“Suicide Squad Isekai”, 3 words you could have never imagined to be said together. But that’s the exciting world we live in now. Warner Bros in a partnership with Wit Studio is presenting to us something out of this world, figuratively and literally. An anime about a deadly group of criminals from DC comics in an Isekai anime.

This would’ve never been something I would have thought to have on my 2024 must-watch list. Well, I first got to know about it in our very own Deshi Geek ‘Top 5’ segment as Suicide Squad Isekai took the top spot in the ‘5 Best Upcoming Isekai Anime’ list.  What exciting new turns this anime will entail for future US and Japanese anime collabs we’ll wait to see.

Slated for a grand debut in 2024, Suicide Squad Isekai is aiming to blur the lines between genres, promising a cocktail of gritty Suicide Squad action and the otherworldly charm of Isekai. This is a combination of insanely different ingredients and only time will tell if it’s going to turn out as a delicacy or a recipe for disaster.

Let’s Talk Suicide Squad & Suicide Squad Isekai

Before we dive into the otherworldly aspect of Suicide Squad Isekai let’s peek into the past, and you’ll find the origin of Suicide Squad making its mark back in 1959 in DC Comics’ “The Brave and the Bold.” Crafted by Robert Kanigher and Ross Andru, this team of daredevils started off as war heroes.

Fast forward to the 80s, and we see a new crew, notorious supervillains this time, undertaking deadly missions for a shot at freedom. It’s this era that introduced us to legends like Harley Quinn, Deadshot, and Captain Boomerang, turning Suicide Squad into a dark and twisty hallmark of DC’s storytelling universe.

The Isekai Twist: The Isekai genre has been taking the anime world by storm, with characters finding themselves transported or reincarnated into parallel universes or mystical lands. Is Warner Bros Japan throwing Suicide Squad into this mix with Suicide Squad Isekai?

It’s a bold move for sure, promising a wild ride where our favorite antiheroes tackle a whole new world of challenges. You’ll see the squad’s classic chaos meets the limitless imagination of Isekai in the setting of Japanese anime. How cool is that!!!
