Who's Gaara?

Question

I saw him in a pic. But is he a good guy or a bad one? His head reads "love" I think. Why if every time I see him he kills people with sand? How could he control sand? I don't understand.

Answer 1

He's from Naruto. He was a bad guy but then turns good. He controls sand by using charka. Charka is something that is used to make techniques for ninjas

Answer 2

Gaara is a fictional character From Naruto. He controls sand because of the curse put on him as a child. He is a bijuu, meaning a demon resides within his body. The only way the demon can gain control of the body is if Gaara is asleep. Gaara starts out evil, but realizes the flaw in his wayof thinking and becomes good.

He was hated as a child and became cold to everyone. But later on in the series, he learns to love again. And really, there's no such thing as a good guy or a bad guy. Everyone's good and bad.

Answer 9

Gaara is known as "Gaara of the Sand" or "Gaara of the Desert". Gaara is the son of the Fourth Kazekage and the brother of Temari and Kankuro, his older siblings. As a child, the One-Tailed Shukaku was sealed within Gaara during birth on the order of his father. This was done with a possession jutsu by one of Sunagakure's elders, a woman named Chiyo. Because a sacrifice was needed, Gaara's mother, Karura, was used. Before she died, Karura cursed Sunagakure, hoping Gaara would avenge her death.

The reason Gaara's own father inflicted such a fate on him was due to the country's feudal lord slowly weakening the village, minimizing their ability to defend themselves. The feudal lord even began offering jobs to other hidden villages rather than his own. Seeing what was happening to his village, the Fourth Kazekage realized that their ninja would have to be of much higher quality than ordinary ninja to compete, and Gaara was to be their ultimate weapon.

His entire village hated and feared him for the awful power of the spirit sealed within his body; his own father, before later realizing that Gaara could be an effective tool, wanted him dead. As a result, Gaara became emotionally withdrawn, all but silent, and consumed with a bitter loathing for everyone but himself. He learned to find pleasure and eventually a reason to live in annihilating the numerous assassins sent to kill him – and by extension, anyone who threatened his existence. His insomnia, forced upon him by the fact that the demon inside him would eat away at his personality if he were to fall asleep, made Gaara further unstable.

Gaara's childhood was somewhat similar to Naruto's, albeit more unfortunate due to his lack of anyone to call a friend. Both were lonely and desired to be liked, loved, and acknowledged as an individual, free of others' prejudices — they are themselves, not the demons they were forced to "contain" — and both were driven into a desperate state. While Naruto consequently developed the misconception that pranks and mischief would bring him the attention (more precisely: recognition) he sought, Gaara came to the conclusion that he could preserve and confirm his own existence by killing any and all who challenged it, securing an extreme form of existentialism as his key personality trait. In the absence of others' acknowledgment, he could compensate by valuing only himself to the exclusion of everyone else. Furthermore, while Naruto eventually had Iruka and Team 7 to acknowledge him, Gaara never had anyone to bond with and did not understand the concept of fighting for anything other than himself until his confrontation with Naruto.

Beforehand, both boys tried to gain positive attention by being cheerful (in Naruto's case, overly so), kind, and caring, and both had little success. On one occasion, Gaara used his powers to retrieve a ball for a group of children playing nearby, but the children ran from him. Not wanting to be alone, Gaara pleaded for the children to stay behind, which his sand acted on by grabbing them. In his anger at their cries for help, Gaara almost kills a few of them, only to be stopped by Yashamaru. Later, Gaara brought medicated ointment to the house of the girl whose wounds were the worst, but she slammed the door in his face, calling him a monster.

Gaara was trained by his father, but raised mainly by his caring uncle, Yashamaru. Being host to Shukaku gave Gaara almost instinctive control over sand. In addition, the sand itself guarded him, making Gaara a near-impossible person to touch. For six years, everyone in the village feared Gaara, with the exception of Yashamaru. For a time, it seemed as if Yashamaru was the only person who cared for Gaara (not unlike the relationship between Naruto and Iruka, though their relationship was more successful). Gaara's attempts to fit in often led to disaster, leading his father to begin ordering assassination attempts. Gaara had become, in the Kazekage's eyes, a failed experiment and too much of a threat to the other villagers to be allowed to live. Eventually, after quite a few failed attempts, the Kazekage ordered Yashamaru to kill him. Gaara mortally wounded the assassin before he knew it was Yashamaru. Saddened by the unfortunate incident, Gaara tried to apologize and ran next to Yashamaru. Yashamaru then revealed to Gaara that he never loved him. In fact, despite trying to love him, Yashamaru always resented Gaara for taking the life of his beloved sister, who was Gaara's mother. Yashamaru also revealed the source of Gaara's name: Ware wo ai suru shura, "a self-loving carnage". Before Yashamaru died, he opened his vest to reveal explosive notes, and gave his final words: "Please die." Gaara survived yet again, protected by the sand.

According to Yashamaru, Gaara's mother had resented the village for using her and her son as a sacrifice and a weapon, respectively, and cursed Gaara for putting her in so much pain. After realizing that nobody loved him, Gaara used his sand to create the kanji on his forehead ("Love") as a symbol of a "demon loving only himself." This is the only time where his sand shield doesn't prevent injury. For the next six years, Gaara would be the target of almost constant assassination attempts, all ordered by his father.

BUT, HOWEVER, GAARA IS THE MOST I LIKE IN NARUTO.
