I’m getting impatient and decided to check the twatter for a possible release date. That was obviously a dead end. I decided to look for posts from random people talking about the show, only found ‘people complaining about the show’ and ‘people complaining about other people complaining about the show’. Found the “official” Twitter account for the show, its been abandoned since August 2018:

So then I decided to check on the people who have the show on their bios:

Creator/Executive Producer of the show:

She seems to be pretty cow worthy herself from just a very brief browsing of her twitter:

The other staffer for HGS is a Background Artist, her Twitter/Tumblr have been abandoned since August 2018.

Only reason I know she's still alive, this post from her Instagram from 2 days ago, other than that it was also abandoned since December 2018:

Everything is abandoned whenever I look up info on the show.

Wouldn't be surprised if Crunchyroll dropped this like a hot potato after the reactions to the trailer came out. Not even the target demographic wanted this show. It was blatantly just a mashup of Steven Universe and popular anime without anything to make it stand out.

So it's just another GenZed, a pathetic troon cash grab that failed.
 
So High Guardian Spice has pretty much been dumped like a Japanese relationship in that it's being ignored and everyone's trying to pretend it never happened. Still feel bad for Raye in being cucked out of their own creation, but should've done more research, kid. Think even when it comes to lost/cancelled media, no one's going to be willing to talk about this in passing for quite some time.

Was it ever revealed what the Korean studio was that was supposed to animate this, by any chance?
 
People working on stuff like this almost always have to sign non-disclosure agreements, so the crew not bringing up new info on the show isn't really a sign of cancellation.
I don't think its cancelled, but rather it will just be silently released by CR without fanfare.
 
Honestly I feel like this is more of a scam than Zoe Quinn's "game".
Isn't that the whole point of WomenInAnimation (I think that's what their lobby is called), to take the money while making a promise that they might do something?

It looks like they're wrapping up some aspects of production. Link related is a CR writer/storyboard artist, so I guess those parts have been finished.

They're also already firing people from the studio which just.... :story:

Also they've only just seen the end of storyboarding and character design revisions. Hooooooo Boooooooyyyyyy.

It might make it out for March 2020 at this rate. Are they all just being this fucking lazy or what? They chose to release that fucking trailer to really wank themselves off with fuck all to show for it?

That's really not how things work for this shit.
 
High Guardian Spice is going to be on Toonami to the utter confusion of people who watch anime there:
