High Guardian Spice
High Guardian Spice[1] is an upcoming American animated web television series. The program is produced by Ellation Studios, and was originally slated to be online streaming site Crunchyroll's first original content.[2] The show was originally set for release in early 2019, but got delayed to 2020.[1][2][3] The show's announcement—and the implication that Crunchyroll was beginning to produce rather than solely license content and the property's pro-diversity message—sparked controversy amongst some of the site's users.[4]
