is it possible

[Junichiro]

i could be wrong, but wasnt kakashi's lightning edge in his right hand. that way a forword thrust would go into the heart of the opponent. is it possible to do moves with other hands or am i just remember. ill go watch that episode again to see kakashi use it.

[kimunist]

i'm not sure what you mean, but i dont think it matters which hand, normally they would use their dominant hand? since it takes a lot of str and endurance to keep the chidori in their hands.

[Krbadass]

lol... posts these days.. no it does not matter what hand you use.

[littlecooldude]

Well it would take someone with a lot of chakra in order to do that. And by that time, they probably have a stronger move.

lol are u serious&#33;? geez are u like 10

[Kakashi-Senpai]

Probably sasuke is left handed.

[RoMuLuu]

Of course it doesn&#39;t matter which hand you use. It&#39;s all about gathering chakra to a single point. Which is surprise, surprise easiest to gather to your left or right hand. Of course it would be logical that they use their stronger hand, but it doesn&#39;t matter in the end.

[Kakashi-Senpai]

Oh yah&#33; One thing. It was said that lighting edge (raikiri) actually known as chidori was name so as it cutted through lightning. Is that true? It sounds totally impossible.

[frog hermit]

what does that even mean &quot;cutting through lighting&quot;?
think about it.

[Hakeem_21]

Gia said that Kakashi cut true lightning with chidori once. It&#39;s anime so anything is possible.

your asking if something is true that you heard happened in an anime... umm yes this is an anime so it could have happened.

[umdiddly]

what kind of retard would stand outside in a middle of a thunderstorm and try to touch lightning to begin with?&#33; what the hell put the idea into his head? .. people just dont go out and say &quot;hey, i feel like touching 1 billion volts of electricity today.&quot;
or do they...

[r3n]

lol u cant &#39;touch&#39; lightning if u got anywhere near where it was about to occur its path would be affected by your body, as you conduct better than air does. and even if kakashi managed to get to the lightning bolt while it was moving without it conduct through him instead, he would nvr be fast enough to catch or even touch it, electricity travels at 2x10^8 metres per second, 2 thirds the speed of light. the only reason you can see lightning is because the flash burns an image onto your retina, the actually transfer of charge between ground and cloud is over in something like a nanosecond (1x10^(-9)seconds), your eye can only take in 30 frames per second... think about it

so no, its not possible, and to even suggest it in the anime would be silly.

[Frank_griffith]

maybe, maybe not.

[boomorman]

sometimes I masturbate with my left hand sometimes I use my right... I guess which ever hand I want to play with my jutsu with...

[DB_Hunter]

Maybe Kakashi was just raising the Chidori up to show everyone during a thuinderstorm and suddenly a lightning bolt appeared and it&#39;s path led it to cross the chidori and it got cut.

[Orion Guardian]

and maybe they just wanted to tell something cool &#39;bput kakashi and his mastermove and so they tell this...

Just like what I was gonna post.
Maybe a bit more complicated than mine though.

But I don&#39;t think that in the anime it&#39;s silly.
You know... people can go underground and do Jutsus and stuff.
So I think that if even Gai believes it , it must be true.
He must&#39;ve seen it.

[ComeComeParadise]

Well see, anyone who has seen Gremlins 2 knows that a gremlin can transform itself into a different form of matter, ie. electricity, lightning. What happened was that a malevolent gremlin made of lightning was trying to assassinate Hokage, and Kakashi had to battle it. He used Chidori, successfully cutting through the lightning gremlin, and earning himself a spot in the history books. Why don&#39;t we analyze the scientific probability of summoning frogs while we&#39;re at it?

[Iznogoud]

I think it&#39;s just a RUMOR but that rumor gave the name to the jutsu...
Don&#39;t you think ?
