Akari Sakura is the main heroine of Twinkle and Ruby and Labra's human partner. She is 12 years old (after episode 17) and a student in the 6th grade of Winston Academy. She's a shy but gentle girl who's understanding of those around her. Because of her older sister's popularity, Akari has an inferiority complex and is jealous of her sister.

Leon is Dian's human partner and the oldest candidate to the Jewel Star Grand Prix, at the age of 15. Hailing from Austria, he has high awareness skills through magic and is an excellent swordsman, a skill which he combines with magic. His pen turns into his sword and he uses it in every battle. Miria has a crush on him and he admires Akari's determination in her magic studies. His past is tragic due to the loss of his dog, Roger, during his childhood, just before he met Dian. Dian encourages him to cheer up and never become depressed or shameful in front of the grave of Leon's departed pet. Leon's dream is to be the leader of Jewel Land and improve the relationship between the human world and Jewel Land.

Nicola is Titana's human partner and the youngest of all the Jewel Star contestants. He's a genius pianist from Russia and a smart aleck who annoys people with his boasting and condescension. He believes only Sara can measure up to him in magical knowledge.

!!'''Alma'''
!!!Voiced by: Creator/MegumiTakamoto (Alma), Kanako Sasaki (Laiya)
Alma is Diana and Opal's human partner and the main antagonist of Twinkle. As a character of many secrets and twists, this section is massive spoiler territory. '''Do not read on if you have an interest in the show and dislike spoilers.'''

* TheAce: She's good at everything she tries to do in the OVA.
* {{Adorkable}}: OVA.
* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: Was shunned in the human world for showing her magical powers.
* AntiVillain: [[SlidingScaleOfAntiVillains Type II.]] She's not a horrible person, she's just saddened and enraged at her destiny; the only times she's genuinely evil are when she's possessed by the Battest, which is a sentient, but not rational, ArtifactOfDoom.

* CombatPragmatist: In the Jewel Star Grand Prix, she doesn't hesitate to use harmful spells on her opponents even though it's specifically forbidden to do so.

* DemonicPossession: Gets possessed by the Battest and becomes more powerful, even injuring Leon during the Jewel Star Grand Prix.
* DespairEventHorizon: Lost her mind and will to live when Diana died, thus letting the Battest do as it pleased.
* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: The opening of the OVA suggests this of the female students of Winston Academy. Doesn't happen in the OVA proper though.
* FelonyMisdemeanor: In the OVA, hearing the other students criticize Akari's drawings causes her to go on a misanthropic tirade.

* KnightOfCerebus: The tone of the story becomes darker and sadder whenever she's around. Averted for the OVA, probably since she's not a villain in that, not anymore.
* MeaningfulName: The name she uses while hiding her identity, 'Laiya', sounds like 'liar'.
* MementoMacGuffin: Opal might as well be one from her mother.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Has this reaction when the Battest is let loose and it starts destroying everything in sight.
* MysteriousWatcher: Keeps watching Akari's progress before the reveal in episode 23.

** PurpleIsTheNewBlack

!!'''Battest'''
A forbidden tome containing all the dark magic born from the negative emotions of human beings. Fearing that the dark magic might destroy both worlds, Jewelina sealed it away in the book and banished it to an unknown location. Fealina attempted to unseal it to use a spell that would take her powers away, and nearly caused a catastrophe. She then reformed the seal into the birthmarks of her children, using up all her power in the process and falling into an unending sleep as a result. The main conflict of this season concerns Alma attempting to unleash it for her own purposes.

* ArtifactOfDoom
* BiggerBad: It's the greater evil of the series, but since it's an inanimate object, it can't do much by itself, having to rely on psychic possession and such.
* DemonicPossession: [[spoiler:Possesses Alma during the Grand Prix arc.]]
* EvilWeapon: [[spoiler:In its sword form.]]
* SealedEvilInACan
* TomeOfEldritchLore

!!'''The Sakura Family'''
!!!Voiced by: Midori Takahashi (Marie), HidenobuKiuchi (Akira) and Creator/YukaIguchi (Monica)
Akari's family is composed of, aside from herself, her parents and her older sister Monica. Her father is a ship architect and her mother is the chief editor of a magazine. Monica attends the same school as Akari and is student council president; additionally, she has a job as an idol.

* TheAce: Monica is seemingly great at everything she does.
* BumblingDad / HenpeckedHusband: Akira at first seems lazy and unattentive. Marie has a tendency to order him around to which he complies.
** HiddenDepths: His episode reveals that he is quite the competent and beloved worker.
* CoolBigSis: Monica is very kind and proper, concerned about her sister and admired by all of her schoolmates.
* ADayInTheLimelight: Episode 11 for Akira, episode 30 for Marie, episode 33 for Monica.
* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Some female students at Winston Academy have this reaction to Monica.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: None of them are aware of Akari's adventures in Jewel Land, and think Ruby and Labra are normal pets.
* {{Nepotism}}: Monica had a lot of help from Marie's position at a magazine in becoming an idol. She is aware that it gives people in the business certain ''impressions'' of her and she tries to break out of them by doing her absolute best at any job she's given, as shown in episode 33.
* NiceGirl: Monica. Becoming famous hasn't stopped her from working for the improvement of her school, and she worries that she's not able to spend time with Akari.
* ParentsAsPeople: Akari perceives her mother as neglectful of her. As the series goes on, it is shown that this is not really the case; Monica's career needs high-maintenance, but that won't stop their mother from caring for Akari when she's truly distressed.
** Akira seems to be pretty much emotionally absent from Akari's life, though that can probably be partially blamed on the fact that he's the least developed character in Akari's family.
* ThemeNaming: The mother and the eldest daughter have foreign names (Marie and Monica) and the father and the youngest daughter's names are anagrams of each other (Akira and Akari). Also, alliteration.

!!'''Judy'''
!!!Voiced by: HisakoKanemoto
Judy studied in the Magic Academy 12 years before Akari. Akari met her in episode 8 when she time-travelled to the past through the magic of the Academy's bell, which Judy used to ring. Judy's insecurities were very similar to Akari's, and they inspired each other to do their best in the Jewel Star Grand Prix. And so Judy became the champion of her year. Her Jewelpet partner is Prase.

* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: She is like a mirror of Akari.
* FamedInStory: She's very famous in Jewel Land as a winner of the Grand Prix, and is fondly remembered by her teachers.
* GirlishPigtails
* HairDecorations: Two four-leaf-clover-shaped pins.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold
* HeroOfAnotherStory: Is the previous Grand Prix champion, and we're given glimpses of her self-growth.
* InnocentBlueEyes
* IntergenerationalFriendship: She's 12 years older than Akari, but thanks to time travel, they're the same age when they meet.
* {{Oireland}}: Very possible. She dresses in green and has a clover motif about her, which are prime Irish stereotypes. Plus she looks generally European.
* PhenotypeStereotype: Blue-eyed blonde, probably hails from Europe.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: Only appears in episode 8, but was such a source of inspiration for Akari that her presence is felt throughout much of the season.
* YouthfulFreckles

!!'''Jolly and Merry'''
Jolly and Merry are the mascots of Jewel Land's mail order magazine, the Jewel Net Harada. They're twin female anthropomorphic dogs. Jolly has cream colored fur and wears a blue Playboy bunny outfit while Merry has brown colored fur and wears a red Playboy bunny outfit. They present recommended magic goods from the magic mail order. Moldavite [[LovableSexManiac likes them]] and is addicted to the mail orders, which often makes Halite angry.

* AlwaysIdenticalTwins
* MsFanservice: At least in-universe. You, dear reader, would probably need to be a [[FurryFandom specific kind of person]] to appreciate them.
* PlayboyBunny
* RedOniBlueOni: Subverted. Though they're color-coded, they have no (contrasting) personalities to speak of.

* ReiAyanamiExpy: She's a young girl with a SugarAndIcePersonality who has short blue hair and red eyes.
