ok ok i think you guys are missing something here.

if Naruto by himself does Rasengen it will be THE SAME power as 100 of Naruto's clones doing it.

when he splits into shadow clones his strength is divided between them, and one hit - no matter what kills them

which means, <u>100 Narutos doing 100 Rasegens is the power of 1 Naruto doing 1 Rasengen</u>


also, that suit he was wearing on the front cover is him in Dosu style bandages, i guess Kishimoto was missing Dosu.
