The fight between Naruto and Sasuke that started in "Naruto Shippuden" episode 475 will continue in the upcoming episode 476. However, rumors are rife that the one hour-long episode might be the series' finale.
If rumors are to go by, avid fans of the "Naruto Shippuden" anime series are in for a treat in the upcoming "Naruto Shippuden" episode 476. It is reported that the forthcoming episode will be extra special since it will be an hour long.
An announcement was posted on TV Tokyo official website, stating that the next episode will be a one-hour special broadcast. It is even more exciting for fans since the upcoming episode 476 will continue the epic fight between Naruto and Sasuke that was started in episode 475.
Since this will be the last fight of the series and possibly the best, aficionados should expect explosive scenes in "Naruto Shippuden" episode 476. The two rivals will display their best shot and give all the high-level techniques that they have accumulated and learned from the previous fights.
However, there is a second reason as to why episode 476 will be an hour long. Besides showing the entire fight between Naruto and Sasuke from the beginning to the end, the upcoming episode will reportedly be the series' finale, according to Game N Guide.
The manga series already ended at chapter 700 and so the fans of the anime series are expecting that there will still be a few more episodes to followl. However, Studio Pierrot seemingly opted to pack seven chapters of the manga anime series into just one extra-lengthy episode. For the upcoming "Naruto Shippuden" episode 476, fans should expect it to contain chapters 694 to 700 of the manga series.
The upcoming one hour-long special will be a no miss episode given that it will wrap up "Naruto Shippuden" anime. The series will skip airing in the next few weeks in preparation for the highly anticipated finale.
"Naruto Shippuden" episode 476 is scheduled to air on Sept. 29. Watch the sneak peek below to have a glimpse of what to expect when episode finale finally airs.
