Part 3/9:
Despite the silence, some evidence suggests the pilot for “High Guardian Spice” exists. A screening was reportedly held, and a leaked clip surfaced online, prompting lawyers to issue takedown notices—an indication that the project is still technically active, or at least had been at some point. Still, no official release date has been announced, and the series is conspicuously absent from Crunchyroll’s current catalog of announced titles.
The hosts highlight that “High Guardian Spice” remains on the Crunchyroll Originals website, but clicking through yields no pertinent information or release window. It is notably missing from the recent updates alongside other upcoming titles, raising questions about whether the project has been quietly canceled or simply delayed indefinitely.
