@@dlowolb3391 Same, I'm actually quite curious about her relationship with her parents. Clearly she doesn't respect them much considering how quick she was to detail their unfaithfulness to Thyme, someone who she isn't even close with and based on what she says about them they don't exactly sound like they were the best parents/role models either. It really makes me wonder if Amaryllis antagonistic behavior was partially the result of poor/non-existent parenting. I'm also quite curious about how she and Snapdragon initially became friends, especially since Snapdragon is pretty much an ideal target for bullying. I wonder if they bonded over a shared loneliness when they were younger since despite her having a lot of "mean girl" traits Amaryllis doesn't actually appear to be very popular and Snapdragon seems to be her only close friend. I didn't hate High Guardian Spice, but I also can't deny that Axe Gremlin Amaryllis was the main reason why I wanted to keep watching it. Hell, she's the main reason why I'd actually like for their to be a second season.
@@kaedesghost3123 Honestly she's so blatantly mean and reckless that doesn't even portray her in a bad light anymore, I just saw her as being over the top extra and a little bit spoilt. She's probably one of the best things in the show besides Neppy Cat, Snapdragon, and Slime Boy.
In retrospect, Amaryllis spilling tea on Sage is suddenly more justifiable considering how bitchy the latter gets in later episodes. My girl Ama could smell the evil on her.
Amaryllis noticed Sage was inexperience in magic so instead of drinking what obviously poison she willingly spilled it on her so that she HAD to learn under pressure.
Most optimistic guess: she was bluffing about the poison being lethal, though they'd look ridiculous for the remainder of the day. If that's the case, I WOULD have liked some hint to that at some point...
@@inky5574 hell, at least the Hogwarts staff *tries* to prevent certain death; High Guardian's teachers actively put them in danger and laugh about it!
I love how Amaryllis is tough and still feminine. She uses a battle axe while painting her nails pink. I feel like she and Snapdragon (and possibly Slime Boy) would be way better protagonists than the main four.
Parsley and Thyme have some potential. Unfortunately the show wants to focus on the one-dimensional Rosemary and her hypocritical bff Sage instead of characters with actual, fleshed-out motivations and character development.
Amaryllis, Snapdragon and slimeboy (if the actor was given a ebtter mic and was given the chance to read over his lines before shooting) should've had a show for themself only
Amaryllis may have some flaws like her hot-headed attitude and such, but it makes her more likable and more realistic. She still loves and cares for her friends, unlike the main group, i think the 'Antagonists' are much better characters!
They should've been the main characters, Rosemary and Sage are USELESS. We have 0 clue on who they are, we only know things that go on back at home when it's "talk about your feelings" time. And they are flawless assholes who add nothing interesting to the god awful written story
I haven't watched the show but I think it's just the fact that from what I've seen the protagonists are so like, "perfect" and their 'flaws' are so artificial it makes them unlikeable and not really relatable. Amaryllis is more like a gremlin in a human body, even if you don't relate to her and how she acts, it's the fact that she just does not give a fuck is what makers her funny.
Additionally she has a more interesting redemption arc for a bully character. Like a lot of billy characters arc as of recent sorta boil down to having neglectful parents, but amaryllis has stated she could care less about them. But while she is a bully she has been shown to care about her friends, with her slowly becoming friendly with the main cast, and during the finale she showed great leadership with the rest of the class. It honestly would have been an interesting redemption arc because it would have been just through her given opportunities to shine and help
Storyline based off of these clips: The story is about two friends Amaryllis and Snapdragon who go through crazy hijinks at their new school. Meanwhile, Thyme and Parsley have a subplot in which they killed Parsley's little brother and are trying to resolve their wrongdoings. Sage and Rosemary are now just part of the side character cast that gets made fun of.
Like a story about amaryllis learning old magic could be usefool , becoming more patient ,and some backstory stuff . Snapdragon trying to figure out things about themslef and be morenin dept why the two bullies like I really wanna see bully mc to be honest cuz it's super irratation at the first few episodes but it's so satisfacying to see their developtment and I really wanna see what the "guardian" means in this world
Amaryllis and Snapdragons friendship is way better than Sage and Rosemary’s. Amaryllis shows lots of care for him and consoles him when he feels down and they’re able to have fun together without any complaints, but on the other hand during that costume party episode sage got all butthurt with rosemary all cause rosemary didn’t want to do what sage wanted and sage basically threw a tantrum over it The writers honestly tried so hard to make sage and rosemary look like the better friends but instead they just made their friendship so damn toxic And they tried too hard to paint Amaryllis as the bad person but shes better than the protagonists
(Preface: I do not have Crunchy Roll and have not otherwise found the show online, so my knowledge comes from reviews) The problem is that this is way too much of a character-driven show, so there really isn't much inherent conflict in the show beyond basic magic school tropes. The creators must have realized this, and, instead of trying to actual incorporate a greater plot earlier, they made the main characters act abnormally unpleasant at certain points to cause conflict. The main characters are often annoying, but they can become incredibly nasty just to cause some drama.
Honestly both Sage and Rosemary sucked to each other. Sage getting mad at Rosemary is somewhat justified given that Rosemary was being an asshole and pretending she didn't see Sage signing them up for Pumpkin craving. They both suck since her and Sage should have talked over the options and then come to a decision so it is on Sage for not trying to initiate conversation. Still they both did this to each other.
Also, Amarillys reads the environment when Snapdragon wants to stay with his crush, but Rosemary don't And, meanwhile Rose and Sage's reconciliation takes a lot of words and time. Snap and Ama, just like: - "Are we okay?" - "Yes, we are" :)
@@TheFi3nd I'm flaming the writers. The main characters are garbage, and if the writers were the ones who self inserted, that means they're garbage too. Which they are
Amaryllis is like the only person who can see how crappy this worldbuilding, character dynamics, and the main characters are and as a result is both pessimistic and sociopathic and the only person carrying this awful show.
that just reminds me of raquelle in barbie’s life in the dreamhouse. except everyone else in that world are likeable, while the people in this one aren’t really.
pretty sure that amaryllis was co-written by her voice actor so that's probably why she's one of the best ones of the show snap and amaryllis legit carried the show
@@wizardkumaanimations9984 Sorry but no. Despite their valiant efforts, they sure as hell did not carry the show, that's an impossible feat. But they broke their backs trying, gotta give them credit for that.
5:24 THIS. This is actually amazing! This is what HGS SHOULD have been the entire time! A jokey but ultimately well meaning and sweet response to something that people have self doubt in. These two are genuinely amazing, but we're stuck with the others who are either boring (Thyme), Trash (Rose and Sage), or Kinda alright (Parsley).
I prefer Snapdragon and Amaryllis together so much- just imagine the possibilities! Amaryillis can influence Snapdragon to be more confident with himself and he'll probably learn to stand up for himself in a much more stable way. And I'll bet that she'll accept him for who he is regardless of gender with open arms And Snapdragon can help Amaryllis learn to be more comfortable with showing her nicer side. I'm gonna make the assumption that Amaryllis is quite the loner one- despite being so prideful and never had any other friends other than Snap, thus her protectiveness of their friendship. Just imagine how utterly wholesome it could be- them conversing at ease in comfort just by each other's natural presence shhshs
I love that you included every time Amaryllis was “mean” to the main characters like she wasn’t just saying what we were all thinking. Amaryllis is best axe girl and her and Snapdragon’s friendship was way better than the actual main characters. Snap and Ryll are the greatest duo of the show and I actually loved their characters.
5:03 It's actually a pretty cute scene. It show's how despite Amaryllis is a tough and aggressive girl, she deeply cares for snap and wants to help them feel comfortable in their own skin. It was cute...until the sobbing came up. I kinda wish they redid that line because it feels very off and kills the mood.
Amarillis and Snapdragon would be much better protagonists than the original 4 girls and I will tell you why: Because they're not perfect. The 4 main girls have no faults, or their faults are so superficial that they could be fixed simply by talking. On the other hand, Amarillis comes from a rich, recognized and respected family, the pressure she must feel to be perfect just by being part of that family must be immense... And Snapdragon is a different boy from an traditional family that not only does not understand him, but sometimes it seems that the father and the brothers despises the poor boy... they are characters with a lot of space to grow mentally and emotionally... can you imagine how satisfying it would be to see them both overcoming their traumas and becoming heroes at the end of a series? just please cast another VA for Snapdragon, that "crying" ( 5:06 ) was f***ing terrible xD
There is a Saying we "Authors" love to live by. "A story is as Interesting as the Characters" You can make a Horrible Story and still make it Good if the Characters are Interesting or lovable enough.
I couldn’t agree with you more, Amaryllis may not be perfect, but she’s far from a bad character. She genuinely cares about Snapdragon and defends Snap when she needs to. Also, the crying scene kinda ruined the whole vibe, yeah/
I remember reading that Snap's VA was an irl trans woman or something along those lines, because you know, rEprESenTatiOn. So yeah Snap and slime boy deserve a better VA.
@@joaquinalonsocordovalinare8159 what?? There’s nothing bad about legitimate representation! If your problem is with bad acting, then say that, but we need some more fucking representation in this bitch of a world, and we don’t need more assholes making it worse on us.
The part where she keeps her spell up just to curse freely and cutting to outside of the spell area after is probably one of the best jokes I've seen from this series (which probably says a lot). This little axe head is wholesome.
Snapdragon and amaryllis aren’t that good either The only characters I’d say are good are slime boy since he’s the only mellow character who has common sense And macho cat
Litteraly, Snapdragon and Amarylis have so much personality to them that the actuall main characters! (It's just my opinion =P ) I just felt like that the main charas has as much personality as a pebble, Ama and SD also have much more story to them! (Just my opinion once more) I feel like HGS just doesn't feel like it has a plot tbh, but when we're with those two I see alot more potential! So yeah they should have been the stars of the show, and it would have been hella fun to watch SD figuring out who he is really supposed to be, with the help of Ama ofc, I'd much rather follow him through the story than the actuall cast, but once again all of this has been my opinion, I feel like the show could make trans audiences less alone, like those w/ homophobic family's, those who are in a dark place and don't feel accepted... That would have made SUCH a good show! But once again that's just my perspective. Thank you for coming to my rant. Have a good day Lovelies! And make sure you're taking care of yourselves!
Amaryllis is in almost every clip shown here and that's more right than anything that's done in the show And Thyme basically sums up everyone's thoughts after watching the show in the last clip
So Snapdragon and Amaryllis have perfect chemistry and instead the writers decide to have Snapdragon become romantically interested in one of the worst and boring characters of the entire show.
Buddy, have you seen what type of person is writing this show? The probability of 2 characters having a hetero relationship is tinnier then the shows quality
I watched a few reviews, and one of them was heavy critical of Amaryllis aside from her parts with Snapdragon. I thought that she was one of the less annoying character from the little that I saw of her, so I was confused. This video made me love her.
Who bursts into tears and sounds like that? That’s the sound you make when you’re like fifteen minutes into a crying session and all of your normal sounds have been expended and ur brain just starts coming up with stuff
I feel like amaryllis is a friend we've all had who's rude and bitchy to people they dislike around them but you look past that cause they're your bestie
Amaryllis is easily one of the most likable characters on the show. She’s a really good, caring friend, and the only one who actually has a personality. Sure, she’s kinda a psycho, but I think I would be too if I was trapped in that world.
I think I've worked out why Amaryllis is the only decent character out of the main group: screen presence. She's the star of every scene she's in. Whenever she's on the screen, you pay attention to what she's doing. All the other girls (and Snapdragon) feel way more restrained. None of them really have the same scene presence as she does. Even when there's a scene that's focused on them, your attention wanders, and it becomes really easy to blank them out.
@@imthebossmermaid3648 I understand that's what the creator intended, but given that it's a stupid decision, I choose to ignore it. His whole storyline is just him being weak and feeble. I don't know what the writers were thinking when they wrote that, but it comes across really weird and creepy - "this guy is too pathetic to be a man, clearly he should be a woman instead"
I just finished reading through the comments. Amaryllis is supposed to be an ANTAGONIST?! What was going on in that writer’s room for the primary antagonist to be the central focus in almost every good scene?!
You know you got a bad show on your hands when your protagonists whom your audience is supposed to like and root for seem and behave toxic, unlikeable and childish and your antagonists whom your audience is supposed to hate is the most relatable and fleshed out of them all
Her story as actually interesting and relatable: Do you follow your dreams, or do what you have to do for the sake of your family? It's something that has no easy answer.
Axe girl is the only likable character. Not only is she energetic and looks like she's always having fun (making her WAY better than basically every other character by default) as she's also an earnest trans ally without making it look like deliberate pandering.
It should have just been snap and amaryllis together and snap figuring out their identity with his friend. Itd be so much better if identity was a sentric focus instead of being shoe horned in
so basically any scene involving thyme, sage getting dunked on or where Amaryllis is involved? the girl deserves a series on her own with how she is and her VA giving it all!
I’m amazed at how charming the side characters are. I’m assuming that there were different writers for these characters and it was a coincidence that Amaryllis and Snapdragon’s writers were probably the best in that staff at the time.
Amaryllis should be the one worrying about her posture from carrying the entire show on her back
I wouldn't have minded if they'd show more of her backstory.

Snapdragon and amaryllis aren’t that good either
The only characters I’d say are good are slime boy since he’s the only mellow character who has common sense
And macho cat
@@PK-Radio To each their own. I’d love them to be in a series as well
Litteraly, Snapdragon and Amarylis have so much personality to them that the actuall main characters! (It's just my opinion =P ) I just felt like that the main charas has as much personality as a pebble, Ama and SD also have much more story to them! (Just my opinion once more) I feel like HGS just doesn't feel like it has a plot tbh, but when we're with those two I see alot more potential! So yeah they should have been the stars of the show, and it would have been hella fun to watch SD figuring out who he is really supposed to be, with the help of Ama ofc, I'd much rather follow him through the story than the actuall cast, but once again all of this has been my opinion, I feel like the show could make trans audiences less alone, like those w/ homophobic family's, those who are in a dark place and don't feel accepted...
That would have made SUCH a good show! But once again that's just my perspective.
Thank you for coming to my rant.
Have a good day Lovelies!
And make sure you're taking care of yourselves!
Amaryllis is in almost every clip shown here and that's more right than anything that's done in the show
And Thyme basically sums up everyone's thoughts after watching the show in the last clip
I don’t understand how the “mean” character and her relationship with her friend is TENFOLDS better than the “good guys” friendship.
“my wrist feels like it’s on fire”
*starts having a mental breakdown*
Bro was acting like his wrist literally caught on fire
“You should apologize for that posture sweetie, you look like an invertebrate”😭😭😭😭😭
1:15 she looks like a discount Eda from the owl house
Skin as white as paper ✅
Gray hair ✅
Yellow eyes ✅
Red lipstick ✅
Is an old woman ✅
don't do my girl Eda like that 😔
✨this PISSYICATED posion✨
She does potions. Eda studied in the potions track.
snapdragon’s crying went from “AUG AUHGUH” to “hey 👉👈 i like your nails haha”
So Snapdragon and Amaryllis have perfect chemistry and instead the writers decide to have Snapdragon become romantically interested in one of the worst and boring characters of the entire show.
We could have had frenimies to lovers but noOOOOooo
Buddy, have you seen what type of person is writing this show? The probability of 2 characters having a hetero relationship is tinnier then the shows quality
I agree 10000%

If Snapdragon and Amaryllis were the main characters, I'd actually watch this show.
If only Sage had drank the poison. That was the only time Amaryllis must up, it was by drinking the poison and letting Sage live pretty much.
5:06 is that the real voice acting? I thought it was a meme lmao. It's so wrong in so many levels.
They needed like three more takes to get that right I s2g
lmao was I supposed to take that part seriously. Bro just sounded like a dying horse 💀
LMFAOO
Girl what the fuck💀
Sage=The therapist you DONT need.
Amaryllis=The therapist that you NEED.
5:06 yay! I a moment where I can feel for the character-
5:10 wait…oh no… I FOUND THE WORST LIP SYNCING EVER-
Amaryllis' and Snap's friendship is the best part of the show!🤩
I watched a few reviews, and one of them was heavy critical of Amaryllis aside from her parts with Snapdragon. I thought that she was one of the less annoying character from the little that I saw of her, so I was confused.
This video made me love her.
I want someone to reboot this series and adopt this oddly lovable axe-wielding goblin as the lead tbh
Alter ego pfp
Snapdragon and Amaryllis deserve to be in a different series they were to good for this show
1:13 then they all die* end of the show
I love a happy ending
I wish
Leave my girl amaryllis outta this 😔😔
Who bursts into tears and sounds like that? That’s the sound you make when you’re like fifteen minutes into a crying session and all of your normal sounds have been expended and ur brain just starts coming up with stuff
I feel like amaryllis is a friend we've all had who's rude and bitchy to people they dislike around them but you look past that cause they're your bestie
I've never watched the show but, "who'd want to marry that?" is now my favorite line.
5:12
Are we not gonna talk about that cry? Lmfao
If you put subtitles it makes it funnier
They should have made the antagonist the fuqing protagonist
There are some good parts to it, if only someone else took over the reigns for the production of this series
This was a great independent short, I hope I see more of these wonderful characters.
*Gets handed $100 bill and hides it*
5:06 WHY IS HIS CRYING SO FUNNY BAHAHAHA
💀
Sounds like me dying of asthma
@@sardine6068 LMAOO
The lip sync in the wrist scene is so bad 😭😭😭 HES LITERALLY CRYING AND SUFFERING AND THE LIP SYNC IS JUST 😧😩🙁
Amaryllis is a threat to society and it's actually iconic
Honestly this show just needs a reboot i see alot of potential
Amaryllis is easily one of the most likable characters on the show. She’s a really good, caring friend, and the only one who actually has a personality. Sure, she’s kinda a psycho, but I think I would be too if I was trapped in that world.
Never seen the show but Amaryllis is pretty funny. I’m really liking her chaotic yet somewhat caring attitude lol
I think I've worked out why Amaryllis is the only decent character out of the main group: screen presence. She's the star of every scene she's in. Whenever she's on the screen, you pay attention to what she's doing.
All the other girls (and Snapdragon) feel way more restrained. None of them really have the same scene presence as she does. Even when there's a scene that's focused on them, your attention wanders, and it becomes really easy to blank them out.
Snapdragon is also a girl too!
@@imthebossmermaid3648 I understand that's what the creator intended, but given that it's a stupid decision, I choose to ignore it.
His whole storyline is just him being weak and feeble. I don't know what the writers were thinking when they wrote that, but it comes across really weird and creepy - "this guy is too pathetic to be a man, clearly he should be a woman instead"
ALL THE BEST HIGH GUARDIAN SPICE SCENES!
Proceeds to play every single scene with Amaryllis.
Only thing is…where my Slime Boy?!
i love how it's only 6 minutes long
and it's mostly amaryllis
i thought it would be shorter
Amaryllis is a great character when she’s not being a bully. She’s a genuinely caring person who’d do anything for her friends.
I wish I could write Snapdragon,Amaryllis and Slime Boy into a better show. They deserve so much more.
2 years late but Fanfiction needs you.
Amaryllis's voice actor is amazing. She's also apparently a writer on the show. I really hope things go well for her!
I love how caring Amaryllis was for Snapdragon.
You know you messed up when the "bully" character is more likeable than the protagonist.
This girl hands down deserves her very own spin off.
HIS CRYING AT 5:05 HAS ME DEAD 💀 WTF IS THAT
I just finished reading through the comments. Amaryllis is supposed to be an ANTAGONIST?! What was going on in that writer’s room for the primary antagonist to be the central focus in almost every good scene?!
well she’s only the antagonist for the first few episodes
You know you got a bad show on your hands when your protagonists whom your audience is supposed to like and root for seem and behave toxic, unlikeable and childish and your antagonists whom your audience is supposed to hate is the most relatable and fleshed out of them all
5:05
I thought someone was starting a motor cycle..
Icam't stop, laugh.. What. Who aproveddd thisss
A 100% female writing cast whose goal is to establish diversity approved this.
Amaryllis kinda reminds me of Peridot from steven Universe for some reason
same
Amaryllis NEEDS her own show. She’s the best thing out of this dump fire
So real for putting so many Amaryllis and Snap scenes in. Fr the best characters.
2:09 That laugh though
Idk wht I found that so funny
Reminds me of another Lovable Gremlin, Peridot from Steven Universe.
Gremlin energy
Ikr why are semi-murderous gremlin characters so lovable
hehehehaeee
0:06 how could you deliver such a simple line so badly 😭😭
5:07 BYE THE CRYING CAUGHT ME OFF GUARD😭 If I was the purple haired lady I would be dying laughing
I couldn’t help but laugh when Snapdragon just started breaking down with no build up. This may be why I don’t have friends.
Snap, amaryllis and slimeboy is the only reason i watched the whole show
Amaryllis is a queen
She saved the students
She is a good friend
She is a badass
Parsley honestly deserves way more love. She carried this show. At least for me.
Her story as actually interesting and relatable: Do you follow your dreams, or do what you have to do for the sake of your family? It's something that has no easy answer.
You're absolutely right, too! Parsley seriously deserves way more love!@@jordanloux3883
the way Amaryllis comforts Snapdragon actually made me heart melt what
0:05 DABABY??
5:06 Top tier voice acting
When the two secondary characters Amaryllis and Snapdragon are the most enjoyable characters I think you should revisit the script.
Ending with the acknowledgement that a waste of time has been had, is such a good roast of this joke of a show as a whole.
I want a show of just Amaryllis and Snap so I can just watch them grow and be amazing characters.
The dudes crying doesn’t even remotely match his crying face 💀
Amarillys has one of the best voice actors in this show unironically- change my mind
I only watched a few clips and Amaryllis is my favorite character! She is way better than the protagonist!
Axe girl is the only likable character. Not only is she energetic and looks like she's always having fun (making her WAY better than basically every other character by default) as she's also an earnest trans ally without making it look like deliberate pandering.
Which is ironic in the best way, considering that the rest of this show's trans rep is indeed pure pandering.
It should have just been snap and amaryllis together and snap figuring out their identity with his friend. Itd be so much better if identity was a sentric focus instead of being shoe horned in
Yeah - there's a potentially interesting character arc buried beneath a lot of muddled writing
Snapdragon and Amaryllis have a better friendship than the pink one and blue one’s!
She reminds me so much of Raquelle from Barbie 💀💀
Amaryllis and Snapdragon and Slime Boy made me keep some of my sanity watching this show
so basically any scene involving thyme, sage getting dunked on or where Amaryllis is involved? the girl deserves a series on her own with how she is and her VA giving it all!
i have never watched high guardian spice but this amaryllis girl is so peridot coded
I’m amazed at how charming the side characters are. I’m assuming that there were different writers for these characters and it was a coincidence that Amaryllis and Snapdragon’s writers were probably the best in that staff at the time.
Amaryllis was partially written by her voice actor, so that might be why.
@@imthebossmermaid3648 Yeah I was glad when I found out
