The last episode of "Dragon Ball Super" was a bit gloomy. Evil Hit, who was hired to finish off Son Goku, appeared to have succeeded in his mission. Worse than that, the hired assassin did so with a solitary punch. In February next year, the producers will roll out a new story for its fans as the 12 Universes of Dragon Ball are finally coming to a head. However, before the big reveal, a number of familiar characters will be reintroduced in the 'Dragon Ball Super' Latest Episode 73.

Dragon Ball Super episode 72 was aptly titled "Will There Be A Counterattack?! The Invisible Killing Strike." The episode ended with assassin Hit having killed Son Goku. Both Goten and Gohan are teary at their father's side. Although Piccolo took them safe to their father, it's hardly believable that Son Goku is gone.

It may also be true that Son Goku is still alive. As shown in the episode, Gohan comes to know that Son Goku launched his powerful Ki Energy into the sky instead of blasting away the hired assassin. This move was a pretty clever one as the Ki energy falls back on Son Goku's body, bringing him back to life. Hit obviously left the place after having failed to do what he was hired for. However, he did promise to make a comeback. It's very much probable that we'll see the assassin in coming episodes of "Dragon Ball Super". Also, Chi-Chi makes a vow to destroy anyone who tries to harm Son Goku.

"Dragon Ball Super" latest episode 73 will be full of adventures. On another note, it may also re-introduce some familiar characters back in the story including Gohan and Mr. Satan. The upcoming episode will be titled "Gohan's Disaster! Great Saiyaman's Unbelievable Movie Adaptation?!" and will come out on January 7, next year.

The promo to the "Dragon Ball Super" latest episode 73 shows Gohan wearing his Great Saiyaman outfit, after taking a break from his long study routine. Well, Gohan is not set to fight instead, he'll be working as a stuntman in a movie. The movie scenes lead to Gohan shooting a fight scene with the powerful martial artist Mr. Satan and our favorite character recognizes that there's more of that left in him.
