After the defeat of Princess Kaguya, fans of "Naruto Shippuden" are expecting to see the beginning of the culmination of the anime series in chapters 474 and 475.

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.

While the Sage praises Kakashi for gearing his team towards victory, the master of Team 7 will insist that the victory and praises belongs to his students Naruto Uzumaki, Sakura Haruno, and Sasuke Uchiha.

However, the rejoicing in the penultimate episode appears to be short-lived, after reports claimed that Madara Uchiha dies after Hashirama Senju proposed a treaty.

Chapter 474 is slated to premiere on Thursday, Sept. 1.

On the other hand, Enstarz revealed that the episode 475 titled "Valley of the End" will showcase the final and epic battle between Naruto and Sasuke.

According to reports, the Team 7 comrades will have an epic battle against each other. They will also tear each other's body parts, until their friend and fellow Team 7 member Sakura arrives to stop them.

Will the former close friends really end up killing each other despite all the challenges that they have faced together?

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.

The episode 475 of "Naruto Shippuden" series is expected to be released on Thursday, Sept. 8.
