Nope it noticeably lacks the 3rd component: power. It also seems to me that rather than Naruto, who added wind release to the Rasengan, Boruto created a wind:style rasengan from the ground up. I'm actually quite happy with it, because i've wondered for ages whether shuffling the steps around wouldn't be far easier and it seems it does.

Naruto's steps: Concentration, rotation, power, element. It seems that Boruto used the following steps: Concentration, element, rotation.

Lorenzo VonMT wrote: The only kage level technique you mentioned was 8 gates and maybe rasengan. Gaara was only kage level when he turned into shukaku, which is reasonable because any jinchuriki would be kage level as their tailed beast. Naruto summoning Gamabunta was definitely kage-level at that time. Don't forget the power inflation after the time skip, when we went from "fighting on a roof for an hour or so is Kage-level" to "nuking a city is kage-level". Gaara's techniques were definitely above some very powerful Jonin. Kakashisologod wrote: Vanishing rasengan and RS arent comparable in any way. More notably, Vanishing Rasengan isn't a proper rasengan, so it's not the Kage-level technique that Rasenshuriken is nor the high-jonin technique that the Wind Style Rasengan is.
