Dragon Ball Chapter 85 release date

Currently, Gas is the most powerful warrior in Dragon Ball Super, so Vegeta and Goku had to team up against this powerful enemy. Vegeta tried his Ultra Ego form against Gas, but it didn't work. However, the Saiyan Prince is still standing strong, and each attack from Gas is acting as fuel to his body. Goku is helping Vegeta in the fight, but Gas doesn't seem to have a weakness, thanks to his wish to become the strongest warrior in the universe. Nevertheless, both Saiyans are ready to give one last shot at defeating Gas, and fans expect to see the fight's conclusion in Chapter 85 of the series.

Chapter 85 of Dragon Ball Super is scheduled to release worldwide on Monday, June 20th, 2022, at 8 AM PDT (Pacific Timing). Since Viz Media and Manga Plus follow a simultaneous release pattern, the chapter's release time will vary depending on your region. So, here is the chapter's exact release time for these regions:

  • Pacific Time: 8:00 AM PST on June 20th
  • Central Time: 10:00 AM CST on June 20th
  • Eastern Time: 11:00 AM EST on June 20th
  • British Time: 4:00 PM GMT on June 20th
  • European Timing: 5:00 PM CEST on June 20th
  • Indian Timing: 8:30 PM IST on June 20th
  • More: Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero International Release Date Confirmed

In the previous chapter, we saw Gas overwhelming the Saiyan Duo, but according to some spoilers, things will change for good in Chapter 85 of Dragon Ball Super. Apparently, Vegeta will face Gas alone in his Ultra Ego form to give Goku some time to come up with a strategy. Each punch or kick makes Vegeta stronger, so Gas tries to kill the Saiyan prince without giving his body the required time to absorb his attacks.

Finally, Gas' attacks force Vegeta to get back to his base form, but fortunately, Goku arrives to save his friend. At this point, Goku realizes that his incomplete Ultra Instinct form works best against Gas. The Ultra Instinct Sign transformation allows Goku to use his emotions in the fight, and surprisingly, this strategy works against Gas. After a long battle, Goku is finally able to dominate Gas with his powers, but his UI form won't last for long. So, Goku has to end this fight before Gas can find a way to turn the situation in his favor.

Granolah the Survivor saga is a revenge-driven story of the shonen series about Granolah, the lone survivor of the Cerealian race whose mission is to kill Frieza and avenge the extermination of his race. Goku and Vegeta realize what Saiyan pride is about after seeing Bardock's memory of his battle with Gas in Planet Cerael forty years ago. With Granolah down, it's up to the two Saiyans to take Gas of the Heeter Force down, but will Ultra Instinct Goku and Ultra Ego Vegeta be powerful enough to take him down?

In the previous chapter of Dragon Ball Super, titled Pride of the Warrior Race, Goku and Vegeta unleash their most powerful transformations yet in order to stand a chance against Gas. Ultra Instinct Goku and Ultra Ego Vegeta team-up for the first time, giving everything they got to defeat Gas, but the Strongest Warrior in the Universe is able to defend himself against the Saiyan's powerful attacks.

In the final scene of Chapter 84, Vegeta punches Gas hard in his face. Gas wonders what kind of technique he's using and how he is able to move despite his injuries.

Vegeta says that the damage he inflicted on him is like his fuel, and that in other words, he's getting stronger.

Chapter 84's end note says: "It is neither revenge nor atonement. Just with the deisre to win, Vegeta stands!"

On June 13, the official Dragon Ball website released the first preview for Chapter 85, which is titled To Each His Own Answer. As you can see below, the overpowered Gas continues to beat up Vegeta in what appears to be a one-sided battle, but will the Saiyan Prince's Ultra Ego form continue to build strength as he takes more damage?

Twitter user @DBSChronicles shared an English translation of the first draft pages for Chapter 85:

Major spoilers about the entire chapter have been leaked, revealing that Goku will save Vegeta's life by using a shield. He begins to fight Gas, and uses his Ultra Instinct - Sign form (black hair) instead of the mastered form (silver hair), and Goku says that he figured out the best form to use while fighting Gas.

The villain asks him why he transformed this way because he thinks that silver is the strongest, and Goku replies that the perfected Ultra Instinct form requires a calm mind, but his current form allows him to use it with his emotions "as they are".

Goku is able to gain advantage in the battle vs. Gas, but after the Heeters get concerned about Gas losing, Elec reminds Gas of his purpose, and tells him to unlock his full power. Goku sees a huge outburst of power behind Elec, and it looks like Gas has transformed into his most powerful state: old and wrinkly.
