"Dragon Ball Super" is in the middle of a week-long hiatus but will be back this Sunday for another episode. Fortunately for fans, as the wait goes, new details about the upcoming episodes emerge.

The titles of the next three installments have been revealed. "Dragon Ball Super" episode 55 is "Hey, I Wanna Meet Son Goku. A Summons from the Omni-King!"

In the previous episode, the Omni-King also known as Zeno paid a visit to Beerus and Whis urging them to bring Goku to him for reasons he did not divulge.

It is believed that this has something to do with stopping the evil of Goku Black in the future. Rumor has it that Zeno will send Goku as well as Future Trunks and Vegeta, who have been training for their clash with Goku's evil twin.

Zeno saw first-hand Goku's strength early in "Dragon Ball Super," when he watched him in the Universe 6 and Universe 7 tournament.

He expressed his amusement of the battles, but this time the Omni-King also wants to put Goku in an important mission: to save the future.

It would make sense since in "Dragon Ball Super" episode 56, a rematch between Goku and Goku Black will take place, and with a big surprise as well.

The episode is titled "The Rematch of Goku and Goku Black! Super Saiyan Rose Appears." The villain is reportedly tapping into a new and stronger type of transformation.

Super Saiyan Rose has not been introduced in the "Dragon Ball" universe and it is believed to be the strongest Saiyan transformation there is.

Despite the new kind of strength that Goku Black will summon, Goku will not bend easily. As suggested in the leaked title of "Dragon Ball Super" episode 57, Goku will be in his Super Saiyan Blue form.

It is a mystery how the battle will end, but the greater enigma is who Goku Black really is. Speculations suggest that the bad guy is Zamasu, the Kai apprentice from Universe 10.

This is hinted by the potara earrings that his master Gawasu wears. It is believed that they will acquire them and use them for his plan to destroy mankind.

"Dragon Ball Super" episode 55 will air on Sunday, Aug. 21.
