On September 9th, 2019, a Twitter user posted a thread about watching the High Guardian Spice pilot on the website Pilotly, a website where users view pilots and send feedback. The user also provided a basic sypnosis of the events of the first episode. The user tagged the YouTube channel Clownfish TV, who made a video about the plot. However, according to CFTV Crunchyroll's legal team sent a DMCA to the channel to take down the video. Clownfish TV would later address this takedown in a follow up video.
This transcript could only be found on shadier websites, but it is now posted here for all to see.
Here we go, the transcript of the first High Guardian Spice episode.
Not dead to me, I just saw the 1st scene and so far, it looks pretty good.
Imagine Little Witch Academia if it had like a Steven Universe art style.
I'll start by saying that before I started the survey, the starting page had an image like this except i saw a castle wall background with "High Guardian Spice" in red bold text over the shield.
Also, when I accepted the terms, I saw both Crunchyroll X VRV.
Anywho, the show begins with Rosemary (pink haired girl) and Sage (blue haired girl) stepping on a hill, about to take a wagon ride to High Guardian Academy.
After a joke where Rosemary tumbles down a hill, the 2 see their parents, and RM's dad mentions how...
her mother would be proud of her as he he shows Rosemary a charm pendant she's wearing.
We then learn that Sage wants to be a healer and her mother tells the 2 to "Don't forget Chompy" as they head off.
Chompy, a gray toad with tiny horns hops in and bites Sage's bag
Intro starts
The Opening to "High Guardian Spice" is actually pretty nice as it definitely feels like an anime OP.
The song's an English song and the scenes they show gives me some vibes.
New She-Ra: Girls BF group
Little Witch Academia: School and the students
Oh yeah!
And apparently, Rosemary's dad is gay as you see him and Rosemary living together with him pink haired man.
After the intro.
The 2 girls are still off and they noticed their hometown called, "Pebble" is smaller than they thought.
Then, after they scaled a mountain or canyon, I think it was Rosemary who decides who decides to cut the line to board a train...
With the help of a living chest that carries their items, they take out a broomstick and fly on board the train.
They then take a rest until they arrive to a city called "Linguard" where they are greeted by "Sages?" cousin and niece; who I think they're LGBTQs.
The girls go to the LGBTQ's house and with some magic, the 2 women hold hands and create a bedroom for their guests to sleep in.
It then cuts to a dream scene or a flashback of young RM seeing her mother who was a strong guardian fight darkness, but disappears.
Rose wakes up with tears in her eyes and when Sage wakes up and sees Rose, she offers to sleep with her and tells her that her mother's still out there alive.
Morning comes and upon Sage's niece trying to give the girls tea, I saw a wedding photo of the 2 women in the background.
The girl's then go to the Kitchen where they see that the white haired LGBTQ woman in charge of the Kitchen.
The girls eat breakfast and decide tto check out Linguard. So, they go to the marketplace and Rose almost hits a black brunette with her sword upon being excited.
BTW, Rosemary's sword is really her mom's and the black brunette eventually joins Rose and Sage's BF group. The opening spoils that.
Anyways, Rosemary then notices her locket's missing; which contains a picture of a cheese cake and they go after a tiny rodent creature called a Trixie who has it. They chase it to a tree where Rose want to kill it, but Sage tells her to wait and see what it does first.
They watch the Trixie do a little dance on a tree stump and Sage tells Rose that it's doing a ritual with the locket. It calls out its mates and evolves into a griffin looking creature. It then flies around the tree until 1 of its mates hears it.
They dive down from the tree and it causes the causes the younger mate to turn into a pink version of its lover. They then grab Rose's locket and break it in half in front of her. She gets the 2 halves back and it's revealed that the cheese cake picture is just a family photo.
Sage then takes Rosemary to a blacksmith to try and repair the locket. The blacksmith they see is a short blonde girl named Parsely who's also going to the academy to be a better blacksmith.
She also has 12 brothers and is in charge of all of them.
So, after the girls talk a bit and we get a joke of Parsley slamming her hammer to silence her brothers and sending 4 of them to do a chore, she offers to fix Rose's locket and give it back to her when school starts.
Then, it cuts to Rose and Sage back in Sages' cousins' house.
They tell Sages' cousins how their day went and the 2 girls go to bed together.
And the final scene of the ep. is Rose and Sage heading to the school and Sage replies to something Rose says with, "When I can use spells with 1 hand, I'll make you whole again."
Ep. Ends
There's also an anime like opening that shows the "Best friends squad" and gave me some new She-Ra vibes with the ending song and scenes, but it also felt more like Little Witch Academia.
However, I don't think it'll be as bad or cheesy as new She-Ra.
Correction to my 1st tweet on this, @RealClownfishTV:
Apparently, there's another ep. of High Guardian Spice the survey showed me. So, 2 episodes.
It's a Halloween ep; which has an antagonist who I like to call "Not Catra" and a big, muscular, talking cat.
