Eri Osada (JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken Part 4: Diamond wa Kudakenai episode director) is directing the anime at Wit Studio. Tappei Nagatsuki (Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu) and Eiji Umehara (Vivy: Fluorite Eye's Song) are penning the script.

Synopsis
In the crime-ridden city of Gotham, Amanda Waller, the head of A.R.G.U.S., has assembled a group of notorious criminals for a mission: Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Peacemaker, Clayface, and King Shark. These Super-Villains are sent into an otherworldly realm that's connected to this world through a gate. It's a world of swords and magic where orcs rampage and dragons rule the skies—an "ISEKAI"!

With lethal explosives planted in their necks, there's no running or hiding, and failing the mission means a one-way ticket to the afterlife! Can Harley Quinn and her crew conquer this perilous ISEKAI realm?! Brace yourselves for the pulse-pounding saga of the elite task force known as the "Suicide Squad" as they embark on a jaw-dropping adventure! (Source: Warner Bros.)

@malvarez1 I belong to the group of anime fans who are really not into isekai genre and prefer to avoid it by default. And yet, I'm really excited about this upcoming show. The concept is positively crazy. It mixes Western franchise (DC Universe) with tropes known from the Japanese animation (isekai genre, aesthetics, etc.), and in general broughts a breath of fresh air. Like you said, the protags are not your usual generic isekai characters. These elements made me quite hyped about this series.

Oh, and judging by its trailer, it's gonna have really cool looking visuals and animation.

I still think that someone getting isekai'd to the DC universe would have been more interesting.

@RobertBobert it was a mess plotwise and I did not like the characters.

I know people are sick of isekai, but this one actually looks fun. Maybe it's because the protags aren't your usual heroic types.

@Nachtwandler_21 May I know why? In my opinion it was a pretty enjoyable one time sci-fi show.

And they still flatly refuse to add Scott Pilgrim

Not a fan of either isekais or Suicide Squad but it looks good so far. My only problem is the scriptwriter combo (I know a lot of people love ViVi but I personally hated it).

god the cast has me screaming. I don't know if i'm gonna watch in English or Japanese now

Yeah definitely watching this for Harley Quinn, Deadshot, and probably Ivy if she ever shows up.

DC trying to make some money with the otaku public, whatever God wants this anime to be hehe. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Lmao this looks like it'll be fun as hell, I'm definitely going to check this out.

Dec 1, 2023 2:23 PM by thebrentinator24

Where is Ivy? Sad if she doesn't show up.

Dec 1, 2023 2:20 PM by Absurdo_N

Why does this just screams "cashgrab" isekai and DC villians, this feels sooo cheesy tbh

Umehara Yuichiro voicing joker yo! Not that there'll be much of him. Not expecting much from this though. Not a big fan of the og suicide squad or usual dc stuff except the dark knight movie trilogy and some other batman stuff.

@VanishingKira Why are you expecting this to be a garbage ? Just because it's based on Western comics or there are some other reasons.

Dec 1, 2023 11:32 AM by ZXEAN

Harley Quinn's design look great, otherwise expecting this to be garbage.

New fanarts of her will be great.

Dec 1, 2023 11:26 AM by VanishingKira

Man, that WB going for a hattrick, first the Suicide Squad the movie bombed, then the Suicide Squad the game is sure as hell of a bomb, and now they also want an anime bomb.

This is not how you not have your company 20 billions in debt, not with performances like this, lol.

Dec 1, 2023 11:22 AM by Swagernator

It looks gorgeous. I've already been positive about this show for a while, but with each next news I'm getting more hyped.
