Friday, May 31, 2024 saw the Suicide Squad Isekai anime series release a new character promotional video, this time focused on the character Peacemaker. The trailer primarily focuses on highlighting voice actor Takehito Koyasu’s work in the role, with most of its 30-second runtime being “narrated” by Koyasu’s trademark voice.

The Suicide Squad Isekai anime’s latest promotional video also gives fans a taste of the action and violence they can expect from the series, with Peacemaker fighting various characters throughout. The trailer is admittedly brief with a less than 30-second runtime, but it does show some excitingly high quality animation and dark tones which fans are excited for.

The Suicide Squad Isekai anime serves as an original anime production collaboration between Warner Bros. Japan and WIT Studios, best known for their work on the Attack on Titan anime.

The series will focus on taking the titular DC Comics characters, the Suicide Squad, and transporting them to a fantasy world, playing into the “isekai” genre and explaining the title’s use of the word.
