I'm trying to say that Gaara uses Magnet Release to control sand. Seelentau wrote: What I meant is that magnetite sand (or black sand) is called satetsu in Japanese. Magnetite in Japanese is "jitekko (磁鉄鉱)", Iron Sand in Japanese is called "satetsu (砂鉄)", and Black Sand in Japanese is called "kurosuna (黒砂)". Plus, if they are the same thing, why do they have separate pages on Wikipedia? Magnetite: https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%A3%81%E9%89%84%E9%89%B1 Iron Sand: https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%A0%82%E9%89%84 Black Sand: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_sand Seelentau wrote: If you want Gaara to have Magnet Release, it's okay. I'm not saying that I want him to have it, I don't even care if he has it or not, I'm just saying that it makes sense.
