* ScrewedByTheLawyers: Another reason why Sanrio's American branch rarely brings up any of the characters from the Jewelpet franchise compared to Japan (such as live appearances at Sanrio Puroland and Harmonyland, and prominent on their Japanese site) is due to being a co-creation with Sega (via Sega Toys). However, Sega's American and Japanese branch are infamous for not getting along. [[LoopholeAbuse That didn't stop Sanrio's American branch from acknowledging the Jewelpet series at least three times in the past.]] [[note]] The Jewelpets was first mentioned in [[http://www.hellokitty.com/hellokittyblog/buzz/jewelpets/ in 2011]] and [[https://web.archive.org/web/20160609164635/http://www.hellokitty.com/hellokittyblog/?page=156 2016]] that was on there official "Hello Kitty Blog" which includes a brief character description for the main Jewelpets (Ruby, Garnet, Sapphie, Labra, and Peridot). The second is the 2011 Nintendo DS game "Loving Life With Hello Kitty & Friends" which features Ruby, Garnet, and Sapphie alongside other Sanrio characters. And in the early half of Main/TheNewTens, some Sanrio gift shops sold merchandises from the franchise like bags and pens with the characters on them. [[/note]] The same can be said for the ''Rilu Rilu Fairilu'' franchise, Sanrio's second character franchise that was co-created with Sega Toys.

* PopCultureUrbanLegends: IMDB has several listings for English dubs of the shows that were produced in Canada, as well as one of the movie, on several filmographies of Canadian actors, including Creator/ShannonChanKent as Garnet. They are likely fake, as there's no evidence proving their existence.
