of Dark Emperors.

Season 3
Kurimatsu, along with previously acquainted soccer players from all over Japan, tried out for a position in Inazuma Japan and succeeded in becoming a member. However, during Inazuma Japan's match against The Empire he broke his leg and was replaced by a recovered Fubuki.

After the graduation of the 3rd-year students, Endou chose Kurimatsu to become the new captain of Raimon's soccer team.
