With the Future Trunks Arc ending, it is not surprising to see a few filler episodes before the new arc for "Dragon Ball Super" starts. Episode 68, titled "Come Forth, Shenron! Whose Wish Will Be Granted?!" was a filler episode in the Future Trunks Arc, but there have been some fans wondering if some parts of the episode might be hinting at what could be expected in the next episodes

The title for episode 69 for "Dragon Ball Super" has been revealed to be "Goku vs Arale! A Ridiculous Battle Will End the Earth?!" Judging from the title alone, a very interesting character will be seen returning in the upcoming episode of "Dragon Ball Super," the android Arale Norimaki.

This will not be the first time that Arale will be seen in the series as she made a brief cameo in "Dragon Ball Super" back in May.

An article by Forbes detailed how Arale's character and own manga came about and it was supposedly with Kazuhiko Torishima urging Akira Toriyama to make Arale the main character because he loved the character.

The upcoming episode and battle between Goku and Arale will definitely be entertaining especially since Arale is one of the most powerful characters that Toriyama has created, according to GameNGuide.

In a video from SSMultiverse, they revealed the upcoming arc for "Dragon Ball Super." The video leaked that the legendary assassin Hit would be a part, if not the main story for the new arc in "Dragon Ball Super. They also stated that someone would be hiring Hit to take down Goku. It is still not known who Hit's employer will be, but it would definitely be an interesting new storyline for the series.

The video also reveals that Champa would be returning to the "Dragon Ball Super" series.

Episode 69 of "Dragon Ball Super" is scheduled to be released on Dec. 4 and below is the trailer for the coming episode.
