'Dragon Ball Super' episodes 53, 54 spoilers news update: Is Zamasu really Black Goku?

Fans of the anime series "Dragon Ball Super" have even more reasons now to be frantic for the next episode to air Sunday, July 31. Episode 53 was not aired on its usual schedule this week because of some programming issues. Viewers in Japan were disappointed at having missed a very significant episode which could have revealed the identity of Black Goku.

Fuji TV covered a special broadcast, "FNS 24HoursFES," which dealt with an event in schools in Japan. This encroached upon the airing schedule of the anime, so that the show was totally missed. Audiences will have to wait until this Sunday to get their dose of "Dragon Ball Super."

It is anticipated that the upcoming episode 53 of the eagerly followed anime will finally explain the link between Black Goku and Universe 10, as well as with Zamasu. It was largely speculated that Black Goku may really be Zamasu while others believe that confirmation will be found through him. After all, the martial arts master has been found to share the same ki as Black Goku.

The much awaited episode will find Beerus and Whis heading out for Universe 10 along with Goku to find some answers regarding Black Goku's identity. The plan is for Goku to challenge Zamasu to satisfy their suspicions on the shared ki.

Another exciting revelation which is said to be answered in the next episode is the reason for Black Goku's hatred of Saiyans.

"Dragon Ball Super" episode 53 will also have Trunks meeting up with an old foe, No. 18; he finds out she is Kuririn's wife who nearly eradicated the whole of humanity in another dimension.

In the meantime, some information on episode 54 has also been leaked online. According to spoilers, the identity of the true Saiyan heir will be found out. It was pointed out that anyone of the three -- Gohan, Goten, and Trunks -- who have fathers of Saiyan descent could be the inheritor. However, some speculations say that it is none of them. It is said that a new character which will be revealed in episode 54 will be the real Saiyan heir.
