'Dragon Ball Super' episode 70, 71 spoilers news 2016: Hit to kill Son Goku? 'Omniverse Tournament' saga soon to start

"Dragon Ball Super" filler episode 69 gave fans a hint of what is to come for the next story arc. The episode gave a lighter take on the action-packed series and the next episode is believed to be somewhat similar to the 69th.

A well-known spoiler took it to Reddit to say that "Dragon Ball Super" episode 70 has an almost similar comical presentation with episode 69. This apparently prepares all the viewers for a new arc, which is set to be released on December 18.

The episode concentrates on Champa's Challenge, which is to play a baseball game against the Beerus Team. Aside from the interesting scenes to come, viewers say that the episode is the platform for Yamcha and Gohan to return to the series.

Sam Kan, a popular YouTuber among "Dragon Ball Super" fanatics, made the hashtag #MakeGohanGreatAgain as the series did not feature much of the beloved character. Viewers were able to get a glimpse of Gohan in episode 68 but were not satisfied by what they saw. The famous character just graced the episode to ask for a cure for his child, Pan Chan.

As for "Dragon Ball Super" episode 71, titled "Goku Dies! Assassination order that must be performed," it is said to be the start of the "Omniverse Tournament" saga after several filler episodes. Viewers expect the return of Hit in the series, and he will be the next enemy of Goku.

However, details of "Dragon Ball Super" episode 71 remain scarce. Viewers can only wonder if Goku, this time around, will face a strong enemy that will cause his demise. "Dragon Ball" fans reportedly believe that someone ordered Hit to kill Goku.

Episode 72, titled "Counter Attack? An Invisible Assassination Skill," is scheduled to air on Dec. 25. No details have been revealed for the episode but based on the title of episode 71, the famous Goku may die after battling with Hit.
