Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero is set to see some major changes for some of its biggest characters, though these changes have yet to be confirmed in the pages of the manga, as the latest chapters continue to follow Goku and Vegeta fighting the intergalactic crime syndicate known as the Heeters. With Gohan and Piccolo nowhere to be found within the Granolah The Survivor Arc, it will be interesting to see if the stars of Super Hero will play a major role in whatever arc follows the current storyline.
