Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

It's probably just Hit imagining something or having a dream. Goku looks slightly faded too.

Or Hit shrunk Goku and he's now disappearing.

You don't need to spoiler tag your posts in here.

If you zoom in on the image, you can see Goku is translucent. I'm pretty sure it's a hologram rather than any giant Hit form.

Could this mean giant form Hit vs giant form Piccolo.
I just want Hit vs Piccolo in any form anyway.

It is probably not a giant form hit but Hit still needs to kill Goku to make things interesting.

Hologram of the target. In fiction at least, assassin's usually get these. Though this implies that the person in question wasn't at the tournament

The new ending is already my favorite ending even though it hasn't even been featured yet.
I honestly don't think they can screw over such a good song even if they try.

The more I listen to it the more I love it.
I think it actually could fit an arc about Hit quite a bit, perhaps even more than the Zamasu arc.

Has it been confirmed whether there will be an actual Hit arc or just a couple episodes?
And will it be Anime only?

I believe a short arc, like the Copy Water, since the next big Toriyama arc is apparently being announced in the next few days.

The scripts for the episodes are done long before they hand the descriptions to newtype, so yeah.

Toyotaro says he'll be ahead of the anime and the first two episodes of this Hit stuff has 4 of the very best supervisors on them. The next Toriyama arc is probably a ways away for the anime.

This looks more like a visual effect in order to convey how much Hit is looking forward to Goku, if anything.

I think I kind of understand what you are saying..
I am still going with the more interesting theory that hit took Goku's very soul! :D

Yeah this is almost definitely the case. I wouldn't mind a giant form though. I mean he's already a better piccolo.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Speaking of assassins, there's something interesting that I noticed about Hit. He seems to always have his hands in his pockets.

Killua from Hunter x Hunter, another assassin, also normally has his hands in his pockets.

Is this some kind of "assassin trait" or just a coincidence.

It also strikes me as odd that Hit has almost zero similarities to the other assassins in Dragon Ball, namely Tao Pai Pai and Tenshinhan (who was training to be an assassin).

If you wish to consider the promotional manga's explanation, Hit keeps his hands in his pocket to obscure his movements.

I'd say it's more a 'Cool-speedster-Character' trait

He keeps his hands in his pockets before striking so his opponent can't see what he's going to do.
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.
