Talk:Shield of Sand

By the way, doesn't Gaara transform into his Shikaku form in there? Seriously, I think we need to add more information into that about saying that he does transforming phase. --Rasengan888

Doesn't the automatic sand shield have something to do with his mother? 120.145.136.64 (talk) 00:39, September 27, 2010 (UTC) Milkopilko


 * No. Gaara mistook Shukaku for his mother. ~SnapperTo 00:51, September 27, 2010 (UTC)

dodged by high speeds??
this shielf of sand page needs to be updated. this info it has is all pertaining to Part I of Naruto. Saukes chidori?? Lees's speed?? then why cant raikages kick and amaterasu count as sumthing?? plus the gaara's mother's will moves the sand not shukaku. UPDATE PLEASE! someone keeps deleting all the updates.
 * While some of those are valid points the latter about his mother moving the sand was not meant literally but figuratively as her dying will. So it'll not be added until the next chapter where something is revealed that says otherwise.--Cerez365™ Hyūga Symbol.svg 20:55, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * well its obvious that Shukaku isnt controling the sand because it is no longer within Gaara. That answers why his defence is still automatic. Plus the sand shield took the shape of Karura clealry representing that his mother's will is seeped into the sand. The Fourth said it, Yashamaru said it, gaara said so and even Karura said it figuratively. evidence that its is her will. where is the evidence it is shukaku????
 * you're assuming it was automatic. I saw the panel as well and it's simply too early to tell. A dead person, at least in the Naruto series isn't just simply able to pass on their will through words alone. I'd rather we wait for chapter 458 before adding any of that stuff when more should be revealed if in fact it isn't the Shukaku. Which I think would be going against the what we were told in the databook.--Cerez365™ Hyūga Symbol.svg 21:11, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

it is true that its kinda hard to just seep our will into something but i man look at naruto he had itachi powers shoved down his throat...his mother essence was thee as well so was his father maybe the seal that is in gara part of his mother's chakra and or will was there as well.. so effectively Gaara has a sun within him as well being his mother just like Naruto --DragonStyleNaruto (talk) 20:53, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

new picture
i think that the new image should be the one that showed up in the most recent of chapters where his mother image is shown surrounding gaara. it clarifies that it is his mothers wil and love that protects gaara not the one tails survival instinct. --DragonStyleNaruto (talk) 17:25, July 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't think the image has to be changed, though I don't oppose the addition of one showing it taking Karura's form. We do have the slideshow in infoboxes after all. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 20:43, July 20, 2011 (UTC)

would you mind doing it friend? sadly i dont know how..and you got to admit that form is pretty badass--DragonStyleNaruto (talk) 03:00, July 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * There's no raw scans for it yet and there's english text in her face so we'll have to wait a bit.--Cerez365™ Hyūga Symbol.svg 03:22, July 22, 2011 (UTC)

Tailed Beast skill
This has been bothering me for a bit. If I remember correctly, Kishimoto said that Gaara kept the power to move sand at will due to the Shukaku's being apart of him since birth, and those abilities remained after it was removed. Flash forward to now, and apparently it was his mothers love and will that gave Gaara the ability to control sand.

So was this a retcon or what?--TheUltimate3 ~Keeper of Lore~ 03:59, September 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well it was said that it was his mother's love that made the sand move to protect him. Gaara's ability to control sand still seems come from Shukaku, as the Third Kazekage developed the Iron Sand by watching the previous jinchuriki of Shukaku.--Deva 27 04:05, September 2, 2011 (UTC)
