‘Dragon Ball Super' Episode 86 Spoilers: Goku And Android 17 Finally Meet; Galactic Poachers Disturbing The Peace?

The latest episode of “Dragon Ball Super” left off with a preview that features Android 17. This is the highly awaited appearance of the said character in the Universe Survival Arc. With the new episode airing this week, new details were released.

Android 17 Finally Returns

“Dragon Ball Super” Episode 86 will finally feature the anticipated meeting between two strong characters in the said anime series. Apparently, this will be the first time Goku meets Android 17, who is Android 18’s twin brother. They are both aware of each other’s existence by knowing each other’s name but they never had the chance to meet in person. Android 17 eventually joins the Tournament of Power because he felt like it was going to be fun and also because it was Goku who personally scouted him.

As revealed in the preview of “Dragon Ball Super” Episode 86, Android 17 has turned into a park ranger at an animal reserve and he has clearly grown into a calm and collected person, which is entirely opposite of how he used to be. Android 17’s top-notch skills are also revealed as he dodged bullets by simply parrying them with his wrists and taking down the bulky poachers with ease, indicating how much stronger he has grown. Creator of the “Dragon Ball” series, Akira Toriyama has already confirmed that Android 17 will show great potential in the Universe Survival Arc.

Android 17 Catches Up To Goku’s Power?

Android 17’s improvement in power was teased in last week’s preview as he trades blows with Goku. Somehow fans are surprised that Android 17 was able to fight on even grounds with Goku, who was already in his advanced Super Saiyan Blue form. However, it seems like the showdown in "Dragon Ball Super" Episode 86 is only a simple spar to prove whether or not Android 17 should be in the Tournament of Power. It did not necessarily reveal the true powers of the two fighters since Goku can finally control his strength even in his Super Saiyan Blue form and Android 17 seems to manage as well, as hinted in his new calm and casual demeanor.

Also in the preview of “Dragon Ball Super” Episode 86, an alien spaceship was briefly shown that seems to have disturbed the peace at the animal reserve as well as the fight between Goku and Android 17. There is still no hint yet why there are poachers showing up all of a sudden. However, there is a possibility that it could either be the gods of destruction finally act on their plan to destroy Universe 7 or that there's a new side story coming up before the Tournament of Power finally commences.
