Dragon Ball Super's new arc, which would feature Future Trunks and the enigmatic enemy known only as Black Goku, is set to begin on June 12. Before the arc begins, however, let us look at some very interesting theories and predictions about that might happen on the hit anime's upcoming episodes, especially those involving Future Trunks.

Future Trunks' return was met with much optimism by fans all over, especially since the character enjoys a lot of popularity among Dragon Ball fans, both old and new. What is particularly interesting with his return is the change in his character design. From what was seen in official images, he would be sporting a new hair color and a new costume.

With the character's hair color being blue, many are speculating that its change from the usual purple is foreshadowing Future Trunks' capability to transform to Super Saiyan Blue. Others, on the other hand, suggest something darker, stating that Future Trunks' hair color was dyed blue intentionally after his mother, who happens to have blue hair too, was killed in the future by Black Goku.

His battle-weariness could be seen in official images of the character too, as it would seem like Trunks is returning to the past as a character that is far more mature than his previous appearances. Many fans were quick to note that his design for the upcoming arc suggests that he passed through a lot of tribulations in the future before finally being able to go back to the past.

Lastly, many are speculating that Future Trunks' would not be returning this time around simply to warn the other characters about what would happen in the future. Considering that Akira Toriyama himself stated that Future Trunks would barely escape with his life due to the destruction being caused by Black Goku, some fans are speculating that he might be traveling to the past to kill Goku, who might be destined to turn evil in the future.

Indeed, these theories are very interesting, and they are quite well-founded too. Hopefully, all these speculations would be addressed once the new arc goes underway in a couple of weeks.
