"Dragon Ball Super" episode 39 - recap

The episode starts off with a notice about the earthquake. Recently, Japan has witnessed two major earthquakes. Meanwhile, the episode begins with Piccolo looking upset that Goku gives away his secret to tackle Time-skipping technique of Hit. However, Goku believes that Hit will not be able to keep the speed for long.

At one point, Goku attacks Hit but it does not work for him and Goku stumbles. Everyone looks shocked as Goku struggles to get up on his feet.

Hit can now reach 0.2 seconds in his Tokitobashi technique. He feels that Goku has played a key part in improving. As a token of gratitude, Hit does not end Goku and lets him recover.

Later, Goku combines Kaio-Ken x 10 and Super Saiyan Blue form to attack Hit. Lord Beerus feels uncomfortable that Goku can use this technique against him. Beerus denies when Whis tells him about Goku's plan to master Kaio-Ken and Super Saiyan Blue to come after him.

Meanwhile, Vegeta states the combination of Super Saiyan Blue and Kaio-Ken is extremely dangerous. He goes on to compare it with suicide. Hence, Goku shortens the duration of the technique to curb its ill effects.

However, it has to be noted that the control over ki in Super Saiyan Blue form is good and it makes the combination possible.

In "Dragon Ball Super" episode 39, Goku reveals that his Kaio-Ken and Super Saiyan Blue is an incomplete technique. There is only 10 percent chance of succeeding if Goku uses this unique yet dangerous technique.

However, there is 90 percent chance that Goku can die if he unleashes Kaio-Ken and Super Saiyan Blue together.

Meanwhile, Herms98 speculates that Hit might get up to 0.5 seconds in Time-skipping technique.
