Release date and time, and where to read

The official release of Dragon Ball Super Chapter 84 is scheduled for Friday, May 20, 2022. Most international readers will be able to read it via the Manga Plus website and the Shonen Jump+ app. The free Manga Plus service allows readers to enjoy the first and last three issues of a series, while the Shonen Jump+ subscription service allows fans to revisit the entire series.

What to expect and rumors

As mentioned above, no verifiable spoiler information for the upcoming Dragon Ball Super issue is available at this time. However, there are some rumors going around in the community, and fans are also ready with a few surefire guesses as to what the chapter will encapsulate.

It is highly likely that the upcoming issue will mark the resumption of Gas versus Goku in the story's present timeline. Chances are that it will take place sometime in the second half of the issue, giving Goku, Monaito, Vegeta, and Granolah time to process and discuss what they just heard.

Certain sects of the fanbase are claiming that Goku will directly address the wish made by his father in the upcoming issue. While there is no information available to corroborate this rumor, it would make sense given the controversy that followed Bardock’s wish.

Although not very relevant to the story at large, a nice, tiny detail that fans can expect is the formal reconciliation of Goku and Granolah. Now that it’s irrefutable that Bardock protected the latter’s life, Granolah will most likely apologize to and thank the former for his previous acts and his father’s deeds respectively.

Finally, the issue will most likely address how, if at all, Goku will change upon remembering his parents. Fans seem to believe that he will gain some newfound strength or power, and this theory might be proven or disproved in the upcoming chapter.


In summation

Dragon Ball Super Chapter 84 is set to be incredibly exciting. Bardock versus Gas’ conclusion will set up for the latter’s final clash with Goku to mirror his bout with the former.

While we are confident that the resumption of Goku versus Gas will be a part of the upcoming issue, there is no official spoiler information for Dragon Ball Super Chapter 84 available yet. All expectations are speculative at this point.
