A proof that Raikiri >> Chidori

[Takos]

Most of you probably know this, but there are still some that think Chidori and Raikiri are the same...

They think so because of Guy's statement:

However, with everything else implying that these are not the same and that Raikiri is much stronger, Guy either did not know everything or just meant that Raikiri is just more powerful Chidori (as evidenced by Kakashi cutting the lightning with it).

Now, what is there to show that Raikiri is MUCH more powerful than Chidori?

1. Databook - Raikiri is S-ranked while Chidori is only A-ranked.
2. Manga - Sasuke himself claimed that Chidori is not the same as Raikiri:

3. Logic - Rasengan was claimed to be more powerful than Chidori (and shown to be more powerful than Chidori during Naruto VS Sasuke on hospital rooftop). Kakashi CAN USE Rasengan. The question: Why should Kakashi use a less powerful Raikiri (it would be less powerful than Rasengan if it was the same as Chidori) if he could use a stronger Rasengan in its place?
Obvious answer is - because Kakashi can use Raikiri, which is much more powerful than both base Rasengan and Chidori.


Just wanted to make this clear. Cheers. :ice:

Did you really take time out of your life to do this?

this is like: Proof that Hiruzen is the strongest Kage!

*views thread*: sees 1 single statement from Kabuto and one from iruka. Nothing about techs and a good comparison.

Fanboys then flame.

Sigh. OT: They are no different bro.

Kakashi tought raikiri to Sasuke, he called it chidori.

so would you now say that Raikiri ?> Kirin? :|

Nice one letting the people who didn't know know.

 

[edo x edo]

You're wrong... the roof top fight didn't show rasengan to be stronger than chidori, it only showed two ways of delivering the energy

If Sasuke has a chance to cut a bolt of lightning he will do it. The difference comes from the name. Nothing more special. If Sasuke and Kakashi had the chance to hit each other, the result will be the same for both of them. Chidori=Raikiri, /thread

Correct.

No hes not wrong cause if that was the case why was Sasuke so astonished when he saw the other side of the barrel and wanted to get stronger after seeing it.

Mind referring to any of the arguments I provided?

Rakiri is stronger than chidori as explained above. *facepalm*

Lol, as you can see, it's not that obvious to everyone. Even with proof posted above, some still say they're the same.

^this
Chidori is a cutting/stabbing jutsu (it evens say so int the manga clip u showed)
resengan is more a powerhit..
or in comparising too real life chidori is like getting stabbed/cut with a sword and rasengan is like geting hit with a sledgehammer.. both can kill u but were chidori is more a piercing attack, rasengan is more full power hit..

If it wasn't more powerful than Chidori, then Sasuke wouldn't have gone mad after seeing its power.
It was also stated to be better by Jirayia.

Exactly.

 

[the truth]

i disagree its the same jutsu.

Exactly.

didtn he just say that too sell the jutsu too naruto because naruto wanted to learn Chidori?! i dont think he had been interrested if he had said" Ill teach u a jutsu wich is just as strong as the chidori"

 

[xMadara]

i disagree its the same jutsu.

Even thought the manga KISHIMOTO wrote says Rakiri is stronger. *facepalm yet again*

because he's a douche who only sees the flashy lights and explosions and does not see the most important things...

Chidori concentrates all the energy in one small point
Rasengan delivers the energy in to the target and damages a larger area - the water in the tank made the attack seem huge

It's like the diferens between shooting with a full metal jacketed and a hollowpoint...
