Jewlie (Spoiler Alert)

Voiced by: Reina Ueda

The older sister of Janis and the current Idol Goddess in PriPara. She is very calming and kind with a slightly naive nature. She is mature when the time calls for it and handles overseeing the Grand Prix, deciding which Idols stand a chance at obtaining the Kami Idol title. She lived in the Rosette Tact found by Laala and was raised by her, causing her to become very clingy and childish in Laala's presence. She passes her title onto Janis at the end of the season, now working as the one to give girls their PriTickets when she believes they are ready. She uses the brand Rosette Jewel.

• Anime Hair: Same as her sister. It is composed of wavy hair worn in one thick ponytail that splits into pigtails near the bottom, held by braided hair. Sticking out of this is a thick loop of hair on each side of the head, and a bun on top. The bangs are combined into the forelocks, which reach the chest.
• Character Catchphrase: "Aiai" (as Jewlulu).
• Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling: The foolish to Janis's responsible. While Jewlie isn't as bad as most cases, she does share things in common with other known older siblings in the series, mainly Laala, most-likely due to being raised by her.
• Meaningful Name: Jewlie is another spelling of Julie, which is derived from the Latin name Julia, and it means "youthful" or "beautiful", which refers to Jewlie's appearance. Her name also has the word "jewel" in it, which may refer to her brand Rosette Jewel and its coords.
• Pimped-Out Dress: A common trope for Rosette Jewel, featuring extremely elaborate costumes covered in gems, and accents of rainbow or gold.
• Platonic Co-Parenting: Mostly Laala (which she calls "Mama"), but the other main characters also took care of her, she even called Sion "Papa" in one episode.
• Plot-Relevant Age-Up: In episode 94, Jewlie reveals that she is Jewlulu in her true form.
• Secret Identity: Only for Valentines day, when she changes her appearance to that of a young Idol in PriPara to give SoLaMi Smile candy she made. While she keeps her forehead marking, her eye color changed to match her temporary hair color and style.
• Strong Family Resemblance: She and Janis look like twins because they share the exact same appearance. The only things different being their hair color, eye shape and color, and their outfit colors.

Janis

Voiced by: Aki Toyosaki

The younger sister and past unit mate of the current Idol Goddess, Jewlie. While she is elegant and regal in her appearance like her sister, she lacks her kindness, showing a much more stoic and professional personality. She was the cause for Chili's change in idol form, having been living in the Rosette Tact until Chili refused to help her commit theft of the Cyalume Tact. She uses the brand Rosette Jewel.

• Anime Hair: Same as her sister. It is composed of wavy hair worn in one thick ponytail that splits into pigtails near the bottom, held by braided hair. Sticking out of this is a thick loop of hair on each side of the head, and a bun on top. The bangs are combined into the forelocks, which reach the chest.
• Big Little Sister: This allows her to bond with Non, who both share a lot in common, as do their older sisters.
• Defrosting Ice Queen: Her resentment of Jewlie and stoic nature melted over the season.
• Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling: While Jewlie isn't that bad, Janis was always the serious and focused one.
• Heel–Face Turn: This allows her to reconnect with Jewlie, befriend NonSugar, and obtain the current title of the official Goddess of PriPara when Jewlie passes it down to her.
• Meaningful Name: Janis means "God is gracious", which refers to her being a goddess.
• Secret Identity: Only for Valentine's Day, when she changes her appearance to that of a young Idol in PriPara to give NonSugar candy she made. While her eyes and forehead marking remain the same, she wears an outfit that appears to be a combination of Chiri's and her normal attire. Her hair is also vastly different, but before the group could connect who she is, she runs away.
• Strong Family Resemblance: She and Jewlie look like twins because they share the exact same appearance, the only things different being their hair color, eye shape and color, and their outfit colors. They are not confirmed to be twins, however, with Jewlie being older than her.
  • This also connects her to the role of an Evil Twin, due to her darker color scheme, initial evil plans, and cold demeanor.
• Pimped-Out Dress: A common trope for Rosette Jewel, featuring extremely elaborate costumes covered in gems, and accents of rainbow or gold.
