Suicide Squad Isekai is Terrible? and TBH I'd Drop It if Tappei Wasn't Writing It

Even disregarding the massive hurdle to overcome with the brand already damaged thanks to the game Suicide Squad Kill The Justice League that released earlier this year. Suicide Squad Isekai has a stellar staff, but somehow squanders Tappei-sensei & Eiji-sensei potential as the writers of the show. Two incredible writers suited for fantasy stories being held back for some reason. The animation and art is good, but its not enough to win me over.
I feel if not for Tappei and Eiji writing this, I would drop the show after these first 3 episodes that released.
Love you all so much thank you for all the support!

It had a very mediocre start which I feel will filter people so his point about dropping is on point. They were smart to push out the first 3 episodes imo because episode 1 seemed particularly uninteresting. There was more to episode 2 and 3. I'm not sure if it was just me, but the characters started off rough but seemingly improved as episodes went on. I felt the same way about the comedy improving. The problem is while the characters did start to suck me in a bit mor, the main plot is still just "whatever".

I actually heavily disagree with you this time Chibi. The show is loads of fun to watch. Its got good fights, already good characters we know, an interesting ridiculous premise, and some decent comedy. I think looking at the show as a trash isekai fan and dc fan the show is very referential to tropes and history of the characters and genre. The premise of the show is how the suicide squad cast would react to an isekai and I'd say the show nails it perfectly. All of the characters feel like they'd lept straight out of the movies and even Clayface is close to accurate to who he is. Eccentric movie star driven mad. Some liberties were taken with him for sure to make him look attractive, charismatic, and knowledgeable about isekai, but overall I find it funny rather than annoying. Also according to the opening there are a lot more surprises that will be coming ourway with other DC characters leaking in. My only worry is that the art quality will dip down, but overall im impressed by how this show is panning out so far.

Let’s be frank folks, WB and DC have for years massively overestimated and overhyped the appeal of Harley Quinn and the Suicide Squad. The video game only added insult to apathy. They’re so desperate to make these characters into their own Deadpool and Guardians equivalent that they’re throwing them at everything like darts to a wall, except the darts are poorly constructed and bounce off the wall instead.

[@oscarborjajr1176]

Yeah especially with Harley quinn and my god have they not only forced her to be a pillar in the dc universe but also the writers have ruin Harley quinn with multiple times. Like the Harley quinn show, the comics and ect are terrible and than there is the poison ivy and Harley relationship and what it have becomes which no because they never shown any interest i each other and were just friends( which annoys me to no end and don't get me start on the comics man dc has been making terrible stuff lately like god awful rwby justice movie which were horrific and insulting thank god rt is shutdown and not making anymore especially with volume 9 which was a insult especiallythat ship. She was way better to be with the Joker than trying to make her deadpool or what ever. I mean her character was meant to be joker right hand gal and her chemistry and character works with her. I mean there's reasons why joker and Harley works and it make her character interesting and sympathetic in a way.

Western bros think animating a shitshow with japanese animators and adding "Isekai" in the title is the formula of sucess. Failing to realize that 100%of isekai animes only exist because they are popular light novels first and foremost, with thousands of other stories releasing at the same time and getting rejected or forgotten. Interesting character designs and flashy fight scenes will get people talking maybe a week and then drop it.

that’s what I’m also saying. Fine by me if someone will like it, but it’s clear Warner Bros and DC wanted to chase the trend for anime.

"Hurt the brand" bro let's not pretend the whole brand stinks. It stale they should have had free rain on the whole show.

It’s possible that Tappei might introduce some dark twists in episodes 4-6, which could add a layer of intrigue to the series. However, given that the show is based on a specific IP (Intellectual Property), it might adhere closely to its established storyline and themes, limiting the potential for unexpected deviations. This balance between creative freedom and staying true to the source material often shapes the direction and surprises within such adaptations.

First impression was alright, although after finishing the first episode, I have to wonder: What is the end goal for an Isekai story in the first place? Konosuba is at least meant to be comedic, Re Zero or Mushoku Tensei actually has good lore and world building, however this DC anime didn’t give me that feeling.

[@sekaiomiruhitokaminoyume5426]

End goal for an isekai ? The question is weird , like what the point in imagining a story? See , it’s isekai so something out of your “ world of origin “ it’s still imaginary product like fantasy, what’s the point of fantasy? But it’s the same plot for suicid squad, the same prison plot over and over , they just get to another country, like monster are no big deal since they are used to fight monsters to back home , so in that series the isekai is nothing more than a Japanese word added to the suicid squad to make it look or sound different, but it’s American , feel American, it’s an American anime looking thing, I’m a isekai lover , and for me it’s a failed anime. I’ll probably never watch it , because I already know what will happen, the usual DC stuff American 100% multiverse like …. I’m already not into multiverse stuff, it’s an escape for bad stories, you just say it’s the multiverse, and just try again with the same characters and a different story…like come on , creativity is dead or what ? They gonna do Spiderman isekai to , Batman isekai , everything gonna isekai … but no truck kun ? Show how they actually care about anime

[@sekaiomiruhitokaminoyume5426]

⁠@@superspicysoysauce8231lmao , isekai = different planet , different universe, minimal similarities, different world, universal rules , goal is to free your mind and escape from what you are used to , with magic and fantasy…you are put in a position to choose what world you want , go back , stay here , building a better life from 0 ! Multiverse = literally the same place , but minimal differences, and there is a version of you in all those same different worlds but it’s still you…there is no free your mind , it’s the same stuff , same story all along but one thing is defferent and that’s the plot , you’re not gonna walk like : wooaaaaa so Beutifull “ because it’s , the same way as you are used to … it’s linear , a linear reality , just a way to farm stories with the same characters without having to put much effort , just say : yeah because it’s the multiverse…. So nothing really matters if the multiverse is infinite ♾️, so technically you can be in the position of the powerful enemy, you can just call the powerful you and make it fight the powerful enemy, then what ? You can just switch world , and avoid trouble…it’s the same boring thing

I'd wait till episode 5 to see if the show gets better, but since it's only going to be a 10 episode series, it might not say much. However, based off of what was said about the first 3 episodes, it sounds to me that: 1. WB & DC are most likely to ones who are limiting the staff from going full on with the show. 2. After hearing about the new Scooby-doo anime & the upcoming LotR anime styled film, it's obvious that this show is the start of WB diving into anime.

I actually dropped this *because* Tappei was writing it. That's NOT because I think Tappei is a bad writer, I just don't think his style and specialties is suited for this kind of story. I think Tappei's specialty is character arcs, really strong & impactful emotions, great plotting, and really unique & well-utilized concepts. If you look at his two best works; Re;Zero and Vivy, you'll notice that those things are those stories' biggest strengths. But imo something like Suicide Squad is best suited for a writer who's specialty is character dialogue & character interactions during more mundane moments. And although Tappei's character dialogue is pretty good in it's own right, it's not his specialty. For Eiji, I have no idea what his style is since I haven't watched any of the shows he's worked on besides Re;Zero and Vivy. Based on what I've seen of Suicide Squad Isekai(I only watched the first episode so far), I'm inclined to believe that dialogue isn't his specialty either. Again, I'm not saying that either of them are bad writers or that either of them are bad at writing dialogue or character ineteractions. They're obviously plenty good at those things. I'm just saying that you need writers with a specialty in dialogue for this kind of story. Because the biggest appeal of this story is gonna be the way these characters act and how they interact with each other.

I just watched the first 3 eps and I think it's great and only going to get better. It took until the end of the 3rd ep to have them all in their costumes at full power. This was merely the prelude to the real story and twists they've yet to tell. Still, I was laughing out loud at a lot of scenes, it looks great, sounds great, phenomenal cast, VAs writers and all. I'm on board until the end!

Either your taste in media is overwhelmingly bad or your extremely biased.

[@KingSimius0]

​​@@spoofs974its pretty normal to hate the companies now, especially if you were a fan. Western companies jumping on anime only results in soulless cash grabs. "Its bad taste to not like copy/paste characters into nonsensical situations and to suggest companies do what they are good at instead of ruining other mediums (like manga/anime)" Hard disagree. Strange take. Marvel and DC have been farming L's with no sign of stopping for years.

I’ve been a fan of the DC direct to dvd animated movies for over a decade. Suicide Squad: Hell to pay and Batman:Assault on Arkham are amazing so when this was announced I was really excited. When I found out Captain Boomrang a core member of the suicide squad since the 90s wasn’t in it I got worried. Chibi your initial reaction has me really scared for the outcome of this series.

[@zachhicks7031]

The decision to make the show an Isekai was so baffingly stupid, the concept was desitned to fail from the start. To take a somewhat dark grungy and grounded world and to fuse it with an Isekai makes absolutely no sense. The beginning half of the first episode started off fantastic and the second half just absolutely nosedives harder then ive ever seen any anime episode. The animation is beautiful and the characters are lovingly potrayed but man the writing is just apallingly awful. Overall objectively painfully mid show and personally every element of the Isekai just does not work and ulitmatley drags the show down and makes it trash. Really bummed out with this one.

[@BradMedtron]

I'm a sub connoisseur but this show is worth watching in English dub. Highly recommend watching the Dub coz these characters feel weird when they're talking in Japanese. I'd prefer this than My Adventures with Superman, which is a show that I also love. I urge more people to watch this dubbed.

Honestly didn't know that this was a series. Thought for sure it was a movie. Kinda curious how it will play out.

[@RikuHino]

From your description of the first three episodes it sounds like there's a big pacing issue as well. Like a lot of fluff and stuff that could be cut out for scenes later on. I'm almost 30 and I've been watching anime for most of my life and the older I get the more I start to realize pacing issues where nothing's really happening to advance the plot bandit stagnant for like 3 episodes

[@manuelperalta4458]

Feel like it’s alright nun too crazy a lot of funny moments tho especially the language barrier scene with the knight getting roasted

[@danotazmedia]

Having watched the series myself I think it’s less that they put restrictions on Tappie and more so that he just doesn’t know the material! The way the characters written feel very surface level accurate like he read the Wikipedia page and knows what stereotypes are associated with each character, but doesn’t actually get their personalities or their dynamics within the group! I feel like the script for these first three episodes would’ve been a whole lot better have they had hired someone who’s actually a fan of these comics like Kohei Horikoshi or Yu Chiba!

[@gregfeelynegsyourfavoriteverse]

Man, it sucks because, as a big DC comic fan, I just know this is going to flop. I wish there was actual good DC content outside the comics for once, besides some of the animated series and movies.
