 * Of course not. --_-_-=NejiLoverr26 (Talk-Contribs.-Links) Konohagakure_Symbol.svg 10:23, May 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * This isn't even a technique, it's an equipment with which Gaara can use techniques. This would be more akin to Sai's ink compartments. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 18:36, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

but,it was saying, it use medium (sand) with his chalra to control. so it same way as sai's with his ink. --Jumpjet (talk) 14:29, May 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * This is something Gaara uses to store his sand, it just happens to also be made of sand. It's not a technique, it's a piece of equipment. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 17:52, May 22, 2011 (UTC)

Compressed
Should we put that the sand in the gourd is highly compressed? Because Gaara will use jutsu vastly exceeding the size of the gourd itself from it. I've noticed this several times and it seems too consistent to be an art mistake. Example: Chapter:547, Page:10 Skarrj (talk) 12:07, January 22, 2013 (UTC)
 * Actually no. This is simply you guestimating the amount of sand that should be in his gourd. Gaara's gourd is fairly large, it's not as if he's calling a soda bottle.--Cerez 365 ™Hyūga Symbol.svg(talk) 15:45, January 22, 2013 (UTC)

Gaara's gourd isnt THAT large. That blast of sand he created was much larger than the mass of the gourd and his body combined. Skarrj (talk) 16:22, January 22, 2013 (UTC)
 * Skarrj, I'm really not going to argue with you about the size of Gaara's gourd. This is one of those things based on a reader's perception that doesn't affect the storyline. So no, we can't add that information because while you're saying that the gourd is small, at the same time I could argue that it's fairly large enough to hold all that sand which I doubt he has rolling around in there.--Cerez 365 ™Hyūga Symbol.svg(talk) 16:31, January 22, 2013 (UTC)

Trivia
I'm not trying to be dirty or anything but I read somewhere that the gourd is supposed to resemble a t a n u k I s testicles hanging. Should it b added. Munchvtec (talk) 09:25, February 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * May or may not be true, so no. Ur mind has to be really dirty to even notice any sort of resemblance--Elveonora (talk) 14:31, February 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * Don't recall that ever being suggested anywhere. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 14:51, February 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * Never heard that before either. Besides wouldn't it then resemble any mammals genitals.--Cerez 365 ™Hyūga Symbol.svg(talk) 14:56, February 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * Sadly, I believe I get the reference he is making. According to folklore, Tanuki are well... uh... endowed, if that would be the correct word, and often sling them over their back in a gourd-like fashion. Its a very popular depiction of them over in Japan. Whether or not that is trivia worthy, is up to you guys, but the fact that Gaara wears a gourd on his back while being the Jinchūriki of a large tanuki is certainly no mistake. ~ Ten Tailed Fox Yamagakure Symbol.svg 18:27, February 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * Even if this was true, I do not think it's appropriate to add this to trivia. At all. --Speysider Talk Page 18:33, February 16, 2014 (UTC)
