Earlier today, the latest episode of Super Dragon Ball Heroes went live, and it was a lot. The big update brought its current arc to an end and kickstarted a new one with a never-before-seen universe. Along the way, fans were teased with some impressive animation, but things got out of hand when Goku Black showed up out of nowhere.

Yes, it is true. It seems the villain is back in commission, but he looks different than we remember. Obviously, Goku Black is still the spitting image of Goku, but he is wearing an ornate mask nowadays. The baddie appears to be the Masked Saiyan fans were warned about, so we’ve got some questions about his comeback.

As of yet, this is the first time Goku Black has appeared in Dragon Ball Heroes, but it is far from his first non-canon rodeo. The villain has shown up in Dragon Ball Fusions as well as Xenoverse 2. Now, it seems the villain is ready to try out a new story, and now is the perfect time to test out Dragon Ball Heroes. The arrival of a new universe opens up possibilities, so fans will want to tune in to the anime’s next episode in late March.
