Talk:Gaara

Before anyone tries to add it...
I'd just like to note that it Gaara didn't use Magnetism Release in 557. He simply had some of the 4th Kazekage's Gold Dust mixed into the Sand Clone. Skitts (talk) 17:33, September 28, 2011 (UTC)

It is only speculation on both ways. Gaara was born withe the black rings around his eyes, babys whoa re just born dont have insomnia, so gaara may indeed have magnetism release like his father, which may be the reason why he was the only one of the 4th's kids who was compatible for the Shukaku, Maybe Magnetism release is a must for being the Shukaku's Jinchuriki?
 * While it is possible, we just won't know until Kishimoto decides to tell us. I also doubt that it's a requirement to have Magnet Release to be the host but then again...--Cerez365™Hyūga Symbol.svg 11:34, October 10, 2011 (UTC)

When FOURTH KAZEKAGE used GOLD DUST ability dark rings appeared around his eyes that resembled the permanent ones around those of his son. WHO USED MAGNET RELEASE ABILITY ARE DARK RINGS APPEARED AROUND HIS EYES??
 * Every thing Gaara did can be explained by means other than Magnet Release. The Third Kazekage and Toroi, also users from Magnet Release, don't display such rings. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 23:08, October 11, 2011 (UTC)

Chakra Flow
I've always been kind've wondering, aren't all gaara's techniques chakra flow? Should we change this?
 * Not quite. Gaara's control over sand differs a lot from what we've come to know as charkra flow. If simply putting chakra into something constituted chakra flow techniques, all ninjutsu would be chakra flow. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 23:51, October 16, 2011 (UTC)

Wind Release
I think "while transformed" or "with Shukaku's power" should be added to that. He used it only while being partially transformed and never again since then. --Elveonora (talk) 20:26, November 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * While it's true we only saw him using it while transformed, the databook explicitly stated Gaara as the user of Wind Release: Infinite Sand Cloud Great Breakthrough. Plus, we don't do that for tailed beasts. We know Rōshi only uses Lava Release because of the Four-Tails, but there's no annotation in his infobox either.

That's because he himself used it while being partially transformed ... that's why he is listed. Killer B's Ink stemms from Eight-Tails. He is listed as an user because he himself used it with Eigh-Tail's power. By your logic, we should list Naruto as an Fire Release user since in anime Kyubi used fire. But it was Kyubi in control of Naruto's body that used it, not Naruto himself. What I'm trying to say is that Gaara used Wind Release obviously thanks to Shukaku so "Wind Release (with Shukaku sealed) would make me help sleep at night, thanks. --Elveonora (talk) 23:19, November 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * Except there's no reason to suspect Gaara wouldn't also have learnt wind techniques without Shukaku. Both his sister and teacher use wind techniques, after all. There is no proof that Gaara's wind techniques stem from Shukaku. —ShounenSuki (talk 23:30, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

Except he has not used it since fighting against Naruto in part 1. --Elveonora (talk) 23:36, November 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * So? —ShounenSuki (talk 00:00, November 30, 2011 (UTC)

Well, him using it only while being partially transformed and not seen using it after Shukaku's removal ... --Elveonora (talk) 00:06, November 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * Again, so? Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. —ShounenSuki (talk 03:10, November 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * It's worth noting that he hasn't displayed Wind Release before his transformations or after. I will add a line about the unknownity(not a word) of his Wind Release.--TheUltimate3 ~Keeper of Lore~ 04:02, November 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * I don't see a need for that. If we take Rōshi and Gaara's actually verified jinchūriki powers as examples, Gaara still has his Fūton and can use them outside of his Bijū transformations. Juste becasue he doesn't use them doesn't mean he can't. —ShounenSuki (talk 04:24, November 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * That wasn't the meaning of the addition, at least as I put it. Assuming Roshi isn't like the million others who just magically got Lava Release, he got his from his tailed beast. The way I put it, it is unknown if he is just naturally a Wind user, or the affinity originally came from the beast and simply melded to him.--TheUltimate3 ~Keeper of Lore~ 05:04, November 30, 2011 (UTC)
