History Recap / DragonBallSuperHitArc

* BadassFingersnap: How Beerus destroys Bulma's time machine. Which was hidden in a secret bunker.

* {{Crossover}}: Again with ''Manga/DoctorSlump'' in episode 69 though this time a full on one with Senbei coming to the city to receive an award. However, the ghost of his arch-nemesis returns and screws with Arale's programming to ruin his day. Both Goku and Vegeta get involved in trying to stop her.

* WastefulWishing: Most of the wishes that the cast want to ask Shenron are pretty inane.

* HowWeGotHere: The opening of episode 71 begins with Goku collapsing to the ground and Piccolo, Gohan and Goten arriving to discover that he is dead. The rest of the episode goes back in time and shows the events leading up to said incident.

* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Episode 71 has Goku being this for the first half of the episode; instead of gorging in his food during lunch time, he eats one '''grain''' of rice at a time. We later find out he was trying to sense whoever it was that's trying to kill him.

* LighterAndSofter: In comparison to the very dark Future Trunks arc that preceded it the Hit Arc is noticeably more relaxed. Goku's death is rectified in the next episode, the majority of the episode is just Hit and Goku complementing each other/trying to outclass one another and at the end of the arc we find out that the person who hired Hit was Goku himself because he wanted to fight Hit at his best.
* MoodWhiplash: All over the place in episode 71. The episodes ColdOpen involves Goku collapsing to the ground and Piccolo, Gohan and Goten arriving on the scene to find Goku dead with his [[DiesWideOpen eyes open]]. Then for about half the episode Gohan and Goten are trying to figure out why Goku is acting so weird as Goku wanters around a city acting odd and embarrassing. Then it's revealed by Goku that someone out there has been sent to assassinate him and said assassin is Hit.

* WorthyOpponent: Hit and Goku both see each other as this now; not only was Hit willing to ignore his orders and spare Goku's life if he pretended to be dead Goku is okay with fighting Hit at his best because he wanted their rematch to have no limits and, as we find out at the end of the arc, Goku ''hired Hit himself'' for that very reason. At the end of the arc Vegeta even seems to get jealous asking if Goku likes fighting Hit now more then him.

* {{Crossover}}: Again with ''Manga/DoctorSlump'' in episode 69 though this time a full on one with Senbei coming to the city to receive an award. However, the ghost of his arch-nemesis returns and screws with Arale's programming to come ruin his day. Both Goku and Vegeta get involved in trying to stop her.
* ForgottenFirstMeeting: When Goku and Arale start to square off, they seem to recognize each other...and they ask who the other is. Again, like last time, it's been 30 years since they last saw each other. So they wouldn't remember who the other was.

* CantGetAwayWithNothing: Bulma tries to study into time travel again despite being told by Beerus and Whis that it was illegal to do so. The reason she wanted a wish was to get a power source for the time ship. Beerus ultimately finds out however and destroys both the crystal she was trying to get, the notes from her future self and the ship to prevent any more time travel much to her dismay.

* CallBack: In episode 71 a news report on an unknown planet in Universe 6 notes that the criminal Frost is still at large referencing TheReveal about [[EvilAllAlong Frost's true nature]] back in episode 40 of the Champa Arc.

* ScrewThisImOutOfHere: Ep 68 is generally about trying to get a wish from Shenron with Goku trying to wish King Kai, Bubbles and Gregory back to life, but others get in the way and they have to use one of their two wishes to cure Pan of a fever she was having when none of the modern medicines work. Ultimately Shenron can't take the silliness everyone's squabbling anymore and cancels his power before Goku can make his wish.

** Hit himself is notably different in his behaviour around [[WorthyOpponent Goku]] compared to his other assassination victims. Not only is he much more willing to talk about how his techniques work and initially wanting to fake Goku's death out of respect for him and smiling a lot more openly around others during their rematch. It's even {{lampshaded}} by Vados who notes that, by the end of their match, it's no longer an assassination contract for Hit but instead a showcase of skill from one martial artist to another.

Set shortly after the events of the Future Trunks arc Goku and friends are enjoying a well earned rest and getting prepared for Zen'O's upincoming Multiversal Tournament. However things take a snag when Hit makes his return in order to carry out his most recent assassination contract. His target? ''Son Goku''.

* MoodWhiplash: All over the place in episode 71. The episodes ColdOpen involves Goku collapsing to the ground and Piccolo, Gohan and Goten arriving on the scene to find Goku dead with his [[DiesWideOpen eyes open]]. Then for about half the episode Gohan and Goten are trying to figure out why Goku is acting so weird as Goku wanters around a city acting odd and embarrassing. Then it's revealed by Goku that someone out there has been send to assassinate him and said assassin is Hit.

** In episode 72, after getting battered through a mountain range, Goku's hand starts trembling. According to Hit Goku isn't trembling from excitement by ''fear'' a fact that Goku concedes is true.

* MundaneUtility: By this point the Dragon Balls have become this for the main cast who are so used to the Eternal Dragon that now they are perfectly content with abusing said balls in order to grant incredibly mundane wishes which include; the perfect gift for Krillin (18), sexy ladies (Roshi), panties (Oolong) and a specific rock to power a time machine (Bulma). Hell Trunks and Goten don't even have a specific wish in mind, they just wanted one granted because everyone else were trying to get one!

* TimeStandsStill: Hit's ability to do this is again showcased, but he doesn't use it on Goku due to knowing Goku already knows that move and how to counter it. He does use it to kill his first mark, however, including using it to infiltrate his building without once being seen.

* BaseballEpisode: Episode 70 involves a baseball match between Universes 6 and 7, which Champa originally conceived in an attempt to steal food from U7's Earth. Considering Yamcha is the only person there who actually knows how to play (other than Vados and Whis, who took the time to read the rule book), things go downhill from there.

* OOCIsSeriousBuisness: Episode 71 has Goku being this for the first half of the episode; instead of gorging in his food during lunch time, he eats one '''grain''' of rice at a time. We later find out he was trying to sense whoever it was that's trying to kill him.

Hell Trunks and Goten don't even have a specific wish in mind, they just wanted one granted because everyone else were trying to get one!

* BreatherEpisode: The three episodes leading up to Hit's return involve; Goku trying to bring King Kai back to life using the Dragon Balls and being constantly interrupted by his greedy friends all of whome want to use the Dragon Balls for themselves, Arale returning for a wacky gag episode, and finally members of the Universe 6 and 7 teams coming together to compete in a game of baseball.
