Naruto Shippuden Episode 474
(Viz Media)A big fight is expected to start in episode 475 of 'Naruto Shippuden'The "Naruto Shippuden" anime is nearing its end, and it is giving fans some memorable moments to remember it by in the most recent episode and in the one set to arrive soon.
Also, since Naruto and Sasuke will be the ones fighting, fans can expect Sakura to be prominently involved in that encounter. The three of them have been among the most notable characters featured throughout the entirety of the series, and perhaps it's fitting that the last few episodes will circle back around to them.
Unfortunately, the celebration was only short-lived as the series revealed the loss of another character. Madara Uchiha met his demise in "Naruto Shippuden" episode 474. In the said chapter, Hashirama Senju proposed a treaty to Madara Uchiha which allegedly caused his death, after losing the tailed beast and evil statue.
Despite the episode's emotional plot, some fans still expressed their dismay particularly with the "poor visual quality". Some fans even claim that they have dislodged "Naruto Shippuden" as their favorite anime due to poor quality of production.
Meanwhile, fans are now anticipating episode 475 entitled " The Final Valley" as it is reportedly to be the last instalment of the hit anime series. Reports claim that fans can witness the epic battle between Naruto and Sasuke in the next episode. The violent fight between the two will tear off each other's arms just like in the manga series. Will it be the end of an epic anime series? Fans will have to wait and see until episode 475.
Although the bulk of the episode is relatively light on movement, the first few minutes contain some of the best animation we've seen in months. The sequence showcasing the Six Paths Planetary Construction expertly illustrates the world-shaking power of this technique. The Root Time-Space coming apart at the seams as Kaguya is forcefully sealed away conveys a genuine sense of peril, effectively making Naruto and Sakura's cartoonish reactions all the more believable. This is about as good as the show is capable of looking, so if you're in the mood for eye candy, prepare to eat your fill.
After a seemingly endless string of strangely placed filler episodes and obvious ploys for time, it's refreshing to see some honest-to-goodness progress made in the actual plot. Flashbacks are blessedly brief, the art is consistently superb throughout, and the Fourth Shinobi World War has officially come to an end. Since this conflict began over 200 episodes ago, episode 474 essentially marks the end of an era.
"Naruto Shippuden" episode 473, which aired on Aug. 25, Thursday, saw Obito reunited with Rin in the Afterlife, where the latter informing him that she was always watching over him. However, Obito requested Rin to wait a little longer, noting that he needed to help Kakashi in the ongoing intense battle.
Early "Naruto Shippuden" episode 474 spoilers are now out in Manga Reader. It is said that the penultimate episode will start with Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki earnestly expressing gratitude toward the Team 7 for saving the world.
Dubbed "Congratulations," the next episode will follow the Sage commending Kakashi for leading the team in sealing away Kaguya. Though he denies his role, offering credit to his students, Hagoromo still applauds him as a mentor and as a friend to Obito.
A large chunk of the original stories in the Naruto series involved young students learning the skills they would need to be successful shinobi, including the endlessly quotable Naruto Uzumaki, but NarutoShippuden is where the stakes are raised. Most episodes involve life-or-death fights, and those stakes, not knowing if a beloved character would make it out alive, are part of what keeps the audience invested in the story. In addition to this, characters learn more, grow more, and have much more intricate fights in Naruto Shippuden. The best episodes of the series truly reflect the emotional growth of the main characters as well as showcase some of the coolest fighting in the franchise.
When Pain came to Konoha, it created a memorable arc. Not only did the series seemingly lose Kakashi, but Naruto appeared to be bested by a dangerous enemy. In this episode, Pain and Naruto come to something of a standstill as the former explains his motivations. While most of the episode in the long-running Naruto arc focuses on the talk between Naruto and Pain, other characters aren't completely abandoned. Shikamaru Nara and Inoichi Yamanaka have the B plot of the episode as they track down the real Pain while his Six Paths are otherwise occupied. Despite the episodes that feature mostly slow speeches, this one keeps the audience on the edge of their seat.
Because Naruto spent the bulk of his childhood being ostracized by his village and constantly having to prove himself as more than the nine-tailed fox inside of him, this episode could have acted as his happy ending. It lands among the best Naruto Shippuden episodes solely because Naruto is finally seen by the village the way he always wished: respected and as a hero. Naruto isn't just welcomed back to the village after he defeats Pain, he's carried around and cheered. It's a turning point for the way he was treated by others in the franchise.
Fans of Naruto fight sequences were in for a treat with the arc surrounding Pain. This episode is one of the best of Naruto Shippuden since it isn't just Naruto throwing whatever he has at an enemy or talking him to death, he actually gets to strategize a little. The episode is also a peek into how Naruto's mind works as he battles Pain and realizes just which of the Paths of Pain he needs to take out first. Even though he couldn't sustain Sage Mode throughout the episode, fans can't completely count him out.
This episode goes a long way toward making Itachi a fan favorite. Sasuke, after all, ends up defecting from Konoha and wanting revenge against the village he thinks betrayed his brother. This episode reveals the truth to Sasuke, however, that Itachi was protecting the village and his little brother all along. Itachi saying goodbye to his brother is heartbreaking for Sasuke, but it provides a big leap forward in the story for the audience and allows Itachi's character arc in Naruto to be better understood. Knowing the truth allows Sasuke to move on.
Flashback episodes became a big part of the Naruto franchise as it continued. Some of them clarified story ideas, while others were filler episodes meant to flesh out little-known characters. One of the best Naruto Shippuden episodes gives fans a look at just what happened the night Naruto was born. Focused on Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze's point of view during the night, the episode shows him getting Naruto to safety just after his birth and then battling a mysterious masked stranger. The audience knows that the masked stranger was Tobi, but Minato didn't, adding to the tension of the episode as he fights to save the village from someone who could control the nine-tailed fox.
Being dead doesn't stop Madara Uchiha from being stronger than nearly everyone else in the series. This episode allows fans to see just what he can do. Right in the middle of the Fourth Shinobi World War, a reanimated Madara Uchiha takes on the Fourth Division himself, and it cements Madara as one of the most powerful Naruto characters. Naruto doesn't have enough chakra left at this point in the fight to use the nine-tailed fox to fight him, so this means dozens of other shinobi go up against Madara instead - and lose. The fighting is intense and impressive to watch.
According to the spoilers posted in Manga Reader, the penultimate episode of "Naruto Shippuden" titled "Congratulations" will begin with Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki's gesture of extending his appreciation towards Team 7 for saving the world against his manipulative matriarch.
Yet according to a report from Christian Post, fans of the anime series were concerned about the poor quality of the manga's animation since it affects the whole story. Even the most definitive scenes of the episodes are reportedly drawn poorly, which distracts the viewers from enjoying the episodes. The report claimed that the avid followers of the series want to see improvements in the animation since the story is about to end. 041b061a72
