[Mori Calliope Comment]
Since my debut, providing music for an anime and performing has been my ultimate dream. I’ve wished for it for years, but I never imagined the day would come when it would become a reality. “Go-Getters” is a powerful anthem for the emotions I’ve cherished as an artist. Even if others try to vilify you, raise your voice, live boldly without shame, and be true to yourself. I crafted lyrics embodying the message I’ve needed myself, thinking of both myself and all of us. And of course, enjoy the intense beats by Giga and TeddyLoid!

In the criminal city of Gotham, A.R.G.U.S. Director Amanda Waller summons Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Peacemaker, Clayface, and King Shark for a mission. These notorious villains are sent to an alternate world, connected through a gate, where swords and magic reign, and orcs roam while dragons soar: the “ISEKAI.” Upon arrival, Harley and her team wreak havoc but are swiftly captured by the kingdom’s soldiers and thrown into prison. With bombs strapped to their necks set to explode in 72 hours, Harley and her team negotiate with Queen Aldra for their freedom, leading to a perilous mission to crush the opposing imperial forces. With no choice but to comply, the Suicide Squad embarks on a fantastic and dangerous journey. Can they survive this life-threatening mission in the ISEKAI?
