Goku battles it out with Arale in the upcoming episode of "Dragon Ball Super."

Episode 69 is titled "Goku VS Arale! Earth Ends in a Wacky Battle?!" and as noted by spoiler reports, the plot will highlight a dream match between Goku and Arale. It is believed that Arale has unusual powers that even Vegeta could not match. The story kicks off with Bulma being present at the World Invention Awards. As fans can remember, Bulma is a well-known scientist who also owns Capsule Corporation. Many scientists from various parts of earth attend the said event because it gives tribute to inventors, and it looks like scientist Senbei Norimaki will also be there. Vegeta eventually finds himself fighting against Senbei's project, the purple-haired energetic Android Arale Norimaki.

Mr. Satan, a renowned Martial Arts Champion, also known as Hercule, serves as the presenter for the event. Goku will also attend the awards ceremony but not as a guest. Instead, he will be a part-time security guard to make sure nothing goes wrong. While the awards ceremony is ongoing, an unexpected commotion involving Arale ensues. There are speculations that the prize will be won by Arale. Out of frustration, because he was not invited to the ceremony, Doctor Mashirito attacks Arale. After her confrontation with Mashirito, Arale will reportedly fight against Goku next.

On another note, "Dragon Ball Super" will finally be launched in Toonami Asia on Jan. 21. Prior to its launch, the hit anime series will have a special preview of the first episode on Dec. 17. This new set of episodes will be aired with an English dub. Most "Dragon Ball Super" fans initially expected the English dubbed episode to arrive around July or August this year, but the company had to push the release date to 2017 instead.

"Dragon Ball Super" episode 69 is scheduled to air on Sunday, Dec. 4, and it will be available for streaming on Crunchyroll.
