Dragon Ball Super is currently on hiatus, with the Granolah the Survivor Arc coming to an end by introducing Black Frieza but not informing readers as to when the Shonen series will make its grand return. In the meantime, it seems that the franchise’s artist, Toyotaro, is taking the opportunity to share new takes on Goku’s latest form, with Ultra Instinct seeing some major changes as a result of the Z-Fighter’s battle against Gas, the strongest Heeter looking to eliminate the Saiyans.
Ultra Instinct has become a wild new transformation in Son Goku’s arsenal, with him first learning the new form during the Tournament of Power in his battle against Jiren. Since this arc brought Dragon Ball Super’s television series to an end, the Z-Fighter has learned a number of new forms that make up the major power-up, using them during his battle against Moro, Granolah, and the most powerful Heeter known as Gas. Whenever the manga returns, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see Goku continuing to explore this transformation that brings him one step closer to fighting on an even playing field with the gods.

Twitter Outlet DBS Hype shared this new take on Goku’s Ultra Instinct form, with this latest iteration being presented during the fight against Gas and coming about thanks to the Z-Fighter learning more about the background of his father and how Bardock was able to break away from the usual murderous intentions of his fellow Saiyan warriors:
Following Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero’s success, the creators behind the feature-length film have already confirmed that a new anime project is in the works, though detail about its story are few and far between. With Dragon Ball Super set to have a presence at this year’s Jump Festa, we might be waiting until December when it comes to word on the manga’s return as the hiatus following the Granolah Arc continues.
How many more Ultra Instinct forms do you think Goku can learn? Do you think Black Frieza will play a pivotal role in the next arc of Dragon Ball Super? Feel free to let us know in the comments or hit me up directly on Twitter @EVComedy to talk all things comics, anime, and the world of the Z-Fighters.
