This is a response to the other thread about wether Madara's lighting is faster than Kirin.


Instead of debating in circles, let me just ask a question.


Which one produces a plot hole?


Option 1: Madara's lighting is faster.

Option 2: Madara's lighting is slower.


Which one and why?

Madara's Lightning is a hella of lot Slower than Kirin.
If anything, Madara's Lightning travels slower than Chidori Sharp Spear.

If it were faster than Kirin, would we get a plot hole?

Yes, Karin is nature lightning controlled with Chakra while Madara uses Yin and chakra to produce lightning.

Why would gods be reserved the slower techniques? That is a plot hole.


Nothing in the manga directly says if Chakra is faster or Yin/Yang is faster. So we, the readers, have to decide what makes sense.

Lightning travels at the speed of light. That's why it's called lightning.

Kirin is an actual lightning strike made of natural energy (Senjustu)

And Sage Art: Storm Release Light Fang as it implies right in the title is senjutu enhanced storm technique (The same thing sasuke created in order to call down kirin.)

They were conjured differently but,they do travel at the same speed.

Why else would sasuke use his space time tech if he didn't have too ?

Kirin is true, natural lightning. It's one of the fastest jutsu in the series.

they are both lightning so, why would one be slower than the other?
