Chidori vs. Raikiri

[keepcalmandrasengan]

What is the difference between Kakashi's Raikiri and Sasuke's Chidori?

[Kages]

Raikiri is a stronger form and sharper and quicker and causes more damage. Also Chidori is A- Rank while Lightning Cutter is S-Rank

[Deception..]

Raikiri is basically a more powerful version of Chidori

[Unbiased]

Raikiri has more chakra compression.

[★-Carnage-]

raikiri is kakashi's name for chidori...therefore it is stronger...

[Sage mode Tobi]

Raikiri is much stronger than Chidori

[NidaimeRikudouSennin]

raikiri(lightning blade) is a stronger version of chidori(thosand chirping birds)...... it's a perfected version of it. while chidori is a B-rank assassination jutsu,raikiri is a S-ranked jutsu. chidori appears as a mass of white electric chakra, while raikiri is blue and focused.

[Draphsin]

Chidori is a purely lightning based attack, while raikiri is not only more enhanced, but it contains shape manipulation chakra similar to the rasengan

[Sephiron]

The question becomes in order to make chidori stronger does it need to become Raikiri or could one simply add more chakra without stabilizing or compressing with shape manipulation?

Chakra is constantly being burned when using chidori or raikiri. Pushing out more would increase the range i guess. But the purpose is to be sharp and pinpoint so it kinda defeats the purpose.
