"Dragon Ball Super" continues its amazing story of stitching together various heroes and villains from different universes. But the upcoming episode could take the series into a darker tone as one of the main characters face the ultimate fate at the hands of a powerful enemy.

Episode 71 Title and Story

Episodes 69 and 70 of "Dragon Ball Super" could be considered as filler episodes because they do not directly tell a continuation of the anime series. But the upcoming episode should take the fans right back at the story with a heartbreaking result. According to a post by Facebook user Gojiitaaf, the upcoming episode is titled "Goku Dies! Assassination order that must be performed."

The title itself reveals a major plot point of the upcoming episode. Goku will meet his fateful end in the next episode as he dies due to assassination. Although the exact identity of the assassin is still unknown, fans have been speculating that Hit could be the man behind the successful attempt.

Of course, Goku will not take the attack sitting down. But the title of the next episode proves that Goku could be defeated. In the same post, the title of the next episode is translated "Counter Attack? An Invisible Assassination Skill!" The title signifies that Goku tries to put up a fight but the assassin still has something dangerous up his sleeve to be successful.

Weekly Schedule

According to My Anime List, "Dragon Ball Super" started July last year. Fans who would like to know more about Goku's challenge should not wait long because the schedule episodes are also posted. The first part of the assassination attempt in Goku is on Dec 18 while the follow-up is on Dec 25.

It is still unknown if the following episodes will feature Goku's survival or untimely death. But based on the titles of the upcoming episodes, Goku is going to have a hard time facing his assassin.
