neither is stronger. they intensity of both jutsu can be fluctuated at will by the user. (so go kiss your mother and go to bed(sasuke hater)). Plus he didn't invent it, the technique has been passed down in the land of lighting like turkey at thanksgiven.
They're both based on the same principle. The only difference is that the Raikiri is a stronger version. Other than that there is no difference.so, when kakashi does it, its called lightning blade and when sasuke does it its called chidori. chidori in my opinion sounds alot cooler but back to the point, whats the difference? why the different names? kakashi made it and taught sasuke so why is it that they have different names? this may have been asked before and im sorry bout that but still, what do you think?
^^ ThisRaikiri > Chidori
we are not comparing Sasuke's Chidori vs Kakashi's Raikiri.
Wrong.there the same names but one is in eng and one is in jap
Chidori is a weaker form of Raikiri. Kakashi developed Chidori at a young age and worked on it until it became strong enough to cut through a bolt of lightning. Raikiri is also more taxing when it comes to Chakra than the Chidori. Chidori is an A-Rank lightning element technique whereas the Raikiri is an S-Rank lightning technique, and is more powerful and more draining than the Chidori. Kakashi can use shadow clones in combination with Raikiri to make Lightning Chain. If you pay close attention to the differences, Raikiri appears as more of a blade than it does a ball of lightning, the sound and colour also more concentrated. The Chidori appears as a simple mass of lightning in one's hand that is used like the Rasengan.so, when kakashi does it, its called lightning blade and when sasuke does it its called chidori. chidori in my opinion sounds alot cooler but back to the point, whats the difference? why the different names? kakashi made it and taught sasuke so why is it that they have different names? this may have been asked before and im sorry bout that but still, what do you think?
