YMMV / Jewelpet Happiness

Go To

  • Base-Breaking Character: Marie Hanazono. She's either by far the most complex character in the show and the only one to have any meaningful character development, or she's an egocentric, one-track-minded, whiny little bitch who sticks her nose in other people's business.
  • Cult Classic: It managed to gained a cult following years after the season ended for its sheer ridiculousness and for its character designs.
  • Contested Sequel: It's generally agreed it's far from the franchise's best, though it doesn't seem to be quite as hated as Jewelpet Kira☆Deco!.
  • Germans Love David Hasselhoff: While this season is not very popular in its native Japan, it is popular amongst Western fans due to its unique bizarreness that is usually found in Western comedies and for its character designs.
  • It's the Same, Now It Sucks!: Some fans accuse this season of trying too much to be like a Lighter and Softer Jewelpet Sunshine and not its own thing.
  • Just Here for Godzilla: For those of you who are only watching the show for the pets, this is the season for you, as it has the most focus on the pets. Others believed thay they watched the show just for the designs.
  • Rooting for the Empire: Who doesn't want Marie to form at least one magic gem with a Jewelpet?
  • So Okay, It's Average: The general fan opinion of it compared to other seasons.
  • Strangled by the Red String: Ruruka/Takumi. She doesn't interact with him a lot, and certainly not in a significant way. Yet she decides to give him Valentine's chocolate for some reason. It's a very poorly developed relationship compared with Chiari/Kousuke and Nene/Mouri.
  • Values Resonance: Episode 14 has Taira (a male character who has been hiding his love of Jewelpets to appear more "manly") not only admitting that he loves the Jewelpets, but he is liked and celebrated for it. Very touching, especially with boys/men who have a hard time accepting that they like things that are considered "girly".
  • Win Back the Crowd: Attempts this by going back to the popular-with-older-audiences style of Jewelpet Sunshine after Jewelpet Kira☆Deco!'s failure.
  • Woolseyism: The group name that the male quartet takes on after getting Red Mooned is EK Mens, a play on 'ikemen' which means 'hunk' (basically). This wordplay wouldn't work in most other languages. The Portuguese dub translates the group name as 'Extra Kool' instead, which works well for the aesthetic they're trying to get across.
