Escuadrón Suicida Isekai

I hope you learn something from this review because I sure did. My vocabulary expanded greatly thanks to this anime and I'll be able to describe other similar shows better in the future.

"Suicide Squad Isekai" is a unique fusion of the Suicide Squad's chaotic energy with the fantastical elements of an isekai world. The series stands out for its unique premise, stylish animation, and silly humor mixed in. Harley Quinn's voice actor shines brilliantly, bringing a dynamic and energetic performance that captures Harley's manic charm and carefree nature. It blends a bit of the classic Harley Quinn that old-school fans are used to with the modern style that was made famous by Margot Robbie.

In general, the voice acting for all the characters so far is well done. The story is decent though ultimately it's the humor and crazy antics of the squad that make it an entertaining series.

Overall, "Suicide Squad Isekai" is a fresh and fun take on the franchise, well worth a watch for fans and newcomers alike. I say give it a shot!

OH Yeah, I totally get it if some ppl don't like this. There has been quite a bit of Suicide Squad content the last few years. From the 2016 movie to the sequel a few years back. Birds of Prey might as well be a Suicide Squad movie but with the ladies. And then there's to majority criticized Kill The Justice League game, which ultimately left a sour taste in the majority of the fandom's mouths.

All this said, I would not be surprised if a majority of people disliked this. The series is nothing amazing. It's not trying to be the next Demon Slayer or One Piece. It's just an entertaining Suicide Squad series set in an anime setting, using the typical Isekai concept that anime fans know all too well.

But here's the truth, from a person who feels the same and most people about all the above.

Its good. Not great. But good.

The first episode is nothing to rave about. But the next three episodes especially the 4th one is the reason why I'm continuing the series. The voice actors are doing an awesome job, some of them seasoned VAs from popular anime that we all love. The story isn't perfect but having watched the last two episodes I can see a good story forming and the world is starting to come together.

I highly recommend fellow anime fans give this series a chance. It's worth it. Harley, Kingshark, Peacekeeper, and even Deadshot all get some funny moments and ultimately the anime is really just about the Suicide Squad getting into trouble and causing a little bit of chaos and violence.

I say, try it with an open mind. It's not bad at all.

Fun show that knows about everything isekai and uses the tropes perfectly. The show strikes a great balance of fights and comedy for me.

As a lover of anime and DC cartoons this was the perfect combination for me and I was not dissapointed.

Only critique I have is that DC should stop relying so heavily on Harley Quinn. She is a fun/amazing character but it's getting kind of tired. That said, she fits perfectly here and I wish she got to use more of the worlds magic for silly things. I do wish however we got more screentime for world building. An establishment of the rules of the new world is a part I enjoy about isekai.

I'd definitely recommend this show, even if you dont enjoy anime and are just a regular DC fan there will still be enough to enjoy in this show.

One of the things I'm sure that people might be thinking is if this is just a cash grab series like the video game Kill The Justice League, which ended up being hated by many fans. I think it's safe to say it kinda is but in a good way. The truth is the Suicide Squad sells and I'm not surprised Wit Studio and Warner Bros decided to try to capitalize on this. It's definitely a lot better than the game. Harley is very much a mix of the classic version and the new version. Clayface, Peacemaker, and Deadshot are all entertaining to watch. And Kingshark is basically always eating people which is pretty funny.

The voice acting is good and the music is energetic and fun. The story itself isn't super complex but theres some interesting world building and the characters are definitely entertaining to watch. The animation is good, something that Wit Studio has always done pretty well with. It's not going to be the best anime of the year, but it's not going for that. The writers are making this for easy viewing and entertainment. It's pretty good overall and I recommend to anyone wanting to just watch something fun and laid-back. Not everything has to be serious, sometimes a little Isekai with Harley Quinn is all you need.

Give it a go, it's worth it.
