hellstab and raikiri

[Meowazziel]

Feels more or less the same to me.
What is the difference?

Raikiri is nature and shape manipulation.
Hellstab as well right?

Raikiri collects chakra into the hand/arm and becomes a sword due to the speed you move at.

Hellstab concentrates chakra on the fingers.
The intensity, size and strength of the technique can be proportionally increased by reducing the number of fingers involved.

So basically its:
Raikiri is hand/arm.
Hellstab is fingers.

?

For Raikiri, Sharingan is needed for precise hit.

I was somewhat disappointed in the 3rd Raikage because I was thinking the same thing*sigh* They could have at least made the hand blade larger or something its practicly the same fKing jutsu!! -_____-

I guess they have similar shrength but if asked to choose I would say hell stab because Raikage was able to harm himself with it and he was a beast.

is it i think kakashi uses it without sharingan

true.
raikiri is more depenable on speed than hellstab and more subjectable to a counter (which sharingan can solve by noticing the counter).

the difference between both lightning jutsu are still very minor though.

Honestly I don't see the difference. It's the same jutsu. It's just one uses the hand and the other one his fingers. Either way, it's still the same jutsu

When Kakashi use it without sharingan, his attack missed.
When Kakashi use it with sharingan, his attack hit.

Hellstab is better then raikiri, u can charge its power by adding or reducing ur finger.
