Honestly, Naruto's canon is about as solid as wet toilet paper. Countless changes were made for stylistic, budget, or executive reasons, or simply because Kishimoto (or his buddy doing the Boruto manga) wanted things to be a little different.

Though it's only one guy complaining about it, it's not really fair to compare Naruto's best animated scenes to other anime such as OPM. Naruto's pretty much on the lowest bar when it comes to animation quality. The best that the animation crews can pull off is somewhat below the average quality of high-budget anime such as OPM, but when compared to Naruto's own lackluster, slideshow animation, it's freakin' amazing.

Regarding the final Rasengan/Chidori clash, I'm pretty sure Naruto matched his former with Sasuke's latter simply by having a lot more chakra put into it. I mean, Kurama can make a gigantic Bijuudama even when depleted of chakra and relying solely on his own chakra flesh.
