''Jewelpet Twinkle'' is the second entry of the ''Franchise/{{Jewelpet}}'' anime.
Akari Sakura is on her way to start her sixth grade at the Winston Academy, when she meets the magical talking rabbit Ruby. Ruby wants Akari to come with her to Jewel Land and study together with her at the Magic Academy. Akari at first refuses, but after they come to undertand each other, she decides to accept. And so begins the tale of this shy girl's self improvement, as she struggles through her magical studies in order to gather 12 Jewel Stones, which will allow her to compete in the Jewel Star Grand Prix, the winner of which is granted three wishes.
At the Magic Academy, Akari makes many friends, such as boisterous idol singer-wannabe Miria and distant academical genius Sara. Back in the human world, her heart is set on the mysterious Yuuma Jinnai. She also confronts Jewel Land's dark history through an elusive student who for some reason greatly resembles Yuuma.
It's the only ''Jewelpet'' season so far to get a sequel, which comes in the form of an OVA, released in the Summer of 2013.

* DarkerAndEdgier: ''Twinkle'' is way, ''way'' darker than the anime's first season, and most of the seasons that came after it as well. It has issues of parental abandonment and neglect as one of its most recurring themes. Just about everyone in the main cast has problems with their families. The villain is someone who's fated to die an early death due to her powers, and who's been forcefully seperated from her family.

* StatusQuoIsGod: Akari and Yuuma eventually become aware of their feelings for each other, but are seemingly forever incapable of ever becoming a couple. The most obvious example of this is when Yuuma confesses to Akari and she just plain ''didn't hear it because she was so entranced by him''.
* ThereCanOnlyBeOne: Only one person may win the Jewel Star Grand Prix and have 3 wishes come true.
* ThreePlusTwo: The main human cast, composed of three girls and two boys which can form a FiveManBand. The plot spends a lot more time on the girls than the boys (which is justified since it's a shoujo anime).

* TournamentArc: The Jewel Star Grand Prix, of course, from episode 42 to the end.

* ConvenientlySeated: Yuuma, the mysterious boy Akari likes, gets the ever-popular back-row seat by the window, with Akari next to him.
* CreditsRunningSequence: The ED has Akari, Miria and Sara walking and running with their Jewelpets at their side.
* DarkerAndEdgier: ''Twinkle'' is way, ''way'' darker than the anime's first season, and most of the seasons that came after it as well. It has issues of parental abandonment and neglect as one of its most recurring themes. Just about everyone in the main cast has problems with their families. The villain is someone who's fated to die an early death due to her powers, and who's been forcefully seperated from her family. And characters actually ''die'' [[spoiler:(at least, for a significant period of time, whereas in other seasons they come back to life the very next episode)]].
* DysfunctionJunction: Most of the cast has a lot of personal issues, mostly having to do with their family life.
* EvilIsNotAToy: [[spoiler:Alma thought the Battest was controlable because of her phenomenal powers. Too bad for her that the Battest is a book encasing all the Dark Magic in the world. It ends up possessing her and almost causing the end of the world, twice (she learned her lesson the first time, but the Battest didn't leave her body).]]
* ExtranormalInstitute: All the magic schools in Jewel Land.
* EyelidPullTaunt: Ruby and Diana do this to each other in an episode.
* FestivalEpisode: Episode 20.
* FeudEpisode: Nicola and Titana because Nicola says Titana can't do anything without him in episode 19.
* FightingSpirit: Akari and Miria have these materialize in their fight in episode 48. They are implied to be embodiments of their dreams.
* FiveManBand
** TheHero: Akari
** TheLancer: Sara
** TheBigGuy: Leon
** TheSmartGuy: Nicola
** TheChick: Miria
* FlightOfRomance: Akari takes Yuuma flying through Jewel Land in the Christmas episode.
* ForgottenBirthday: Happens in episode 17, when Akari sees that her family went off to work without saying anything to her and decides to celebrate it with Ruby, Labra and Peridot. Then she comes home and turns out her family threw a SurpriseParty.
* FreakyFridayFlip: Miria and Sara in episode 21.
* GottaCatchEmAll: Everyone needs to get 12 Jewel Stones to advance through the grades and go to the Jewel Star Grand Prix.
* GraduateFromTheStory: The final episode features the graduation of the students of the Magic Academy, putting a lot of emphasis in Akari having to seperate from all the friends she made there.
* HufflepuffHouse: The nameless schools that Hilde and Sagan hail from.
* HumanFocusedAdaptation: This season is one of those which pays more attention to the humans' character development than the Jewelpets.
* InterdimensionalTravelDevice: The Jewel Pods are devices with the power to transport their wielders between Jewel Land and Earth.
* InterspeciesRomance: Labra has a slight crush on Yuuma.
* InvoluntaryDance: A spell called "Twinkle Twinkle Samba". It's used in episode 41 to appease two warring factions of mushrooms.
* {{Kimodameshi}}: Episode 10.
* LovePotion: In episode 45, Ruby and Labra try to slip one into the sweets Akari made for Yuuma, only for them to land in the hands of five boys who proceed to chase Akari around school.
* MagicAIsMagicA: ''Twinkle'' has strict rules concerning how magic works. It actually has words and phrases that are necessary to conjure any spell. This contrasts with the other seasons, where they simply chant their very generic MagicalIncantation to do anything, hoping it will do what they want (most of the time, it didn't).
* MagicalIncantation: [[ByThePowerOfGrayskull ''Twinkle Twinkle Magical Charm! Winkle Winkle Jewel Flash!'']]. Substitute ''Twinkle Twinkle'' with ''Guria Guria'' for the boys.
* MindOverMatter: The Rangula (or Langura) spell is for moving objects around.
* MineralMacGuffin: The Jewel Stones.
* MultinationalTeam: The Magic Academy students - Akari (Japanese), Miria (American), Sara (Indian), Nicola (Russian) and Leon (Austrian).
* MushroomMan: A whole population of them, much to Sara's horror.
* NoodleIncident: The end of episode 5, where Sara experiments on Miria. We never know ''what'' exactly happens, but it does sour the relationship between them until they resolve their differences in episode 21.
* NoRomanticResolution: [[spoiler:Akari / Yuuma (while they do love each other, they're too shy to do anything about it, despite the fact that they've actually confessed to each other; not even the OVA solves it).]]
* RunningGag: Ryl throwing Ruby into the air and Akari having to catch her; Moldavite demanding for someone to sing karaoke with him and his other antics which get him severely punished by Halite.
* SceneryPorn: Jewel Land uses very bright and strong colors, and looks absolutely stunning at night.
* TheSevenMysteries: Used in episode 10 of ''Twinkle''. Most turn out to be some antic of Moldavite's, although the last one is for real.
* ShipperOnDeck: Ruby ships Yuuma and Akari; later Miria and Sara as well; [[spoiler:and Alma in the OVA]].
** Akari ships Albiana with her pet chimera because she mistakenly believes the chimera is her lover under a curse.
* ShipTease: The scene where Leon compliments Sara (ignore for a moment that it was Miria in Sara's body; Leon didn't know that) for cleaning up nicely reeks of this.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: You can easily find ''Twinkle'' under the name "Tinkle" on the web. This is a pain in the butt when you're looking for fan works, because if you use one spelling, you're never going to get the whole amount of it.
* StatusQuoIsGod: Akari and Yuuma eventually become aware of their feelings for each other, but are seemingly forever incapable of ever becoming a couple. The most obvious example of this is when Yuuma confesses to Akari and she just plain ''didn't hear it because she was so entranced by him''.
* ThereCanOnlyBeOne: Only one person may win the Jewel Star Grand Prix and have 3 wishes come true.
* ThreePlusTwo: The main human cast, composed of three girls and two boys which can form a FiveManBand. The plot spends a lot more time on the girls than the boys (which is justified since it's a shoujo anime).
* TomeOfEldritchLore: The Battest.
* TournamentArc: The Jewel Star Grand Prix, of course, from episode 42 to the end.
* TransformationSequence: As usual for MagicalGirl anime.
* TransformationTrinket: The Jewel Charms.
