Warner Bros. describes the story of the original anime:
In the crime-ridden Gotham City, Amanda Waller, head of ARGUS, has assembled a group of notorious criminals for a mission: Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Peacemaker, Clayface, and King Shark. These DC Super Villains are sent to another world connected to this one through a portal. It is a world of swords and magic, where ferocious orcs and dragons rule the skies—an “ISEKAI”! Harley and the others go on a rampage after arriving at ISEKAI but are captured by the Kingdom’s soldiers and thrown into prison. They have only 72 hours before the bomb around their necks detonates. The deadline is fast approaching. After negotiating with Queen Aldora, the condition for their release is the conquest of the enemy Imperial army. They have no choice but to charge straight into the front lines of the battle.
They run; they die. They lose; they die. With their lives on the line, can Harley Quinn and The Suicide Squad survive ISEKAI? Prepare yourself for the thrilling story of the elite task force known as the “Suicide Squad” as they embark on an incredible adventure! Let the party begin!
