Jewelpet Attack Chance Short Anime's 1st Episode Streamed
posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
Sega Toys began streaming the first episode of the Jewelpet Attack Chance!? short web anime on February 18.
In the video, Labra comments that she's very sad that the previous anime has ended. While she's crying, Ruby appears, but has become and fat due to having too much time on her hands after the anime ended. Lovera states that they're going to have an "Anime Revival Meeting," and a new character named Ruri, a girl who loves Jewelpet. It turns out that Ruri is a high-class lady, and she uses her finances to get Ruby a diet kit so she can get in shape.
Ayaka Saitō is reprising her role as Ruby in the show.
Sanrio and Sega Toys launched their Jewelpet character and toy line in 2008, and the first Jewelpet anime followed a year later. Each Jewelpet toy is a stuffed animal; in the storyline, these pets belonged to magicians in "Jewelland" and can use magic themselves, thanks to their round jewel eyes. They study every day to learn how to use magic.
The first Jewelpet anime was followed by Jewelpet Twinkle, Jewelpet Sunshine, Jewelpet Kira☆Deco—!, Jewelpet Happiness, Lady Jewelpet, and most recently, last year's Jewelpet: Magical Change.
