His mask is probably a strong metal, the fact that it broke the mask is still impressive.
You're comparing Naruto's rasengan that broke probably the strongest compound of metal on earth (just a guess), to Kakashi's raikiri that pierced flesh... great comparison.
But that was a boss move, after that rasengan he was able to tag him out and the seals never goes again, i didn't understand why minato didn't kill him when he was leaving with his hax (kamui) it would have the job done. He should have the 3rd hokage deal with it, he has the Dead Demon Consuming Seal
Sorry but this dosen't answer my question.
The mask protected his face from the full damage... Rasengan and Chidori have to different types of effect on an opponent... Rasengan smashes/crush while Chidori pierce/slice opponents...
