We just watched Dragon Ball Super Episode 69 unfold and it is a fresh breath of air. With the emergence of Arale and other creations of Senbie Norimaki, the episode showed a lighter side of the series.
Dragon Ball Super Episode 70: Challenge From Champa! Let's Fight In Baseball
As reported by one of the respectable Reddit user, episode 70 will be somehow similar to episode 69. It will again show a lighter side of the episode while preparing us for the new arc which is scheduled on December 18. This episode will focus on Champa's Challenge(One of The Gods Of Destruction) which is to battle his team(universe 6) against Beerus Team(universe 7) in a baseball game. This episode is a perfect spot for some of the characters to return mainly, Gohan and Yamcha.
YouTube user Sam Kan, is the culprit who made the hashtag #MakeGohanGreatAgain famous. He is also a credible source when it comes to updates and spoilers when it comes to Dragon Ball Super Series. He is like geekdom and Herms98 to a some degree. Fans are hoping for Gohan's return as he is outcasted for numerous occasion. He appeared in episode 68 but it was not enough for us fans. He just asked Shenron to cure his baby, Pan Chan.
The episode will likely unite all the best characters for Universe 6 and 7 in a friendly baseball match. Yamcha is 90 percent in already when it comes to his participation on the episode. As noted before, Yamcha is the sports guy in Dragon Ball franchise. He is good at playing sports and in one of the earliest episode, he played baseball and made the winning play. Episode 70 will also be a setup for the dark episode that is about to come.
Dragon Ball Super Episode 71: Goku Dies, Assassination Order That Must Be Performed
Apparently, after the two light episodes, here comes darkness once again. The title of episode 71: Goku Dies, Assassination Order That Must Be Performed is very intriguing. First, if you are going to plainly look at it, it indicated that our favorite hero, Goku will die on this episode. But if you are going to read it by context, it is unlikely that he will be killed. The key word there in the title is the word "must" it means to say that it wasn't done yet.
However, let us check those possibilities. According to a valid source, Hit from universe 6 will kill Goku due to an order from one of the Gods. They already face each other before but the difference this time is, there are no rules. Goku might have progress with his ability but do not count out Hit the assassin. His tokitobashi or time skipping technique is the most powerful weapon in the series right now. He might have adjusted his technique when he first met Goku.
There are also other angles that was shown by our source. He believes(and I agree with him) that episode 71 is not a filler. This will very be the first first episode of the new arc. He also explained it in details that Hit from Universe 6 might be hired by somebody who despise Goku a lot. He then admit to check other sources but there are no details yet on who was the guy who hired hit to end Goku.
