We have some news that's sure to make DC Comics and anime fans very happy indeed!
Though we had no idea this was even in development, Warner Bros. Japan and WIT Studios (via AnimeMojo.com) have announced that a new Suicide Squad ISEKAI (a subgenre in which a character is suddenly transported from their world into a new or unfamiliar one) anime series in the works, and we already have a first teaser trailer.
The promo spotlights Harley Quinn and The Joker, as well as some strange looking pig-like creatures (we assume the Clown Prince of Crime and Harls are the ones that wind up in a strange new reality).
The official synopsis reads:
"Deadly crazy party of the baddest villains land themselves in ISEKAI! The most dangerous & bizarre fantasy adventure unveiled! DC's Harley Quinn and The Joker have been ISEKAI!? Suicide Squad rampages onto the stage of ISEKAI! A new original animation from Japan! The most maddening worlds collide in an epic and violent fantasy with the strongest line-up of creators!"
Eri Osada directs from a screenplay by TAPPEI NAGATSUKI and EIJI UMEHARA. No premiere/release date has been announced, but we'll be sure to keep you updated.
