‘Dragon Ball Super’ chapter 63 release date, leaks, spoilers: Merus’s sacrifice triggers Goku's Ultra Instinct stability

Merus saves the day in “Dragon Ball Super” chapter 63. His heroic actions, no matter how noble, will lead to his grim fate. The only silver lining is that it could be the trigger Goku needs to finally defeat Moro.

‘Dragon Ball Super’ chapter 63 leaked spoilers confirm Merus’s ultimate sacrifice

Before digging into the events in “Dragon Ball Super” chapter 63, fans may recall that Merus was revealed to be an Angel. He helped Goku train for months to master Ultra Instinct, and now he seems to be the only one who can fight Moro. Unfortunately, Angel Laws prohibit him from interfering with these kinds of things. Breaking that sacred rule means the erasure of his existence.

Leaked pages of “Dragon Ball Super” chapter 63 confirms Merus returns to face Moro. The villain will soon realize that Merus has god-like status after easily dodging his attacks. The Angel also manages to wound Moro without exerting much effort and Jaco watches this interaction in disbelief. Jaco does not know yet that Merus is an actual Angel, but he will soon learn this key piece of information.

Meanwhile, Merus evacuated the others so Dende can heal them. First to recover is Goku who scrambles to rejoin Merus after realizing he is about to break the Angel Laws by fighting Moro in “Dragon Ball Super” chapter 63. Goku intends to intervene to prohibit Merus from fighting, but Moro still overpowers Goku even when managed to transform into the UI.

This reportedly upsets Goku, but Merus tells him he “just needs a trigger” to be able to use UI with stability. Once that happens, Merus believes Goku can defeat Moro or anyone who challenges him. In “Dragon Ball Super” chapter 63, Merus also reflects on what it meant to be an Angel. They are not supposed to meddle into the affairs of mortals, so they cannot help forward the cause even of the good people. Merus then says he developed a sense of justice after spending time in Galactic Patrol, implying that it is the reason he is helping them beat Moro even if it means his existence is getting erased in a few moments.

In a series of attacks, Merus manages to destroy all of Moro’s jewels. The Angel also says in “Dragon Ball Super” chapter 63 that Goku “reforms” bad guys, and it is also what the Galactic Patrol does. As Merus destroys the last jewel, the leaks indicate his body will start to turn into dust. Before he is completely eradicated, Merus tells Goku to protect the galaxy that he learned to love.

The end panel of “Dragon Ball Super” chapter 63 shows Goku filled with rage. Merus’s eradication, albeit tragic, could be the trigger that Goku needs to tap on the full potential of Ultra Instinct in future chapters.
