However, the writers of the series have made a critical misstep that could have drastically altered the course of this conflict, their decision to give the team’s resident loose cannon, Harley Quinn, a powerful magical gun, rather than placing it in the hands of the far more disciplined and tactically-minded Deadshot.
Deadshot Alone Could Have Turned the Tide of Battle

In the latest episode of Suicide Squad Isekai, Harley Quinn‘s acquisition of the magical gun has given her tremendous firepower, her erratic and unpredictable fighting style means she has not been able to use it to its full potential. In contrast, Deadshot is known for his unparalleled marksmanship and ability to take out multiple targets with precision. If he had been the one to obtain the magical gun, he could have easily overwhelmed the undead forces, picking them up from a distance with devastating shots.
His expert sharpshooting has been crucial to the team’s survival, and giving him access to the magical gun’s power would have taken him to an entirely new level. Imagine if Deadshot had been the one to wield the gun, he could have annihilated legions of the enemy in the blink of an eye. Rather than the drawn-out, grueling battles the Suicide Squad has endured.
The writers made a critical mistake in denying Deadshot this opportunity. His skill and temperament would have been perfectly suited to unleashing the gun’s power in the most devastating and efficient way possible.
Suicide Squad Isekai Missed the Chance to End the War Swiftly

Ultimately, the decision to give the magical gun to Harley Quinn rather than Deadshot represents a massive missed opportunity for the “Suicide Squad Isekai” anime. Deadshot’s proven ability to turn the tide of battle, combined with the sheer power of the gun, could have allowed him to decimate the enemy forces and bring a swift end to the war.
Instead, the Suicide Squad continues to struggle against the relentless onslaught of the undead, with Harley’s use of the gun creating more chaos than order. It’s a frustrating development for fans who know that Deadshot could have been the key to victory all along. With the war still raging on, one can’t help but wonder how different things would have been if the writers had made the right choice in bestowing the magical gun.
In the climactic finale of the episode, Harley Quinn and Arthur were able to defeat the powerful Enchantress. However, the situation remained dire, just as it seemed Deadshot would be overrun by the undead, the unexpected arrival of Cecil turned the tide. With major victories, the war was far from over, they are now facing the daunting task of pushing back the remaining undead threats.
Suicide Squad Isekai is available to watch on Hulu.
