Originally JCB USA started issuing cards only in state where there were a lot of tourists from Japan, Japanese nationals, and Japanese Americans. JCB-USA is a small bank and still focused on servicing such consumers.

When I got my first JCB card it was only available in 5 states but now I believe there are 9 states. The Marukai card is still limited to 5 states.
