Excuse me for having to clarify, Every jutsu meant to physically harm someone else. Is that better?

Rasengan has yet to kill an opponent. Even when it was used with killing intent.but that's a bad example.

Water Dragon and vortex have yet to kill their opponents. Despite killing intent.

Same for fang over fang, most hyuga tech's, head Hunter, etc etc etc.

You showed you're ignorance by implying assassination meant stealthy, gtfo.

I never argued Chidori was the best or even an ideal assassination tech, but the fact that it is designed and used as one by real world definition.

Get you're handicapped arse outta here, lmao.

Was it stealthy when Booth blew Lincoln head off with a pistol? Maybe look up the definition of a word before you try and make another failure arguement.

So you mad.

So the OP is now altering the mean of assassination to suit his own means? Wow.

You clearly didn't read the OP and just glanced at the title. Keep proving my point.

i read it and it basically proves one thing why use rasenagan,chidori or any other techs to kill just use a kunai.

Agreed,real assassins used to kill targets in broad daylight before slipping into the crowd.

Real assassinations are done in daylight. Then the killer uses the subsequent pandemonium to get away.

Each of those justsus would have killed Rin, so whats the difference? And Hyugas' taijusts is Much better, allowing to kill someone in one stroke as apposed to summoning an orchestra of 1000 birds chirping before you hit your target.

LOL, are you comparing an assassination from a time before suppressors were even invented? Genius point, LMFAO.

Not only that, at no point in time have I gone against the definition of assassination. You, however, have spouted at the mouth without reading this thread and are completely off target about the meat and potatoes of this conversation and the very SCAFFOLDING of this thread. You only continue to weaken your position. Gtfo my thread.

Dumb thread is a dumb thread. The charge time for chidori isn't anywhere near as great as it is when you first use it.(kakashi and sasuke are great examples) and the "noise" isn't as loud as people think it is-it's hyperbole. chidori is excellent for assassinations as Kakashi showed us in the ANBU arc. The kakuzu example is another assassination.(he caught kakuzu from behind and would have killed him if not for him immortality.)

Wtf are you talking about?

How about we send you into a base with a shotgun that illuminates the area every time you fire and amidst enemy troops and tell you to assassinate a guarded political figure. I'm speaking within the context of assassination missions which is embedded in the legal term of the word.

Use your head and look at the poll options for God's sake.

It's only a useful assassination technique when used together with the Sharingan. This allows him to perceive a possible counterattack while travelling at high speeds.

You already defeat your own post, it wasn't Sasuke's first time using Chidori in the Gaara fight. He had trained with it with Kakashi and we saw the boulder he used it on. You're just making shit up.

When you have a tactical advantage and charge from a blindspot on a singular target, Chidori is a good choice. But on a mission to assassinate a political figure or someone prominent, who would have guards or knows how to defend themself, Chidori would only serve to alert everyone on your presence.

How can I make this any clearer?

I doubt it. Considering she's a medic and all. And seeing how kakazu, edo zabuza, etc didn't hear anything before they got stabbed(almost in zabuza's case haku protected him) leads me to believe he activates it the moment before he strikes, after all handseals are no longer necessary.

And according to guy 1000 chirping birds is only heard after the user hits a certain speed, most likely due to the Doppler effect.

When you have a tactical advantage and charge from a blindspot in a 1 on 1 fight, Chidori is a good choice. But on a mission to assassinate a political figure or someone prominent, who would have guards or knows how to defend themself, Chidori would only serve to alert everyone on your presence.

irrelevant, he was still a novice at using the technique. The fact is that in the Gaara fight if you read it again, Sasuke had to actually use handseals to use the chidori. Right now, current sasuke(and kakashi) can use chidori/raikiri without using any handseals and the charge time is considerably less. The reason why chdiroi/raikiri is better than just a kunai is that it's a lot harder to defend yourself from the chidori. Btw, attacking someone from behind while they are distracted from their teammates/other enemies IS an assassination

And none of those were stealth missions, they were direct combat type situations. Read the OP.

Take notice at the Kakuzu one. Kakuzu did not know Kakashi was behind when he got hit by Raikiri. So it can be used as a assassination technique.

Chidori an assassination technique? Wtf?

Yes Chidori is indeed an assassination tech my child. What are you wtfing???

I was just thinking, how did the Chidori get to be classified as an assassination technique

Because it was most likely developed to kill a target in a surprise attack, doesn't the extreme speed imply that? And no it doesn't need to be stealthy it can be as loud as it wants just like the pistol Booth used.

The move has stopping power, but it's a terrible choice if you are actually try to take down a target effectively from the shadows for obvious reasons

That may be true, but that doesn't change the fact that it is an assassination tech, stealth is not a prerequisite for assassination.

Chidori, as is indicated by it's namesake, is a a very loud technique that sounds like the chirping of a thousand birds. Not only that, there's a large ass flashing blue light that accompanies said noise. You would essentially make yourself a giant beacon for the enemy.

This is true, yet irrelevant.

How would you infiltrate an enemy stronghold or ambush a guard squadron with that as your jutsu of choice for taking lives silently?

It is used to assassinate the prime target to ensure efficiency, for guards obviously stealth will be used depending on the infiltrator.

The target would be alerted immediately once it's fired up and would take cover or call his guards.

If only he had the time see as soon as he even realizes whats happening he would already be dead as it's extremely fast and powerful.

It just seems like the worst possible choice for an assassination jutsu.

Not the best not the worst, this is assassination we are talking about, not stealth.

I have already read the thread, and it's just as stupid as you are(and that's being nice). Kakashi has used his raikiri in the ANBU for countless assassinations. Assassination DOES NOT have to be stealthy.(which is something you can't get into your thick skull.) Even then, the noise the chidori makes is grossly exaggerated. It's far better than a kunai and a sword because even if you do notice the attack, it's a lot harder to defend yourself from it.
