Review of Suicide Squad Isekai

Suicide Squad Isekai is not Warner Bros. first go around at an anime featuring its characters. There is already the memorable Batman Ninja. However, it is the first time it combined the popular isekai genre with these assholes, pardon the language, from the Suicide Squad. So, it has your Japanese occidentalist fantasy setting, with elves, beatmen, dragons, and a whole lot of magic. It even has a loli death god for a final boss. The American contribution is the ultraviolence this particular set of characters have a penchant for. This version of the Squad even have their own magical girl transformation scene. The animation issuperb, about as well as can be expected from the Studio Wit. The producers must pull out the stops because this is a collaboration that can’t fail.,

However, the story is all over the place. There are several story points that remain unresolved, and it felt like the plot was just going around in circles. It is not as obvious when you are watching an episode weekly, but when you are binge watching, it will feel repetitive at times.

This is a good show to watch with your brain off and just enjoy the quality animation poured into it. If you are a DC comics fan who enjoys a bit of guilty pleasure isekai stories, this is for you. If you want to watch the hypnotic Amanda Waller dance number at the end credits, give in and enjoy it.
