The Zamasu arc has finally finished for "Dragon Ball Super," but the adventures of Goku and his friends are far from over. Reports are going around about what fans can expect in the upcoming episodes, and it looks like there will be some filler episodes.

Todd Blankenship (Herms98) on Twitter posts translations of Japanese articles which give hints on upcoming "Dragon Ball" episodes. According to a recent post, the 69th episode will be titled "Goku vs Arale! The Earth Ends in a Wacky Battle?!"

The description then goes on to say that the episode will show the leader of the Z Warriors himself, Son Goku, taking a part-time job as a security guard at the "World Invention Award." The event is said to feature the inventions of Senbei Norimaki. There will also be appearances from characters like Dr. Mashirito, Dr. Slump, Gatchan and more.

No further description is provided for the episode, but based on the title, Goku may be fighting Arale while weird inventions malfunction during the convention. This episode is also said to mark the first crossover between Dragon Ball and the rest of the other titles that Akira Toriyama has created.

As for future episodes, titles have already been revealed for episodes 70 and 71. Though no description has been added, episode 70 is said to be titled, "Champa's Challenge! This Time We Face Off in Baseball!!" By the looks of it, it may be another filler episode for the series where the characters just have fun and do not face any real threats.

Episode 71, however, is titled, "Death To Goku! A Hit-Job That Can't Be Refused." Rumors have suggested that the episode may start off another arc for the series and feature the return of the renowned assassin, Hit.

A new episode of "Dragon Ball Super" airs every Sunday at 9 a.m. JST on Fuji TV.
