“Dragon Ball Super” Plot Revealed for Episodes 68 to 71: Son Goku Will Die on Ep 71!

A new story arc was recently announced for "Dragon Ball Super" which promises more action and adventure for Goku and his pals from episode 68 to 71. According to January 2017 V-Jump issue, "Dragon Ball Super" next episodes will feature new characters and even a new villain.

Asiastarz reported the new arc saying that the upcoming episodes will test Son Goku's strength and with a new killer on the loose. The new killer will be known as Hit from Universe 7. Hit has only one mission and that is to end the life of Son Goku.

Nobody predicted that a new villain would be featured for the next episodes but V-Jump featured key visuals for the new plot with the killer being introduced by yet another unknown individual. Is Hit really that powerful to beat Son Goku or will this be just another test for the series' hero? No one knows yet what Hit is and what his powers are but titles for the next episodes were already revealed online. Episode 68 entitled "Come Forth, Shenlong! Whose Wish Shall Be Granted?!" was aired November 27 and it was about Son Goku collecting more Dragon Balls to fulfill his wish. The next episodes are as follows:

Episode 69 - "Goku vs. Arale! The Earth Comes to an End Due to Their Battle?" on December 4

Episode 70 - "Challenge from Champa! Let's Fight in Baseball!" on December 11

Episode 71 - "Goku Dies! Assassination Order That Must Be Performed" on December 18

GAMENGUIDE predicted that Hit might appear on episode 71 and this is where he might try to kill Son Goku. Hit is in fact an assassin and he strikes at the least expected time and Son Goku may have no match against him. No one actually knows what will happen after this arc ends and fans would have to wait until episode 71 to find out.

"Dragon Ball Super" airs every Sunday on Fuji TV at 9 a.m. Japan time.
