    Kira Deco 5 

Pink Oomiya / Shiny Pink

Voiced by: Aki Toyosaki

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pinku.png
Pink Oomiya is a member of the group Kira Deco 5 and the series' main protagonist. She and the other members come from the human world to search for the fragments of the Mirror Ball, called Deco Stones, in order to save their world. She was born in Saitama prefecture and attends middle school. She is cheerful and outgoing, but underneath that she is pretty insecure of herself and has trouble making friends. She loves decoration and bonds with Ruby over this shared interest.

She stays in Ruby's Kira Kira Shop while in Jewel Land. She goes by the codename Shiny Pink, though she doesn't have good fighting skills like the rest of the group. She is an expert when it comes to decorating things with shiny jewels and decors.

  • 11th-Hour Superpower: Synchs with Ruby to create her Jewel of Fate in episode 51.
  • Aerith and Bob: Unlike Blue Knight, it's not lampshaded.
  • Big Damn Heroes: In episode 50, after recovering from her shock, she saves her teammates who were under attack by Kaiser.
  • Classical Anti-Hero: Although she has a happier demeanour than past protagonists, she still has severe self-esteem issues and often questions her worth as a member of the Kira Deco 5.
  • Colourful Theme Naming
  • Costume Porn: She gets to wear various lovingly detailed outfits throughout the season.
  • Curtains Match the Window: Pink hair and eyes.
  • Embarrassing Old Photo: She carries one of these around to remind herself of what she used to be (short, unfashionable, glum). Ruby thinks it's because she likes the photo and this leads to a misunderstanding.
  • Everything's Better with Sparkles: Her preferred style of decoration.
  • Divine Parentage: Her cousin is the goddess of Jewel Land. Since they're blood related (note their appearance), Pink more than likely has God blood in her.
  • Friendless Background: Had no friends before joining the Kira Deco 5.
  • Genki Girl: She's one of the anime's more outwardly cheerful main characters.
  • The Heart: Decorisky chose her specifically because of this trait. More specifically, "She makes the hearts of those around her shine".
  • Heart Broken Badass: Her crush rejected her before the start of the series because of her appearance. This made her outspoken against love, but is willing to grab a chance when she gets it.
  • Heart Is an Awesome Power: While she bemoans what she perceives as her lack of utility in the group, Decorisky vehemently disagrees.
  • Height Angst: She was very short when she was younger. In Coal's illusion, she becomes very lean and tall, as per her inner desires.
  • Heroic BSoD: Episode 50. The shock of Ruby dying combined with an attack from Kaiser causes her to allucinate about her dream high school life. She forgets all about Jewel Land and her team, but still retains some vague memories of Ruby which make her come around.
  • The Heroine: The plot revolves around her more than the other members.
  • Humble Goal: Her many-times-stated biggest dream is to become popular in high school.
  • I Just Want to Have Friends: She wants to be popular because she has no friends outside the Kira Deco 5.
  • Love Hurts: It really hurts when you fall time and again for bishies who are only worried about how they look to third parties.
  • Memento MacGuffin: The diamond star-shaped Deco that she put on Ruby's Jewel Pod in episode 2. It stays on even when the Jewel Pod merges with Jewelina's, and near the finale allows Pink to remember Ruby while stuck inside a dream.
  • Nepotism: Believes that she was chosen because she's Decorisky's cousin. It's not the case. Decorisky took into account what she had to offer and knew she was the most important member.
  • Rail Enthusiast: Has a fixation on the Shonan-Shinjuku line.
  • Rookie Red Ranger: Last recruited member of the team and ultimately, the most powerful.
  • Sacred First Kiss: She's embarrassed with the prospect of kissing her crush in episode 16, and Garnet's speech about the trope keeps running through her head.
  • The Smurfette Principle: Only female member of the Kira Deco 5.
  • That Man Is Dead: Feels this way about her younger self.
  • Theme Naming: She and her teammates' last names are that of Japanese railway stations. Hers is from one in Saitama.
  • This Loser Is You: She wanted to have friends as a child, but failed until she joined the Kira Deco 5.
  • Unlimited Wardrobe: She gets lots of outfits, while her teammates only have two outfits - one for Summer and one for Winter.
  • Unwanted Harem: Her teammates for the duration of episode 34. A twist occurs when Ruby uses her powers to gradually combine the boys into one.

Retsu Akagi / Burning Red

Voiced by: Takuma Terashima

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/chara_img_red.png
Retsu is the leader of the Kira Deco 5. Born in the Gunma prefecture, Retsu is a hot blooded junior high school student who is full of courage and confidence. He trains himself hard and stays optimistic for the sake of the group. However, he is also dimwitted and one-track-minded to the point of annoying his teammates (especially his brother) and the Jewelpets.

He lives in a tree house during his stay in Jewel Land. He goes by the codename Burning Red and has exceptional fighting skills with his fists.

  • 11th-Hour Superpower: Synchs with Angela to create his Jewel of Fate in episode 51.
  • The Ace: Despite his obnoxiousness, he's very good at everything he endeavours to do. This is a thorn on Midori's side.
  • Animal Motifs: The crane, which is the symbol of his homeland, Gunma.
  • Annoying Younger Sibling: Inverted. He's the older sibling to Midori, who finds him idiotic and overbearing. His teammates share Midori's opinion.
  • Badass Normal: Has no magical ability, but is incredibly powerful.
  • Bare-Fisted Monk: Is exclusively a physical fighter.
  • Big Brother Instinct: He's very protective of his little brother Midori.
  • Big Damn Heroes: He frequently pops out of nowhere and saves the day when his teammates (especially Midori) or the main Jewelpets are in a pinch.
  • Brainwashed and Crazy: Kaiser mind-breaks him into evil in episode 48 by convincing him that his brother hates him.
  • Calling Your Attacks: All of his attacks have "BURNING" attached to them.
  • Captain Oblivious: He completely ignores Midori's feelings of rivalry and inferiority, even though Midori all but slaps him in the face with them.
  • The Cobbler's Children Have No Shoes: Kaiser tells him a story about a big brother who left his little brother in the woods. Retsu immediately says that big brother is in the wrong. That situation is, of course, the backstory that soured his relationship with Midori. When he realizes this, he enters full denial mode ("I am righteous... He doesn't hate me...").
  • Colourful Theme Naming
  • Curtains Match the Window: Red eyes and hair.
  • Declaration of Protection: During the incident where Midori was left alone in the forest, he yelled at the mountain to give him back to him and that he'd never leave him alone again. And this is why he's so overprotective of him in the present.
  • Decoy Protagonist: Because he's The Leader, and the first to introduce himself.
  • Deus Exit Machina: Because he's the strongest member and immune to Coal's clouds, he's frequently away from the group and their adventures and only shows up when things are really desperate for them. The in-story reason is that he is training somewhere.
  • Evil Costume Switch: Episode 48.
  • Exposition Diagram: He takes the time to detailedly explain the situation on Earth to the Jewelpets (and the audience) through some type 2 pictures.
  • Fearless Fool: No matter how impossible the foe is, he'll just charge head-on WITH BURNING PASSION AND LOVE FOR JUSTICE!
  • Fiery Redhead: Red hair and a personality to go with it.
  • Fireball Eyeballs: Occasionally sports these, in case it wasn't obvious already.
  • The Fool: He's so optimistic and self-assured that he's too unaware of his failings for Coal's magic to affect him.
  • Foreshadowing: The Deco Stones have no clue what his Jewel of Fate might be, but the audience gets hints as early as episode 15 by watching his interactions with Angela which are parallel to the other, more certain relationships.
    • Red Herring: Since he interacts more frequently with Ruby than the other Jewelpets, some might think she is bonded to him.
  • For Great Justice: He loves to rant on and on about justice.
  • The Friend Nobody Likes: His teammates and the Jewelpets are annoyed by his personality, and start resenting him when they hear about his story with Midori.
  • Genre Refugee: He's a purposefully over-the-top Shōnen hero stereotype in a show for little girls (although said show can easily be accused of Genre-Busting).
  • Hot-Blooded: All the time.
  • Hot Paint Job: The outfit he gets after creating his Jewel of Fate.
  • Idiot Hero: He's not terribly intelectual and runs entirely on passion.
  • Japanese Delinquents: His evil self in episode 48.
  • Knight Templar Big Brother: His overprotectiveness of Midori can get to the point where he blames others for Midori doing something stupid and getting hurt for it.
  • Large Ham: BURNING!!!
  • The Leader: A definite type III given his personality.
  • Leitmotif: An action-y theme which wouldn't be out of place in an old-school Super Robot Genre anime.
  • Meaningful Name: 'Retsu' means 'violent' and the 'aka' in 'Akagi' means 'red'.
  • Never My Fault: Since he believes himself to be the personification of justice, he can't even fathom when things are his fault. This affects most significantly his relationship with Midori.
    "I am righteous! There is no darkness in me!"
  • Pride: Can't apologize to Midori for leaving him in the forest, since he doesn't believe it's his fault. Refusing to admit it leads to him becoming corrupted by Kaiser.
  • Red Is Heroic: His color is red and he's your (parodied) archetypal dumbass hero.
  • Red Oni: To Blue Knight.
  • Scarf of Asskicking: Comes with his Jewel of Fate outfit.
  • Sibling Rivalry: Midori has this with him, but he has no clue.
  • Theme Naming: Akagi station in Midori, Gunma.
  • Training from Hell: Constantly subjects himself to this.
  • Unknown Rival: He believes he has a rivalry with Blue Knight, but the latter couldn't care less.
  • What the Hell, Hero?: His friends' reaction to his incident with Midori.

Blue Knight Ozaki / Blue Knight Blue

Voiced by: Daisuke Ono

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/chara_img_blue.png
Blue Knight is the second member of the Kira Deco 5. He is very beautiful and gallant, always striving to please women. He was an idol singer before joining the team and sometimes still indulges in singing, mostly for the pleasure of Garnet. Garnet hires him as her personal butler and he serves her with all his heart. She has a crush on him although she sometimes treats him like he's below her.

He goes by the codename Blue Knight Blue and has good fighting skills with his legs.

  • 11th-Hour Superpower: Synchs with Garnet to create his Jewel of Fate in episode 51.
  • The Ace: Does everything he's ordered to impeccably and with a suave flair.
  • Aerith and Bob: What Japanese person is legally named Blue Knight? Garnet lampshades it by asking if he's making fun of her when he tells her his name.
  • All Girls Want Bad Boys: Averted. He's normally a nice and very considerate guy towards girls, which is part of his charm, and when he turns into a jerk as Dark Knight Blue, everyone just wants him to turn back.
  • Aloof Ally: He's not particularly close to anyone in the team and tends to ignore the greater good in order to help girls.
  • Alternate Character Reading: Though his name is written in kanji, you're supposed to pronounce it in Engrish "Blue Knight". The regular reading would be Aokishi, which means the same thing.
  • Always Save the Girl: He's never more serious than when a girl is in distress.
  • Badass Longcoat: His Jewel of Fate outfit.
  • Bare-Fisted Monk: Favors fighting with his legs.
  • Battle Butler: He serves as Garnet's personal "sheep" in his stay in Jewel Land.
  • Blue Oni: To Retsu.
  • Bodyguarding a Badass: Theoretically, Garnet is entirely capable of protecting herself with magic.
  • Bodyguard Crush: With Garnet.
  • Boomerang Bigot: Hates men. It's so entrenched in him that his body instinctually backs away from helping Coarumi and he doesn't understand why.
  • Brainwashed and Crazy: Opal (herself brainwashed by Kaiser) turns him into Dark Knight Blue in episode 46.
  • The Casanova: Pink says that he's always thinking about and chasing girls.
  • Chick Magnet: Has managed to attract girls since birth, literally.
  • Colourful Theme Naming
  • Crash-Into Hello: Tries to invoke this with Coarumi when she's feeling down, believing such a romantic encounter will cheer her up.
  • Curtains Match the Window: Blue eyes and hair.
  • Evil Costume Switch: As Dark Knight Blue in episode 46.
  • Expy: Of Hayate the Combat Butler.
  • Idol Singer: His job before joining the group.
  • Icy Blue Eyes: Blue eyes with a cool attitude.
  • Knight in Shining Armor / Prince Charming: He's not actually nobility, but these tropes are part of his image.
  • Lady and Knight: With Garnet.
  • The Lancer: Within the dynamic of the Kira Deco 5.
  • Meaningful Name: His associated color is blue, and he acts like a dreamy gentleman.
  • Mr. Fanservice: He's a pretty boy in servant clothes and the ED sequence has him in a Shirtless Scene with only his vest on, his jeans unbuttoned, and a finger on his lips.
  • Old-School Chivalry: Subverted. While he plays up his princely image for all it's worth, he takes a pretty sexual approach in wooing girls.
  • Pillars of Moral Character: The reason he stays with Garnet is Gimu; she released him from prison, so he owes it to her to stay by her side and serve her.
    • Giri is present as well. He always follows through with Garnet's orders, no matter how humiliating (winning an ugliness contest) or against his nature (saving boys) they are.
  • Pink Girl, Blue Boy: With Garnet.
  • Principles Zealot: He will never hit a girl, even if she's evil, or when he is. He also never listens to or helps guys, even if they're his friends and, yes, even when he's evil.
  • Repetitive Name: His code name, as you can see. His real given name already seems so much like a code name that Decorisky just added another Blue to it, resulting in this.
  • Theme Naming: Ozaki station in Hannan, Osaka.
  • Too Many Belts: Wears belts on his legs.
  • Undying Loyalty: See Pillars of Moral Character.
  • Workaholic: He loves doing favours for girls and doesn't feel comfortable when they don't ask him for anything. This is the reason he turns evil; he felt that Garnet was going easy on him at the time.
  • Wouldn't Hit a Girl: The prospect appalles him.

Midori Akagi / Smart Green

Voiced by: Aya Hirano

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/chara_img_green.png
Midori is the youngest member of Kira Deco 5. He's Retsu's younger brother, with whom he has many issues stemming from a traumatic incident where Retsu left him alone in a forest for many hours. He decided that he'd never depend on his brother again and that he'd beat him someday, but he has come to feel frustrated with his brother's never-ending achievements. He finally finds solace in his relationship with Angela and Labra, with whom he moves in.

He goes by the codename Smart Green and his best characteristic are his reflexes, though he has problems focusing.

  • 11th-Hour Superpower: Synchs with Labra to create his Jewel of Fate in episode 51.
  • Always Someone Better: Feels this way about Retsu.
  • Animal Motifs: Penguins; somewhat appropriate considering the Jewelpet he bonds with is the polar bear.
  • Animal-Themed Superbeing: His Jewel of Fate outfit gives him Labra's ears and claws, plus Titana's tail.
  • Attractive Bent-Gender: Some characters think he'd look good in a dress. Two Imagine Spots are dedicated to that notion. He's not thrilled.
  • Badass Adorable
  • Bare-Fisted Monk
  • Boisterous Weakling
  • Butt-Monkey: He always gets the bad end of the stick, ALWAYS.
  • Colourful Theme Naming
  • Curtains Match the Window: The only member of Kira Deco 5 who averts this. His eyes are colored red instead of green to show his blood ties to Retsu.
  • Determinator
  • Dude Looks Like a Lady: When Pink joined the Kira Deco 5, she thought Midori was a girl because of his hairdo at the time and the fact that Midori is a commonly feminine name. Pink notes that he changed his hairdo since the incident.
  • Family Eye Resemblance: Has red eyes like his brother, making him the exception to the group's Curtains Match the Window designs.
  • Foreshadowing: Since he hangs out with both Angela and Labra, his Jewel of Fate can be either the labradorite or the angelite. See Retsu's entry. It's the labradorite.
  • Gender-Blender Name: Poor guy has to put up with a feminine name in order to fit with the Colourful Theme Naming.
  • Harem Seeker: In episode 23, he feeds Charotte's honey to several Jewelpets, causing them to fall in love with him. His purpose is to defeat Retsu in love.
  • Hot-Blooded: Like his brother, he's very impulsive.
  • House Husband: He does all the house work while staying with Angela and Labra.
  • Hypocritical Heartwarming: He sees Retsu knocked out and tied up in episode 29 and acts completely outraged, surprising Pink with how passionate he is for his big bro's safety. Then he says that that's what he wanted to do to him someday, and is upset that someone beat him to it.
  • Idiot Ball: For someone who's been given The Smart Guy position, he's rather prone to let his grudge towards Retsu cloud his judgement.
  • Interspecies Romance: His brief fling with Charotte.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He developed a jerk streak because of his superiority complex towards Retsu, but is kind towards those he cares about. He also feels troubled when he does something that gets him hurt and Retsu goes around blaming others for it.
  • KidAnova: For the duration of episode 23.
  • Kung-Fu Kid: Considered a master of the art despite being 9.
  • Large Ham
  • Lethal Chef: Everything he cooks burns until it turns into charcoal, including milk.
  • Meaningful Name: 'Midori' means 'green'.
  • Once Done, Never Forgotten: Sometimes gets mocked for the events of episode 23, specifically, him kissing a bee.
  • Sibling Rivalry: One-sidedly with Retsu.
  • The Smart Guy: This is his given position within the team, but his penchant for making plans based solely on his raw hatred for Retsu and which always have a terrible outcome contradict it. However, he IS capable of being the most rational member of the team at important times, as he doesn't have their limiting personality quirks.
  • Spin Attack: Uses these after training with Titana.
  • Tag Along Kid: Substantially younger and smaller than everybody else in the Kira Deco 5.
  • Theme Naming: See Retsu's entry.
  • Throw the Dog a Bone: Episode 36 has him getting a Deco Stone all by himself, while his teammates hold back Retsu from interfering.
  • Too Clever by Half: His plans to one-up Retsu usually fail in spectacular ways.
  • Tsundere: In the harem episode, it's implied that this is what he'd be like in a relationship. He's also flustered when Retsu finally apologizes to him.
  • What Would X Do?: He emulates Blue Knight in order to pick up girls in episode 23.
  • Yank the Dog's Chain: Whenever an opportunity for him to rise above his brother presents itself, expect him to go right back to square zero by virtue of Retsu interfering.

Kiichi Furano / Slow Life Yellow

Voiced by: Yasutaka Sonoda

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/chara_img_yellow.png
Kiichi is the last member of the Kira Deco 5. A heavyweight, he lives a slow, peaceful life in Hokkaido until he joins the group. Kiichi is very gluttonous, with a powerful stomach that can digest anything he eats, even Sapphie's bad cooking. He is a caring and gentle guy. He is also reliable for keeping house, good at sumo and an expert on Haiku. He goes by the codename Slow Life Yellow.

Professor Decorisky

Voiced by: Ai Shimizu

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/professor_decorisky.jpg
Professor Decorisky is Pink's cousin and the scientist who formed the Kira Deco 5 with the purpose of protecting the world from the Dark Magic's influence. She sends them to Jewel Land to search for the Deco Stones and supports them from the human world through comm links.

    Decoranain 

  • Includes Coal, Dian, Kohaku and Tour.

Dark General

Voiced by: Yoji Ueda

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/1360975118070.jpg
The leader of the Decoranain, the Dark General is a mysterious man who gives Coal orders to get the Deco Stones. He appears as a man wearing a mask, and has 4 subordinates called the Four Heavenly Kings who serve him.

Kaiser

Voiced by: Kohei Murakami

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/20121117171709c15.jpg
Kaiser is the only human in the Four Heavenly Kings. First appearing in episode 33, he is given orders to monitor the Kira Deco 5 and plan tactics against them. Although he's a ladies' man, he's an expert spy and can determine people's weaknesses. Kaiser has impressive agility and magic skills and is well versed in disguises.

  • Beam Spam
  • Break Them by Talking: His preferred tactic is to talk about his foes' psychological issues with them, causing them to have a breakdown and/or turn to the dark side.
  • The Chessmaster: He plays people like fiddles.
  • Chick Magnet: At least he claims he can attract any girl (mostly not because he acts like himself but because he acts the part that a given woman wants him to be).
  • The Corrupter: He tappers into Retsu, Opal and Blue Knight's weaknesses in order to turn them evil.
  • The Dragon: He's second-in-command to the Dark general, the only human besides him and proves to be a lot more threatening than any other member of the Decoranain.
  • Exactly What I Aimed At: In episode 50, he attacks Pink knowing that Ruby will get in front of her to protect her; he's aiming to take out the Deco Stone Master and reasons that it'd be simpler to aim at someone she's protective of rather than attacking her directly.
  • Flaw Exploitation: He loves doing this.
  • Hated Hometown: Ohmiya.
  • Hometown Nickname: Gives himself the family name Shibuya to impress Pink.
  • Manipulative Bastard
  • Paper-Thin Disguise: He pretends to be a rabbit to woo Ruby. He succeeds, but it's obvious to the audience that it's an adult human in a rabbit suit. He doesn't even have a snout.
  • Slasher Smile
  • That Man Is Dead: He hates that he comes from Ohmiya and identifies himself with Shibuya. (This sort of stuff is Serious Business in this show.)
  • Twinkle in the Sky: The last we see of him.
  • Vile Villain, Saccharine Show: He has a preference for mind raping his enemies that can yield pretty horrifying results. As a result, he's the only human villain in the entire Jewelpet franchise to not be redeemed.
  • Villain Has a Point: Telling Retsu that Midori getting lost in the forest was his fault. He's right, even if his only intention is to bring him to the dark side.
  • What Happened to the Mouse?: He gets blown away by Ruby's and Pink's combined Jewel Flash spell and isn't seen anymore.

    Others 

Miyuki Ueno

Voiced by: Yoji Ueda

Miyuki is an old man who came to Jewel Land when he was younger and feeling in a slump. He bonded with Rald and created a Jewel of Fate with him.

Mako

Voiced by: Satomi Akesaka

Miyuki's granddaughter. She comes to Jewel Land with his Jewel of Fate to find a cure for his sore back and is taken care of by the main cast.

The Saury

Talking fishes who live in their own village in Jewel Land. They have a whole culture of their own based around getting eaten by others. They're so shiny that Ruby sometimes uses them as decoration.

Kijiro

Voiced by: Yasutaka Sonoda

A giant chicken born from one of Sapphie's experiments. He is initially similar to Kiichi in looks, but Kijiro is much faster. He is a great cook.

  • Acrofatic: Like Kiichi, he's quite corpulent. Unlike Kiichi, he is agile.
  • Artistic License – Ornithology: He's a chicken that flies.
  • Big Fun: Is a fat, kind, funny character.
  • But Now I Must Go: He leaves after growing up, saying he needs to go find his place in the world.
  • Eyes Always Shut: His appearance.
  • Feather Fingers: Well, what else would he use for cooking?
  • Giant Flyer: Once he grows up. Though "giant" here is more in the sense of human-sized chicken.
  • Meaningful Name: 'Ki' is for 'Kiichi', and 'ji' is written with the kanji for the number two, making him "Kiichi number two".
  • One-Shot Character: Only appears in episode 9.
  • Plot-Relevant Age-Up: When he collapses seemingly from illness, the main characters are prompted to go look for a cure for him. Most of them go but don't return, and some days later, Kijiro turns into a fully grown rooster, recovering from his disease that wasn't, and uses his newly acquired flying ability to go look for them.
  • Super-Speed: He's extremely fast while cooking.
  • Supreme Chef: Makes amazing food.
  • Uncatty Resemblance: As a chick, he resembles Kiichi greatly. Once he grows up, the similarity is reduced to merely having his eyes always closed.

Yamirin

A character from the online multi-player game "Yami Quest". She's a kind girl who gives a pep talk to Coal (as Kurotenshi) when he's in a depression.

  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: The second episode we see her, she's seen attacking two players because they remind her too much of real life. That said, she's genuinely nice to Kurotenshi.
  • G.I.R.L.: She is the Dark General in real life.
  • Red Is Heroic: Has red eyes and is a nice girl. Since she's actually an avatar of the Dark General, it's a subversion.
