** Garnet, of Love, appears to Minami because of her difficulty in declaring her feelings to Hisashi.
** Sapphie, of Friendship, appears to the lonely Aoi and helps her realize where her true friends are.
** King, of Health, appears to Genshiro, who suffers extremely from old injuries but tries to hide it.
** Kaiya, of Independence, helps Mint realize that she does not have to take crap from Diana and that she can forge her own path.

The first anime series of the ''Franchise/{{Jewelpet}}'' franchise, which started airing in April 2009.

Set in the fictional city of Takaragaseki, the main heroine, Rinko Kougyoku, meets Ruby when the latter is tasked by the Gods to find the Jewelpets who fell in the human world. Rinko and her friends decide to help her, while stopping the evil Jewelpet Diana from doing the same. This season spends more time on the human world than other seasons.

!!Tropes:
* AllJustADream: The New Year's episode is mostly set in various characters' dreams. This is due to the Japanese belief that whatever you dream on that day affects your luck for the rest of the year.
* AlternativeForeignThemeSong: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_LpogTmb2Q The Italian opening]]. Every other dub just dubbed the Japanese songs.
* ArtificialRiverbank: The most famous scene of the first series is probably the first time Ruby causes an explosion and sends everyone flying down a riverbank. A variation of the scene featuring only her also appears in the OP.
* BattleOfTheBands: In the first series, the Jewel Game where Kris is betted is a music contest between Dian and Kris (who dance to a rap tune) vs. the Mascot Trio and the staff of the Strawberry Cafe (who sing "Strawberry Time").
* BeachEpisode: Episode 20 from the first series.
* BettyAndVeronica: Rinko has Akira as the Betty and Andy as the Veronica.
* ChristmasEpisode: Episode 38.
* ColonyDrop: Episode 44 is about Dian's plan to use Alex's powers to summon an asteroid and destroy the world.
* ConspicuousCGI: The Jewel Stick is fairly well done CGI, but all the more obvious among the low budget 2D animation.
* ConvenientlySeated: All the major characters sit at the back of the class presumably so the rest of their classmates don't have to be drawn.
* CreditsRunningSequence: Half of the ED is Rinko walking through a DerangedAnimation background and being joined by Minami, Aoi and their Jewelpets.
* CubCuesProtectiveParent: In episode 10, the Phantom Herb Thieves try to steal a tiger cub to sell it. The parent appears [[MamaBear and it doesn't seem to support their idea.]]
* DawnOfAnEra: The end. [[spoiler:After thousands of years of not knowing of each other's existence, the human world and Jewel Land become fully connected and look forward to a future where they work together.]] Quite possibly the most positive ending of any ''Jewelpet'' season.
* DescendingCeiling: Episode 25, the gang walks into a room in Diana's lair and the ceiling starts lowering. Ruby's explosions save the day by opening a hole on a wall.
* DreamWithinADream: A variation of this by having Rinko wake up from her dream while being in King's dream.
* EarnYourHappyEnding: First series. [[spoiler:After a long battle with Dian where humanity was at stake, he and Diana reform and humans and Jewelpets are allowed to live together in harmony and mutual support.]]

** Rinko, Minami and Aoi also ride brooms when they go to Jewel Land in episode 14.
* GladiatorGames: The Jewel Games apparently used to be this before they were forbidden. When Dian revives them, they take on various, non-violent forms.
* GottaCatchEmAll: The focus is in collecting all the Jewelpets. The Jewel Game where Amelie is bet also features this on a smaller scale, as the task is to collect more runaway babies than the opponent.
* GoKartingWithBowser: Episode 46 has Rinko and Diana, who're stuck in Dian's prison, making sweets for Valentine's Day.
* GratuitousEnglish: The Jewel Pocketbook has written on its cover, "Eyes of jewels that shine, glittering with luck and good fortune."
* HowWeGotHere: Episode 10 starts with all the characters apparently lost in a jungle, with Ruby enjoying herself in a field of flowers. Ruby notices it and remarks to the audience that they need to step back a little in the story.
* IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight: [[spoiler:Ultimately, the fight against Dark Dian boils down to ridding Dian of the influence of Dark Magic.]]
* IntergenerationalFriendship: Keigo Tatewaki (early 20's) with Rinko and friends (14).
* {{Kimodameshi}}: Episode 18.
* LoveTriangle: Akira-Rinko-Andy[[spoiler:/Dian]].
* MadeOfExplodium: Ruby's magic causes explosions when cast. She does get it right sometimes.
* MagicalIncantation: ''Puri Puri Pururin Prism! Open! Jewel Heart!'', ''Puri Puri Prism Jewelrhythm! (Jewel name) Jewel Flash!'', ''Puripuru Puropuru Puriphony! -Jewelpet Name- Jewel Return!'' and ''Dark Dark! (Jewel name) Eyes Power!''
* {{Meido}}: The main cast, sans Aoi, wear this in episode 7.
* MonsterOfTheWeek / VictimOfTheWeek: The first half of the series has a formula where Rinko and co. find someone with a quirk or a problem (victim), and that someone awakens a Jewelpet (monster). Later we have the Jewel Eight arc which drops the victim aspect. [[BreatherEpisode Do note that not]] [[FinalBattle all episodes used this]].
* MoodWhiplash: [[spoiler:Episode 47 had this. Thought it begins as a riot on protecting Rinko from Dian/Andy at first became a serious kick in the balls moment. After the dating scene, Rinko fell in a trance due to Dian's magic and her friends finally knew Andy is Dian. Worse of all, she got taken away from her friends, crushing both Nanase and Ruby's spirits.]]
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: In episode 3, Sapphie casts her friendship spell on [[Creator/EwanMcGregor Ewan Backgregor]], prompting him to loudly declare Aoi as his best friend.
* NoRomanticResolution: [[spoiler:Minami / Hisashi (Hisashi never learns of Minami's feelings), Aoi / Naoto (love each other but suffer from TwiceShy), Ruby / Tour (Tour's feelings for Ruby are never made clear).]]
* PottyFailure: In episode 23, Ruby wets Rinko's bed. Rinko gets mad at her, and Ruby retaliates with telling everybody that she also wets the bed regularly. They stay mad for the rest of the episode.
* RunningGag: Ruby's exploding magic and Tatewaki's name getting constantly mispronounced.
* SavingChristmas: Episode 38. Dian brainwashes Io and decides to ruin Christmas by stealing the presents from Santa. You know what the heroes have to do.

* ShipperOnDeck: Ruby and Nephrite are rightfully convinced that Rinko and Akira are meant for each other, despite their protests.
* ShipTease: Tatewaki and Flora. Mostly it's the scene where Flora pleads with him to not confront Dian.
** Tatewaki and Rinko also had their moments. Akira even briefly looks at him as a rival in love.
** Sage's blushing when Mint abuses him.
* {{Snowlems}}: Type III. Dian's EliteMooks that guard his ice fortress consist of these.
* TheSongRemainsTheSame: The French dub didn't dub "Strawberry Time". Instead it used subtitles.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Jewelrhythm or Jewellism?
* StormingTheCastle: Episodes 25-26, wherein the gang invades Diana's bigger-inside lair.
* TeenageMutantSamuraiWombats: The first series starts out with the Jewelpets arriving in the human world and the government doing everything it can to conceal them from the public. But as it quickly turns out, neither humans or Jewelpets see what the big deal is, so this gets quickly dropped through a press conference in episode 11.
* TotalEclipseOfThePlot: Episode 43 is about a lunar eclipse.
* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Seems to be played straight at first, but episode 11 explains that Raku Majo cast a spell on Takaragaseki which causes the population to accept Jewelpets without question. However, the spell is only active in Takaragaseki, so there's trouble when a cursed Takki leaks the secret to the press. He implausibly solves the problem by appealing to the good will of the mass media not to reveal the existence of Jewelpets to the world.
* ValentinesDayEpisodes: Episode 46 pulls this off despite the busy plot by having Rinko and Diana bond in prison by making chocolate for their love interests.
* WackyRacing: Episode 34 (one of the Jewel Games).
* WhamEpisode: Episode 51. [[spoiler:Dian turning into a hideous monster not even the legendary Jewelpet Opal could defeat.]]
