Isn't is strange?

[Sasuke-kun!]

Isn't it strange that in episode 16 when kakashi does chidori also known as lightning strike that it doesn't make that annoying bird chirping noise while when sasuke does it, it makes that noise.

maybe cos Sasuke was at a higher speed

yup, good answer by someone who pays attention to what he watches.

[Sasuke-kun!]

But i mean, also, kakashi said that to do chidori, you need to be at a high speed, but in episode 16, he isn&#39;t at a high speed... and by the way, it is not because of the speed, its supposed to have that sound... its called &quot;Chidori: a thousand birds&quot;


maybe it just slipped their minds?

Excactly. (I think )

The chirping sound SHOULD have been there, has anyone checked?
I don&#39;t remember very well, but I also seem to think there was no chirping sound back then.

You don&#39;t need high speed to &quot;Gather Chakra&quot;. Kakashi could not make the chirping noises because he was already close to zabuza.

[Iznogoud]

Would have been weird...
Plus i think it didnt appear in the manga so they didnt bother putting it...(dunno though coz i don&#39;t read the manga)

but then... why is it called chidori: a thousand birds?

[Orion Guardian]

Kakashis only made the first part of the technique while creating the lightings and teh strike itself without gathering lots of speed...Zabuza was immobile so it was not nessecary

[Iznogoud]

Yeah, remember he&#39;s a lazy biotch ^^

[jing]

sasuke&#39;s was chidori.
kakashi only did the gather chakra, n slicing with it part.

[Sasuke-kun!]

.........

I am sure i am annoying but....

kakashi said in episode 16 or 17

&quot; this is my jutsu... lightning strike or edge..&quot;

and he said he taught sasuke his jutso which is chidori...

[jing]

yeah and? kakashi was a lazy whore that didn&#39;t wanna run. just a normal slash coulda killled zabuza anyways, kakashi just wanted some light show, to make him fancy looking.

you don&#39;t like kakashi do you?

[The Kyubi Naruto]

I don&#39;t think it&#39;s that. Afterall if you do the Secondary Lotus and the target is already in the air and you don&#39;t have to kick it there does make lotus a lotus?
So in that case Lee didn&#39;t do secondary lotus he just did something.
Or is the kicking included in the lotus? I don&#39;t think so. (Actually I just don&#39;t remember so )

Chidori is all about gathering the chakra and HITTING the enemy fast speed.
And when the HAND where the CHIDORI is moving fast, the n it will make the chirping sound.

M&#39;kay?

[Orion Guardian]

hmm yes but the time kakashis hand moved was tooo short

[r3n]

kakashi also used it when oro confront him, and it has no chirping sound, so it must be related to moving at high speed.

unless kakashi can control his chakra better so that less energy is wasted in creating the sound and it all goes into creating the ball of electricity

so sasuke is probably jst a noob at it

[Guizmo0]

ok look Lighthing edge is a nickname for chidori so both are the same .. gai said the technique to make chidori work was hightend flesh and that makes a sound of a thousand birds flying at you ... thats why its called chidori

so in other words they just missed it cuz without hightend flesh you dont have chidori ( gai words )

[Assassin]

i beleve the sound is made cuz the chakra is cutting thru the air as the user moves (just like how thunder is created from lightning), and since the &quot;offical&quot; move involves moving at high speed and stabbing ur opponent, it makes a noise, hence its name. when kakashi does it, he&#39;d already pretty close, so theres no sound involved.

[KagexShin]

i asked my brother that same question and he answered &quot;because sasuke is running at a faster speed&quot; i bet i couldnt catch that if my brother werent there lol =D
