The following contains spoilers for the first three episodes of Suicide Squad Isekai.
When fans first saw the trailer for Suicide Squad Isekai, it definitely created an urgent hunger. DC has done anime in the past, such as Batman Ninja. Here, Wit Studio doesn't dive into the past or other chapters in Earth's history -- it takes the anti-heroes to another world.
This idea of visiting other realms, (aka Isekai), has been a major sub-genre in anime, so it's a smart move by DC to capture consumers of comics, anime and manga. With that in mind, here is the full breakdown of the cast and character guide as Task Force X visits a new land for a very different war.

A ten-episode original series “Suicide Squad Isekai,” produced by Warner Bros. Japan’s Anime Production and Wit Studio, will premiere on HBO Go later this month.
The show is an anime (Japanese-style animation) adaptation spawned by the DC Comics universe. It places DC characters including Harley Quinn, The Joker, and the Suicide Squad in new stories. The Japanese word ‘Isekai’ translates into English as ‘another world.’
Earlier this year, Warner Bros. confirmed that it will be increasing the number of such anime adaptations in Asia.
“We have a Japanese anime studio, which has been producing five or ten anime series per year, over the last few years,” said James Gibbons, Wbd president of Asia-Pacific in March. “We’ve approved expansion to take that to more than ten series per year.”
The studio has been operational since 2011 and delivered over 80 titles in that span, a mix of high-quality anime, live action series and movies.
