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. [[User:Skitts|Skitts]] ([[User talk:Skitts|talk]]) 17:33, September 28, 2011 (UTC)

I resently uploaded this pic: [[http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/File:Gaara_part_2_720p.png]].

== part 2 image ==
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? {{unsigned|72.66.90.246}}

What do you think about [[:File:Gaara Shippuden 256.png|this image]] for Gaara's infobox? It is more recent, and it is the way he currently looks,besides that, his kanji is more visible. I'm new to this wiki (hence the hopeful wish to do some changes on it) so I hope I posted everything in order. :)

I've always been kind've wondering, aren't all gaara's techniques chakra flow? Should we change this? {{unsigned|70.94.202.27}}

His sand manipulation should be listed as a unique trait on his infobox, he retained this ability after having Shakaku removed. Shakaku has it listed as one so should Gaara. ([[User:Kuroiraikou|Kuroiraikou]] ([[User talk:Kuroiraikou|talk]]) 13:25, April 13, 2014 (UTC))
:Not quite. Gaara's control over sand differs a lot from what we've come to know as charkra flow.

::I've seen chakra absorption listed on alot of humans infoboxs.([[User:Kuroiraikou|Kuroiraikou]] ([[User talk:Kuroiraikou|talk]]) 15:26, April 13, 2014 (UTC))
That's because he himself used it while being partially transformed ... that's why he is listed.
 
Killer B's [http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Ink_Creation 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.

@ShounenSuki, I never said Gaara himself can't use Wind Release.
 
Just he never used it outside of beast transformation.
 
He no longer can use [http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Wind_Release:_Infinite_Sand_Cloud_Great_Breakthrough this] since he no longer has an additional mouths all over his body.
 
Like Sasuke is listed as an user of Body Shedding with Orochimaru absorbed, I think Gaara should be listed as partially transformed into Shukaku until he shows this without being transformed.

:Wasn't it specifically said that Sasuke could only use that technique because he had absorbed Orochimaru's soul? Any way, annotating Gaara's use of this technique like that would imply that he can only use it while (partially) transformed, and there's simply nothing that really supports this. I won't mind saying he only used it while partially transformed in the article itself, but actually annotating the infobox listing is too much. —[[User:ShounenSuki|ShounenSuki]] <sup>([[User_talk:ShounenSuki|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/ShounenSuki|contribs]] | [[User:ShounenSuki#Translations|translations]])</sup> 14:07, November 30, 2011 (UTC)
 
 
We have seen him using it only while partially transformed and with the use of the additional mouths.
 
He most likely can't transform into Shukaku anymore and we have not seen him using this or any other Wind technique since, I think that's enough reason.
 
Well, I spoke my mind ... do as you please :)

Guys this is getting ridiculous, we all know that Gaara's sand controlling ability stems from the One-Tailed Tanuki Shukaku, it is clearly a Tailed Beast Skill but Shukaku doesn't have to be a user only Gaara.

That isn't what I asked about :{ , besides Gaara can only use those techniques because of the Shukaku, if it wasn't derived from the Shukaku, then Gaara would be able to used it without having the Shukaku sealed inside of him,he was a jinchuriki of the Shukaku, that was the only thing which grannted him these abilities others can do it causing even the Third Kazekage to create a jutsu to '''imitate''' Shukaku's abilties. We don't know if any other jinchuriki would be able to retain their tailed beast skills after death.
 
 
@Omnibender: Can you please show us the link?
 
 
@cerez365: When you say "Never been listed as tailed beast skill" does that mean that the Databook labels them as such? Roshi was able to use the [[Lava Release: Scorching Stream Rock Technique]] and it's listed as a tailed beast skill, because we clearly know that the Lava Release abilities are from Son Goku. We don't know if what would have happened if any other Jinchuriki like Roshi was revived in the same way as Gaara. Like I said before its clearly known that the Shukaku's style is unique causing the Third Kazekage to create Iron Sand. Ginkaku and Kinkaku were able to use their tailed beast skills even after they were dead.

Wind Release: Drilling Air Bullet is ''not'' a ranked technique. By ranked, we mean having been ranked from E-rank to S-rank, which shows how difficult it is to learn/perform the technique. The ranked sand technique I mentioned is [[Sand Binding Prison]], which is a B-rank technique, according to its entry in the third databook. Tailed beast skill was a category we implemented independently to further categorise techniques. If a technique can be traced back as stemming from a tailed beast, we list it as a tailed beast skill. The reason most of Gaara's sand techniques are not listed as such, as far as I recall, is because of that one B-ranked technique. Having a rank like that has always implied that the technique is learnable/performable by anyone willing to learn. For example, no kekkei genkai technique has ever had a rank, because one doesn't simply learn a kekkei genkai technique.

I dunno. I just think that there's too much unknowns surrounding Gaara especially with the new revelations. It's listed that the manipulation seemingly stems from Shukaku, I think that'll do for now. At least for me.--[[User talk:Cerez365|Cerez<sub>365</sub>™]][[File:Hyūga Symbol.svg|20px]] 14:51, December 27, 2011 (UTC)
 
 
I get what your trying to say but then again Masashi Kishimoto does that sometimes
 
for example he gave [[Water Release: Great Water Arm Technique]] a rank (B if i remember correctly) we all know that it is derived from the Hozuki Clan's secret technique the [[Hydrification Technique]] which we all know is not supposed to be ranked. At the same time Gaara also used the [[Air Sand Protective Wall]] but it wasn't given a rank, nor was any other technique and I'm pretty sure Gaara wasn't slipping into his Version 1 or 2 forms when we saw him. My point is that we should list his abilities as a tailed beast skill the same was done with the [[Water Release: Great Water Arm Technique]], it is given a rank yet still listed as Hiden. As for the people who say that they shouldn't be listed as such because Gaara could use them even when he was revived, it's a ability that no one except a jinchuriki of Shukaku can use, causing The Third or Fourth Kazekage to create Iron Sand to '''imitate''' the abilities of a previous jinchuriki of the One-Tail
 
We don't know if any one like Roshi would retain them even if they were revived like Gaara, Kinkaku and Ginkaku could retain their Nine-Tailed forms even after death, with the help of no seal. All of this point towards the fact that they can indeed be listed as such.(P.s I the guy who started this discussion.) What do you guys say?

:I believe I have asked ShounenSuki or someone about this a while back. If I am to understand it correctly the innate ability to control sand is the Shukaku's power. The shield becoming an automatic shield around Gaara is his mother's love hijacking the Shukaku's power for her own end. All the jutsu Gaara came up with using sand are not technically tailed skills, but work based on a tailed beast skill.
 
:So basically
 
:#Controlling Sand is the power of the One-Tailed Beast
 
:#The sand protecting Gaara is the One-Tailed power hijacked by Gaara's mama
 
:#The jutsu Gaara made up using the sand is not a Tailed Beast skill--'''[[User:TheUltimate3|TheUltimate3]]'''[[User Talk:TheUltimate3| ~Keeper of Lore~ ]] 11:35, December 28, 2011 (UTC)
 
::I agree with you. --[[User:Ilnarutoanime|Ilnarutoanime]] -[[User talk:Ilnarutoanime|Neji]][[User:Ilnarutoanime/Links|Loverr]]- 14:52, December 29, 2011 (UTC)
 
 
That's what I am arguing about, it is the ability of the One-Tailed Shukaku hence a tailed beast skill, I know about the Sand Shield but basically she's '''hijacking'''(who knows how?) it, the Sand shield is an application of the sand abilites of Shukaku though I'll have to think about it. Her love and will consists of only a small amount of Gaara's abilities and Gaara never used techniques except the Sand Shield based on her mother's love. About your argument that its not a tailed beast skill, well as I recall is "A tailed beast skill is a unique ability or trait used by tailed beasts" but if you still don't agree then I guess we should remove Roshi's Lava Release: Scorching Rock Stream Technique and his magma armor from being a tailed beast skill too huh? Roshi used Lava release ninjutsu because of Son Goku the same argument can be made that all of Roshi's lava jutsu are not technically tailed beast skills but based on a tailed beast skill, the ability to mix the Earth and Fire natures and create a new nature, Lava Release. (I don't get your argument if it's based on a tailed beast skill then its a tailed beast skill itself.)

::That Water Release technique wasn't a change over time like you're suggesting, this was a ranked hiden technique, the only exception to hiden techniques not having ranks, from the get-go.

:::Unlike the examples other people gave of inconsistencies in technique ranking and categories, that Water Release technique already had an inconsistency right from the start, as it was called hiden and given a rank at the same time.

@Omnibender: I don't understand what you're saying, are you suggesting this was something different at first and then shifted to something else? That the classification and rank of that [[Sand Binding Prison]] technique was changed over time? If so, can you please where it is said? Gaara used Air Sand protective Wall at the same time, why wasn't it given a rank?

:What I mean is that prior to that technique, none of Gaara's techniques had ever received a rank. Having a rank pretty much means the technique can be taught to anyone willing to learn it. Sure, there have been unranked techniques which look like they can be taught, but not of all them are like that. Gaara's sand techniques being unranked made sense because they derive from something he got from his tailed beast, meaning this isn't something others could potentially learn simply if they decided to learn. When the Third Databook came out, almost all of his techniques had no rank, but this one had. I'm not saying the rank of the technique changed over time, but the ranking profile of Gaara's techniques did, because one of them became ranked.

With the recent releases showing the Jinchuriki with chakra shrouds, should we mention in Gaara's trivia that he is/was the only Jinchuriki not to be seen with a chakra shroud? I mean sure, we've seen him go Full Form, but we've also seen Bee go Full Form but also have seen him with a shroud. I think it may be trivia worthy if anyone else agrees?

These are the only things I found about it on his transformations page:
 
 
"Much like Naruto's fox shaped chakra cloak, the sand is capable of absorbing a wide variety of attacks. However, the defence given to his body still has one weak spot."
 
 
"Gaara's jinchūriki forms are noticeably different from others' in that it's not made of pure chakra, but of sand. It is, however, possible that the forms that Gaara has shown are partial transformations."
 
 
No mention of how he was never seen with the chakra shroud, just that he gets covered in sand not the raw chakra. [[User:SusanooUnleashed|SusanooUnleashed]] ([[User talk:SusanooUnleashed|talk]]) 04:38, December 27, 2011 (UTC)
 
 
Maybe it takes less control for Gaara to use partial transformation and shield/armor of sand than chakra cloaks since the sand is imbued with chakra most of times and for Shukaku's body being from sand.
 
For 8 Tailed Beasts being able to provide chakra cloaks to their host, and one being different would make Shukaku really unique.
 
So I think Shukaku is like other 8, just Gaara can't use chakra cloak or it's not his style.
 
For example now Naruto's has control over Nine-Tail's chakra but we have not seen him doing a partial transformation or going to version 1/version 2 on his own ... it happened only when the Kyubi triggered it.
 
 
So to put it short I see it as lack of control or a preference but don't want to speculate much.

Nooooo no no nooooo. Utterly against this.
 
 
First of all other shinobi have gone underground before without it being labelled as Earth Release- I remember that being said somewhere that it's not impossible. Sai did it when he went to speak with Orochimaru for example. Orochimaru himself did it when spying on Team 7.
 
 
Secondly where Gaara goes underground, it simply looks like him breaking down the surface of the earth into sand and then submerging himself in it and then reappearing. I believe that it was in that very same filler arc that he said he is able to break down earth and mix this with his own to create even more sand.
 
 
Saying that Gaara uses Earth Release is opening a can of worms I don't think we should call down on ourselves.--[[User:Cerez365|Cerez<small>365</small><sup>™</sup>]][[File:Hyūga Symbol.svg|20px]][[User talk:Cerez365|<sup>(talk)</sup>]] 16:09, April 9, 2012 (UTC)

:How exactly is it "clearly meant to be earth release" when I just provided plausible explanation that it's simply sand? There's a lot more to consider where Gaara is concerned that Kurama and just arbitrarily handing out nature transformations to people. Kurama and Gaara aren't the same.
 
:If you check episode 220 you'll see where Gaara says what I stated before as he begins breaking down the earth to form sand.

He made no mention of using Earth Release there. Just simply that he could create sand through that method. During his fight with Kimimaro, Gaara could be said to have done something similar and summoned a huge amount of sand from underground. As far as I know, that was never considered Earth Release, nor were they at a sandy area like in the SWWIV.--[[User:Cerez365|Cerez<small>365</small><sup>™</sup>]][[File:Hyūga Symbol.svg|20px]][[User talk:Cerez365|<sup>(talk)</sup>]] 17:37, April 10, 2012 (UTC)
 
 
I think it is pretty obvious that he didn't use Earth Release. Gaara's chakra is messed up and he doesn't have the strength in this specific moment to use any chakra move that requires to consume a great amount of chakra , that would be need to avoid this attack (by blocking with some sort of sand wall , shield etc.). So he just used the sand there was around him. He dug himself underground of a moment and then shown up. This technique would require a too small amount of chakra , so he used this.

"I believe that it was in that very same filler arc that he said he is able to break down earth and mix this with his own to create even more sand" Quoted from Cerez. I would just like to indicate that it wasn't just that filler arc where this has been mentioned, in his fight with Kimimaro which has been referenced above, Gaara specifically stated that he can break down minerals in the ground to create sand, in particular the hardest minerals in the ground to create the hardest shield, that mini-shukaku thing that Kimimaro failed to bust through. Now while I could go on a tirade about the definition of sand and whether or not Gaara can control any substance of that consistency, all previous notes on his ability do point to this simply being him dodging the attack by reducing the ground beneath him to sand. --[[User:Hawkeye2701|Hawkeye2701]] ([[User talk:Hawkeye2701|talk]]) 17:49, April 10, 2012 (UTC)
 
 
"This technique changes earth into fine sand by channelling chakra into it, allowing the user to dig through it like a mole. This effect goes around the body (not just the hands), making it just large enough for a person to move through. The user can pinpoint where they are, despite being underground, by sensing the magnetic forces. They can also sense what is happening on the surface and use that information to launch a surprise attack on the enemy.[2][3][4] One can also hide deep in the ground, escaping to a depth where the enemy can't reach. It also appears that after digging, the ground can be returned to its original state, leaving no trace of where the user entered the earth.[5]"

Has anyone else noticed that Kankurō is not listed as Gaara's brother in the "Family" section on the side bar of this page? Look closely also at the other members of the family, because I think there were mistakes in the family listings in those, as well. --[[User:ScruffyC|ScruffyC]] ([[User talk:ScruffyC|talk]]) 05:42, September 27, 2012 (UTC)

New part 2 image

I resently uploaded this pic: [[1]]. And I find it better than the current one, since it put a bit more distance to him, so you can see all his hair and sholders. --Kasan94 (talk) 18:21, November 4, 2013 (UTC)

And he dosn't look so sad. --Kasan94 18:45, November 6, 2013 (UTC)
There is no consensus on this change, so please don't make an arbitrary decision to change things. If nobody replies to your message, simply bump it and ask again. If there is still no reply, then people don't see any reason to change the image. Frankly, I prefer the current image over your one because the current one shows his proper mood (which is indeed sad, most of the time) --Speysider Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | Channel 15:49, November 10, 2013 (UTC)

part 2 image

What do you think about this image for Gaara's infobox? It is more recent, and it is the way he currently looks,besides that, his kanji is more visible. I'm new to this wiki (hence the hopeful wish to do some changes on it) so I hope I posted everything in order. :) Vojkffy (talk) 20:16, March 16, 2014 (UTC)

Don't add messages in the middle of other discussions that have long died. Moved your request to the bottom for easier viewing. --Speysider Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | Channel 20:18, March 16, 2014 (UTC)

I don't see why it's necessary to change. There is no significant difference in Gaara between the two images. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 22:42, March 16, 2014 (UTC)

Gaara's sand manipulation

His sand manipulation should be listed as a unique trait on his infobox, he retained this ability after having Shakaku removed. Shakaku has it listed as one so should Gaara. (Kuroiraikou (talk) 13:25, April 13, 2014 (UTC))

This.--Elveonora (talk) 13:37, April 13, 2014 (UTC)
Also listing produce ink on Killer B unique trait as well.(Kuroiraikou (talk) 15:10, April 13, 2014 (UTC))
Point of clarification, the "unique trait" bit in infoboxes was designed strictly for tailed beasts.--TheUltimate3 Allied Shinobi Forces Symbol (talk) 15:12, April 13, 2014 (UTC)
Really? Then why do human characters use it too?--Elveonora (talk) 15:22, April 13, 2014 (UTC)
I've seen chakra absorption listed on alot of humans infoboxs.(Kuroiraikou (talk) 15:26, April 13, 2014 (UTC))
I said "designed strictly". It was for the tailed beasts and their unique abilities exclusive to that tailed beast and their jinchuriki. If memory serves me correctly I think they were there when the ability section in articles were just a list if techniques and no details.
Quite frankly the section is a relic and could probably be removed as is. It's purpose is now being served within the article proper.--TheUltimate3 Allied Shinobi Forces Symbol (talk) 15:34, April 13, 2014 (UTC)
