But chidori is good for a quick kill.
When Jiraya demonstrated rasengan for the first time to Naruto, Jiraya just stun the guy.
If Chidori was use instead of rasengan, the guy should be dead on the spot.
I don't know if this point has been already posted.
If you payed attention, you would have distinctly heard that Jiraya had held back alot so that the man wouldnt die. If he used even half the power the man would be dead, had he used 100% of his power I bet the man would explode!
First of all Im not saying that chidori is more powerfull than rasengan.
I said it is good for a quick kill.
Unlike chidori, you dont get rasengan at full power. Which could put you on a unfavorable position.
A good example of this is when Naruto hit Kabuto with rasengan. When Kabuto got hit by rasengan for the first time, the power of rasengan is still weak. Because the power of rasengan is still weak, Kabuto manage to move his hand and stop the flow of chakra to Naruto's heart.
If chidori was use instead of rasengan, Kabuto may not have been able to move his hand.
