Suicide Squad Isekai episode 8 recap
Suicide Squad Isekai episode 8 began with the titular group returning to Queen Aldora’s castle for an audience with her. Fione tried to speak, but the Queen silenced her as her advisors berated Harley and co for their actions. One of her advisors then slapped Harley, which led Nanue to eat them. The others then sprung into action to protect him, while the Queen’s smirk made it clear that this was her plan all along. She then ordered them all to be executed.
However, Cecil’s protests resulted in only Nanue being ordered for execution and the others for exile. Fione chased after them as they left, apologizing for what happened, but was given the cold shoulder by Harley. The group then headed to a tavern, where they got into a massive fight once they were all drunk. The next morning, the hungover group was woken by Rick, who said they were leaving to go to the Gate to reset the timer on their bombs to rescue Nanue.
Harley left her dragon, Arty, at the bar when they left, saying there was nothing good waiting for him in their world. Rick then contacted Amanda Waller, who blew up Clayface’s bomb and killed him because the mission was “too difficult” to complete. However, they noticed the Royal Capital burning at that moment, which convinced her to let them try one last time. The episode ended with Clayface reviving, the crew heading over, and Fione realizing her mother was possessed.
What to expect from Suicide Squad Isekai episode 9 (speculative)
With episode 8 ending on a flashback to two hours prior, Suicide Squad Isekai episode 9 should continue this flashback starting with Fione confronting her mother, Aldora. More specifically, this should be Fione confronting whatever it is that’s controlling her mother, which seems to have been doing so for the entire series thus far.
In turn, this should reveal exactly what that which is controlling Aldora wants, which almost certainly has to do with the bloodshed the war causes. This would explain “Aldora’s” reactions to the Suicide Squad’s decisive victories thus far, which have been in the Queendom’s favor. The episode should then end with an extended focus on the titular group as they reach the Royal Capital.
