In what episode will Gaara become good? Statistics of the test "Gaara's Girl"

Gaara(Japanese: 我愛羅) is a fictional character in the anime and manga Naruto by Masashi Kishimoto. Kishimoto introduced the character of Gaara as a "quasi-double" of the series' main character, Naruto Uzumaki: both were born under similar circumstances, but developed very differently as individuals while overcoming problems with their upbringings. Initially introduced as an antagonist and rival to Naruto, Gaara became Naruto's soulmate and close friend as the series progressed.

In the anime and manga, Gaara is a ninja associated with the village of Sunagakure, and is the son of its leader, the Fourth Kazekage. While he was still in his mother's womb, his father tried to turn him into a living weapon by sealing the One-Tailed Demon into him, for which Gaara was subsequently outcast among the inhabitants of the Village Hidden in the Sand. In the village everyone was afraid of him; no one wanted to play with him. As a result, he turned into a ruthless killer who killed others without remorse and treated his relatives Kankuro and Temari with contempt. His father, the Fourth Kazekage, ordered the brother of Gaara's late mother to kill him to stop the death of the villagers. But they failed to kill Gaara. Sand protects him everywhere. Gaara did not recognize his guardian, since he was wearing a mask, and killed him. When Gaara took off his mask, he was shocked that the person closest to him was trying to kill him. Gaara's father knew that it would not be possible to kill him, and ordered Gaara's guardian to instill in the child that no one needed him, in order to free the tailed beast Shukaku sealed into him.

In the first part, many ninjas were afraid of him, considering him too strange and scary. During Stage 2 of the exam, Gaara's team had the best result in the entire history of the exam. The jonin judges became interested in him without seeing a single scratch on him, which was practically impossible. In the next round, he wanted to fight Sasuke Uchiha, considering him the strongest among the rest of the shinobi who passed this round. But his fight with Sasuke was interrupted by Orochimaru's plan to attack Konoha. Gaara was seriously injured during the battle and Kankuro and Temari had to take him to a safe place. Sasuke wanted to finish the fight he had started, and followed in the footsteps of Gaara's team. Gaara's condition worsened and Shukaku was able to take possession of him. Sasuke's chakra was running low, and he was also in fear from the realization that in this state Gaara was too much for him. That's why Naruto had to fight Gaara. Naruto summoned boss toad

Your quiet whisper...Tender voice...
Dose, dose, another dose...
“Bright blue eyes...Wheat-colored hair...It's so nice to watch you. Your laughter, your sincere smile. Understanding and support. Friendship...The first true friend. I wonder if you consider me your friend? I think, but you...Probably too, but not like that. You know, they say that sometimes friendship can grow into something more over time. What, you ask? I couldn't define it before. Probably I just couldn’t understand or feel it. I didn’t really know the meaning of this word. But now I understand..."
-Gaara! Gaara! Please wake up! - With eyes widened in horror, a fair-haired girl, dressed in a lilac dress, forcefully shook the pale young man by the shoulders.
-Temari! What's happened? - a young man of about nineteen burst into the room, clutching a glass of cloudy liquid in his hand.
-He took this poison again. Oh Kami-sama, why? – Tears welled up in the girl’s eyes.
- Xo, where does he get it from? I'll kill you if I get to the dealer. Here, take it and give him a drink, and I’ll go get the doctor!” the guy handed the medicine to his sister, looking with alarm at his younger brother lying on the floor.
-Fine.
***
-You are nobody! Nonentity! Monster!
-I…
-Get out of here!
-You know, I’ve already stopped remembering those times, and you?
-No…
-Ha! Come on! Nonsense! Let's break through! - a friendly blow on the shoulder.
-Fine.
-Hey, don’t you believe me?
-I believe you…

“I’m standing on the threshold of his house on that very day...The day of his death. The hand itself reaches out to the bell and after a pause, the door creaks open by a sleepy Naruto in only pajamas.
-Oh, Gaara! I didn't think you were so early! Well, okay, come on in, why are you standing on the threshold! - Uzumaki laughed loudly, rubbing the back of his head.
- Hello, Naruto.
Is this really my chance? A chance to change everything?
-Do you want to have something to eat, otherwise I was just about to have breakfast?
-No thanks. I am not hungry.
-OK OK. By the way, I already packed all my things yesterday! I wasn't lazy! Oh, yesterday Sakura called and said that if I’m even a minute late, she’ll first tell everything to Sasuke, and then... In general, nothing good.” Naruto chuckled stupidly. “So now I’m keeping track of the time.” They will come for me only in two hours!
-Clear.
-I'm glad you'll come by to say goodbye. Of course, I’m not leaving for a month, but only for two weeks, but it’s still a long time!
“Yes.” Gaara sank into a soft chair opposite his interlocutor.
“Do you want me to bring you a souvenir from the sea?” the blond said conspiratorially.
-I don't need it. Naruto, I...
-Well, Gaara! I didn’t call you here to be sad! Why is there such a sour expression on his face? - Uzumaki feigned offense, sitting down in the next chair.
Because I know what will happen next...
“Naruto, I need to talk to you.” Sabaku looked at his friend seriously.
-Eh...Okay. Something happened?
I don't know how to start...XO.
-Naruto...How would you feel if someone suddenly changed their attitude towards you?
It was stupid.
-In what sense? And...If you're talking about Sasuke...Formerly they were enemies, now they are friends! Anything can happen in life! - Uzumaki smiled radiantly.
-No. I'm not talking about that...If someone told you...No. If you once found out that one person was not indifferent to you, and you didn’t even suspect it... - the red-haired guy sighed heavily, finishing his last words.
-Sakura-chan??? – Naruto looked at Gaara in surprise.
-No.
-I already thought...
-I don't mean her.
“Eh, who then?” he stared at him in bewilderment.
-Naruto...Don't get me wrong. I don’t want to upset you... Sorry, you can erase it from your memory and never think about it, but...
-What? Well, don’t be tormented already!” Uzumaki fidgeted in his chair.
- I love you. - “to instantly be close, carefully hug and carefully touch his lips...”
-What…?
-Xo... Naruto, I don't know how to say or express this. I've just been feeling this for a long time and I want you to know. Everything you did for me...I don’t know.” Naruto looked dumbfounded at the previously not particularly eloquent Gaara, opening his mouth in amazement, but making no attempt to move away from the guy.
“I believe you.” He suddenly smiled, glancing over the kanji on Sabaku’s forehead, one of the most alluring and sincere smiles, touching his cheek in a light kiss.”
"I believe you…"
***
-Kankuro-san, so what did you say he took? – a man in a white robe busily adjusted his glasses, turning to the guy sitting by his brother’s bed.
-Mescaline, something like that...
-Right. This drug, although it can be considered more or less mild, has an effect no worse than LSD. Causes long-term oblivion and hallucinations.” The doctor wiped the beads of sweat that appeared on his forehead with the back of his hand.
-We already understood this. Gaara doesn’t regain consciousness for almost four hours... - Temari said, adjusting the blanket on her brother’s bed.
“Yeah... I hope he comes to his senses soon...” Kankuro chuckled nervously, looking at the black circles under the younger’s eyes.
-In twenty minutes an ambulance will arrive and take your brother to a specialized hospital. Gather everything you need. If anything, here are my coordinates. - The man stood up, handing Kankuro a piece of paper with a number.
“I’ll accompany you.” Temari left the room after the medic.
The elder Sabaku stroked Gaara's tousled hair when he noticed that his brother's eyelids began to tremble.
-Gaara!
The guy’s red, as if inflamed, eyes suddenly opened.
-Gaara, you're awake! Well, thank God! – Kankuro rushed to hug him, not noticing that his lips were curled from a sharp headache.
-But why the hell did you do that, huh? – the brown-haired man pulled away, peering into turquoise eyes.
“I...” he said tiredly and hoarsely.
-You have no idea how worried we were about you! Why are you torturing yourself and Temari and me like this? Is it all because of Uzumaki? Yes? Gaara, they died three months ago, and you still can’t recover... This has become some kind of obsession for you! You've been practically raving about it lately! More precisely, you’re already delirious... - in his hearts, Kankuro squeezed his brother’s wrist.
“Kankuro...You know why...” almost azure eyes look carefully at their older brother, not hiding the already obvious truth.
***
“Dream or reality? Gentle touches, intoxicating intimacy. The taste of your kiss, giving a unique sensation. Your caresses are gradually driving you crazy, making you arch and moan from almost every touch of yours... What is this? Madness, vice, desires, instincts or... the impossible? Everything mixed into one..."
Voluptuousness.
Leaning forward, Naruto kisses the corner of his lips, smiling to himself as he does so. Gaara's hands carefully hug the much-needed, even necessary person. He leaves a trail of kisses on Uzumaki's neck, pressing him into the back of the chair and admiring him with his clouded gaze.
“Is this all a figment of my imagination? It can’t be like that..."
Thin hands stroke the body of his best friend, trying to show how much he...
"For what? Because I want to, because it’s necessary.”
A kiss on the snow-white collarbone and a bite on the shoulder in response. It’s so casual and casual, as if it’s the way it should be.
Thin fingers outline the contour of Uzumaki’s hips and body, gradually freeing him from clothes that have already become superfluous. Languid breaths and passionate kisses mixed into one general state of euphoria.
-Naruto...
“If you had stayed alive, everything would have changed... This is it... The happiness of an ideologist.”
***
“And, you know, I quit...I quit drugs, school, family, and soon I’ll quit this whole mortal life. Why? Because it’s necessary. There's nothing keeping me here anymore. You know, it's better to be the last of the wolves than the first of the jackals. I've heard this phrase somewhere before. All people are jackals, and a few are wolves. I don't consider myself one or the other. It's not up to me to decide. The main thing is to be able to become one of them, who you think you deserve to be. Deeds, thoughts, actions, soul - that's all! Decide, do, commit - and you will find out who you are. And it seems I already found out. From you... And now I'm leaving here. To you, forever. Why to the “wolves”? Because I realized that all the “jackals” are in the herd of “sheep”. Overcoming yourself, realizing your pain and understanding must be given. And if not, then no. Some people think suicide is the lot of the weak, but I think it’s the lot of the strong. Not everyone can just kill themselves. Maybe they are happy with everything and they don’t really have a reason for it? Maybe so, but I'm not like that...
Thank you Naruto. We'll meet Again…
This is my ideology."

The entire village, hidden by sand, was shaken by the news that the Kazekage himself had decided to get married! Or rather, his brother and sister decided to marry him. And so all the young daughters-in-law were lined up (author: as if to be shot). Until the Kazekagi appeared, the girls were whispering and arguing, each wanted to become the mother-in-law of the village. And so he went up and sat in a chair in full view of everyone (probably an electric chair), they began to invite girls to him and introduce him to him, one after another, starting with the upper class. It looked something like this: Gaara was sitting in a chair in a kazekage costume with a hat pulled down displeasedly and a rag pulled over his face, only his eyes were visible, displeasedly examining the girls who were brought to him for some reason. The girls came happy, while they told Gaara about each one, who she was, her family, etc., etc. The girls, some blushed shyly, some looked at him curiously, and one fell on her knees right at his feet and began to bow. It all lasted about an hour (well, I don’t know how many there are), Gaara was tired during this time, and the girls kept walking and walking...
Kankuro's recent conversation with Gaara:
- Why a wife? Who is this anyway? - asked Gaara
- Brother, well... how can I explain it to you? Temari won’t be sewing patches and buttons for you forever. You will live alone, that is, with your wife, and who will cook for you? What about tidying up?
- House worker? That's what I would say...
- No! - Kankuro interrupted him - Wife, in short, this is the woman with whom you will have children!
- Children, what are they for?
- You'll understand when they appear. You and your wife will also have, well... - Kankuro blushed, he had never had to talk to Gaara about such topics before - sex...
- What is it? Is this what my child's name will be?
- NO!
Kankuro explained to Gaara what sex is at the level of “mom and dad are playing football, barbell barbell goal goal goal!” In short, I depicted THIS with my hands...
Now
Gaara tried to imagine "sex". According to Kankuro, it feels good. The brother said something else about love, but the new four-letter word occupied his attention more.
Under the scorching rays of the sun, for almost an hour... Gaara was tired of it all and he decided to immediately stop this casting, instantly declaring
- This...
Your legs gave way because "this". It's you! A cute snub-nosed girl with brown hair and big blue eyes. Everyone's attention was focused on you.
-Did you say something to Kazekage-sama? - asked one of the high-ranking officials to make sure.
- This. - Gaara repeated louder and more insistently.
Only after he confirmed his choice did he decide to look at what he had chosen. Raising his hat, he saw a plump, middle-ranking girl with her little eyes wide open at him. “It’ll do,” Gaara thought.

Well done Gaara - Kankuro said before the wedding on the same day - and I already thought that you would choose some kind of kikimaru for yourself.
- What exactly should I do after the wedding? - asked the confused Gaara
“It’s at your discretion, you’re the boss of the house,” Kankuro replied, tying Gaara’s bow tie. - just don’t under any circumstances turn her into a mangy cat, then you yourself will suffer
“You are the master” stuck in Gaara’s head.
- Mom, am I sleeping? - you asked your mother, who was tying your corset
- Just don’t try to wake up!!! - your mother told you in tears - just think about Kazekage-sama himself!
You were in oblivion, you didn’t even remember saying “yes.” I woke up only when the Kazekage kissed your lips.
You were sitting on the bed in the luxurious house in which you now live. But it’s cold, women’s intuition did not fail. The Kazekage stood on the threshold of the room naked to the torso and looked at you with a cold gaze.
“I’m sorry,” you said, “But I don’t even know your name.”
“For you, Kazekage-sama,” Gaara replied.
“But...” you objected in surprise.
“I’m the boss here,” the Kazekage said, scaring you, “you’ll be a house cat, don’t leave the house!”
You opened your mouth, but only looked down. this is some kind of monster! But when it came closer and began to tear (literally) your wedding dress, you became scared. You were a virgin and he didn’t wait for your pain to subside, he had you hard, roughly. Only pain and fear. It doesn't bring you any pleasure. He shouted some terrible things at you, he beat you... push, push... Pain... Your screams, moans, prayers... His abuse, mockery... He-- finished... you don't...
This nightmare lasted for a year. At first you didn’t believe it, you said that he was just in a bad mood, but... every evening he became ruder and more unbearable. He never said pleasant words to you, often raised his hand to you, did not eat what you cooked, but splashed everything from the plate right in your face. Then he dragged you by the hair (you resisted at first) to bed and the most terrible thing happened there. He especially loved to do this when you had your period, it hurts you especially... and when he gets his way, he sends you out of the room to the sofa, and when he is in a bad mood, then at the doorstep on the rug... He really loves to bring you down to the point of hysteria and at the same time always smiling.
“Hello, where is *your name*-sama?” he asked a thin, pale girl with tear-stained eyes who met him on the threshold.
“It’s me,” you answered, in a dejected, hoarse voice from a cold.
Kankuro stood there in shock.
- Who are you and why did you come? - you asked.
- I'm Gaara's brother, I need to leave him a note.
-Who is Gaara? - You asked, still calling your husband Kazekage-sama.
- Like who is your husband! - Kankuro was indignant.
“So his name is Gaara,” you said quietly.
Kankuro walked in unceremoniously and began to examine you. Old gray clothes with many patches and lack of buttons. Traces of recent beatings, hair cut crookedly with a kunai. Thin, not like on your wedding day. Those lips haven’t smiled for a long time, and the eyelids are already red, even when you’re not crying. The eyes are empty, stupid.
Kankuro clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
- I still made “Mangy Cat”!
He stormed out of your apartment without leaving a letter or closing the door behind him. You cried again... You mangy cat.
-GAARA! - Kankuro shouted bursting into their office
- Something happened? - he asked as if nothing had happened.
- I love you!
- What?
“I’m inviting you to my place for dinner today,” said Kankuro. “I got married three months ago, and I want to introduce you.”
- For what?
- You'll find out!
As soon as they entered the house, a girl threw herself on Kankuro’s neck and kissed him on the cheek.
- Why are you late at work? M? Dinner has cooled down.
- Meggie, meet me, this is my brother Gaara. Gaara is my wife.
Gaara took a step back. Wife? He looked at the woman, a kind, friendly look and a soft smile.
- Will he have dinner with us today? - Meggie asked, to which Kankuro nodded - I’ll go warm up.
The girl, happy at all times, flew into the kitchen singing a cheerful song. Gaara began to shake. She's so happy. He looked at his brother walking behind her, into his eyes. Him too. Not at all like his...
- Gaara-kun, why are you standing there? - asked Maggie - sit down at the table.
Gaara walked forward and sat down on a chair; in front of him stood a delicious meal that was just begging to be put into his mouth. Kankuro praised his wife at the top of her lungs and laid her hands on both cheeks. Gaara also ate... delicious... But his wife also cooks, but he didn’t eat... he began to notice that the quality of the food you cook has become much worse. Really, why try if her husband still won’t eat and won’t appreciate it, but will throw it in your face. Gaara dropped the spoon and grabbed his head. Meggie's happy face for Kankuro's praise filled her husband with strength and Gaara saw it. and his wife? Just one good word for once? No...
"Gaara-kun, are you okay?" - asked a worried Maggie
“Don’t touch him now, my love, I’ll explain everything to you later...” said Kankuro
“Beloved” It flashed through Gaara’s head... Love... Meggie hugs Kankuro, they are pleased. And when his wife reached out to him, he hit her hands, he beat her, knocked love out of his wife.
- Meggie we need to talk to Gaara, wait for me in the bedroom
- Okay - and Maggie left.

- I saw your wife today. I think you see the difference between yours and mine. I thought I told you not to make her a mangy cat. Now you will suffer because you will have to atone for your guilt before her for a long time and maybe someday she will give you the Love that you so want.
Gaara didn't want to listen to anything anymore. Holding his head, he jumped out of his brother’s house and leaned against the wall to catch his breath. He felt scared. Kankuro opened his eyes and he is afraid to go and see what HE did to you. Breathing heavily, he wandered towards the house where they were waiting for him in fear. Suddenly he stopped at the window into his brother’s bedroom and what he saw shocked him even more. And in bed it’s not like that with my brother at all. Maggie moans not from pain, but from pleasure. She doesn't cry, but smiles. And she also gives her husband pleasure, she caresses him, kisses him, says pleasant words... Kankuro is also affectionate and frank with her, and does not wring her hands until it hurts and does not push her out of bed after an orgasm.
Gaara came home dead on the spot... quietly...
- *your name* - he called you
Like a trained dog with stupid eyes, you ran to meet him, but stopped three steps away. Gaara almost began to cry. A shabby cat, a downtrodden, scared kitten... with glassy, ​​stupid eyes and the corners of its mouth downturned. What about clothes? He tore it every time, and you sewed it together because there was nothing else to wear. Maggie looks with love, You with fear.
“Dinner in the kitchen,” you said quietly.
- It’s probably cooled down, can you warm it up? - Gaara asked in a trembling voice, but this trembling seemed like irritation to you.
He's not in a good mood! You rushed to the kitchen with a scared look on your face. She quickly heated the food and put it back on the table. Gaara slowly walked up to the table and looked at the plate. There is no way to call it anything other than (censored). If your husband doesn’t eat, then why try. Gaara clenched his fist and pursed his lips. You inhaled loudly, closed your eyes and flinched. Gaara looked at you in horror, you are afraid of his every move, you are afraid of him.
Your eyes were closed, but you clearly heard Gaara push back his chair, sit down and begin to move the spoon in the “soup.” You already opened your eyes and tears flowed out of them in streams.
"I deserve it. No matter... I'll eat every dinner." Gaara brought the spoon filled with liquid to his mouth, he felt sick not from the dish, but from himself. After all, because of him everything is so tasteless.
- No! - you said trying to stop him - Don’t eat this Kazekage-sama, I didn’t know that you were waking up and I didn’t try.
But Gaara was already eating. He barely hid his disgust, but he ate. And as soon as he finally understood the whole nightmare of the words you said, he flew into a rage. The table, along with the food, flew somewhere to the side and turned over. you pressed yourself against the wall.
- Sorry! - you begged through tears - Forgive me, I.. I will try...
- Do not dare!!! - Gaara said, grabbing you by the shoulders and pulling you closer to him. “Don’t you dare address me as you again, much less by your rank.” You are my wife, for you I am Gaara-chan!
Chan...sounded in your head. Without opening your eyes, you opened your mouth in amazement, into which, to your surprise, Gaara bit into it. He's never kissed you before. The only time at the altar...
- Now everything will be different! - Gaara said, lifting the table - tomorrow I will leave you some money and you will go shopping. buy yourself all the most beautiful things, and also a lot of fruits! They are useful and nothing too expensive, because we are in the desert...Go to the bedroom, I’ll clean it up.
You were afraid not to obey and headed to the bedroom. the words “Now everything will be different” stuck in your head. Out of habit, you began to undress so that Gaara wouldn’t tear your clothes again.
- No! -Gaara said - I myself.
You closed your eyes, preparing for the buttons to fly in different directions, but Gaara carefully unbuttons them and tenderly kisses your pale neck and trembles all over. Something flowed down your neck, his tears...
- Sorry...I want you to smile - he fell to his knees - what do I need to do to make you smile again?
You were shaking all over with horror at the sight of Gaara begging for forgiveness on his knees.
“You are not my husband,” you said in horror. “Who are you?” What did you do with him?
Gaara felt really bad. She doesn't even believe that he can change.
“It’s me...” said Gaara. “And I will kneel as long as necessary.”
You tried to escape from the room, but he managed to catch you. You screamed and struggled. Gaara threw you onto the bed and it took half the night just to calm you down.
“It’s me,” Gaara repeated, caressing your body, he was stung when he saw the vagina torn into blood and decided not to touch you there for now.
He showered you with kisses, caresses... trying to resurrect the one he killed. Just one year of torment and bullying and four years of Gaara atoning for what he had done, and only four years later he became happy because you called him “Beloved”

Gaara (我爱罗, "Demon Who Loves Only Himself") is originally introduced as an antagonist in the anime Naruto. As the One-Tail's jinchuriki (Shukaku), Gaara earned the nickname "Gaara the Desert" (砂瀑の我愛羅, "Sabaku no Gaara"). In the second part, he already appears as the Fifth Kazekage (by the way, literally “Shadow of the Wind”).
Gaara is the son of the Fourth Kazekage, and the younger brother of Temari and Kankuro. Even before the boy was born, his father ordered Chiyo to imprison Shukaku in his son, as he hoped that this would help Sunagakure gain the ultimate weapon. At the same time, Gaara's mother, Karura, died. Before her death, she cursed Sunagakure, hoping that her son would avenge her.
Because of Shukaku's power, people hated and feared Gaara. His uncle, Yashamaru, seemed to be the only one who cared about him. When a boy, without controlling himself, harmed someone, he understood that it was not out of malice. Unlike his father, who saw in his son only a failed experiment that threatened Suna.
Because of Gaara's danger, the Fourth Kazekage began sending assassins to him. But no one could defeat the boy. Then the father began to ask Yashamaru to rid the village of danger. As a result, Yashamaru received a fatal injury. Of course, Gaara was horrified to learn that his closest person tried to kill him. But the uncle said that he gladly went on this mission, because he wanted to avenge the death of his sister, and then made another murder attempt, exclaiming “Please die!” But Gaara survived this attempt as well. After this incident, the shinobi etched the kanji for "Love" (爱, "Ai") on his forehead. He became a cruel man who could kill anyone to prove his existence.

Personality:
Gaara's childhood was in many ways similar to Naruto Uzumaki's. Both were lonely and wanted to be loved and accepted as individuals. But Naruto decided to attract attention to himself through pranks, and Gaara - by killing unwanted people. Additionally, Naruto eventually ended up on Kakashi's team and was on good terms with Iruka, while Gaara's only close friend was the deceitful Yashamaru, who betrayed him. Thus, before meeting Naruto, he didn't understand the point of fighting for anything other than himself.
After this meeting, Gaara was shocked: Naruto understood his pain perfectly. He was even more surprised that Naruto didn't give up hope and eventually found friends who truly cared about him. Then Gaara began to think about his life. He decided to become the Kazekage, hoping that people would recognize him as a person. At the same time, their friendship with Naruto begins.
As the Kazekage, Gaara believes that each village should solve its own problems without the help of others.
Appearance:
Like Naruto, Gaara is slightly shorter than other guys his age. He has pale skin and short hair. His eyes are green, but in his childhood memories they were blue. Gaara does not have pronounced eyebrows. In general, a shinobi has two very noticeable features: the first is black rings around his eyes, which he has had since birth, because because of Shukaku the boy hardly slept. The second is the hieroglyph “Love” on the forehead.
In the first part, Gaara was seen wearing two different outfits. For the first time he appeared in a black suit with short sleeves and an open neck. At the same time, he wore a white cloth on his right shoulder. It ran diagonally to the left thigh and was attached there. There was a strip of leather running from the left shoulder to the right thigh. On his back, Gaara carried a "pumpkin" - a bag in which he carries his sand.
In the Sasuke Search Arc, Gaara changed from his previous black suit to a reddish brown suit with longer sleeves and a vertical collar.
In Shippuden, he wears dark long pants, a cloak, and a gray vest with one strap. The vest has straps that hold the pumpkin. He has also been seen wearing Kazekage clothing.
Sand Control:
As Shukaku's jinchuuriki, Gaara has the ability to manipulate sand. The amount of sand controlled simultaneously is enormous: in Shippuden there is enough of it to cover all of Suna from Deidara's explosives. In general, the sand that he carries in the pumpkin is pre-saturated with Gaara's chakra, so it is much easier to control.
Gaara rarely uses taijutsu during battle. He uses the proven combination: Sabaku Q + Sabaku Soso, in order to first immobilize and then kill the enemy. Although most of his attacks deal damage in a small area, Gaara can cause serious damage to his enemies.
But since Shukaku was extracted from Gaara, it is unknown whether he can use techniques such as Shukaku Shield or Shukaku Spear in battle.

Interesting things:
Before Chapter 58, Gaara apparently wore multiple earrings.
Gaara is one of two jinchuuriki who were Kage. The second was Yagura, the Fourth Mizukage.
According to the official Naruto reference book:
Gaara's hobby is growing cacti.
In Shippuden, Gaara and Naruto's weight and height are identical.
The shinobi would like to fight Sasuke, as well as anyone who threatens his village.
He completed 34 official missions: 0 D-Rank, 9 C-Rank, 8 B-Rank, 14 A-Rank, and 3 S-Rank.
Quotes:
Yashamaru: "What does the pain feel like?"
“I finally realized... I'm lonely. I don't trust anyone and I don't love anyone. I'm lonely".
Naruto: "I will kill you. I will not cease to exist."
Naruto: "For the sake of the shinobi world and as the Kazekage, I will protect you."
Naruto: "I think of you as a friend. Previously, the word “friend” was just a word for me... No more, no less. But when I met you, I realized how important the meaning of this word is.”

Gaara is one of the main characters of the manga and anime series “Naruto”, created by mangaka Masashi Kishimoto. In English version Gaara of Sandfall(Japanese: 砂瀑の我愛羅 Sabaku no Ga:ra?) (literally from Japanese Sabaku(Japanese: 砂瀑 Sabaku? , “Waterfall of Sand”, or “desert”). In the second season he becomes famous as Fifth Kazekage(Japanese: 五代目風影 Godaime Kazekage?). The sand is almost endless protection for him, and the kanji on his forehead means Love(Japanese: 愛 ai, a:?) - see biography. Also striking is the consonance of his name with the Sahara, which strengthens the idea of ​​​​sand. In the annual Shonen Jump polls Gaara usually ranks in the top ten favorite manga characters.

Story

Gaara is the son of the Fourth Kazekage and the younger brother of Temari and Kankuro. The shinobi first appears accompanied by his brother and sister before the Chūnin Exams. The first thing that strikes you about him is his cruel gaze, devoid of positive emotions. At birth, by order of his father, the tanuki demon Shukaku was imprisoned in his body. This was made possible thanks to the jutsu of one elderly ninja from the Village of Sand, a woman named Chiyo. Because the ritual required a sacrifice, the choice fell on Gaara's mother. Before her death, the woman cursed the village and her newborn child, but hoped that one day he would avenge her. Thanks to Shukaku, most of his techniques are based on the manipulation of sand, which he always carries with him in the form of a vessel. The sand protects him regardless of his will. His most dangerous technique is considered to be transformation into a demon, which makes Gaara truly invincible

Gaara takes on the form of Shukakku.

The reason Gaara's father did this was because the daimyo were slowly weakening the village, reducing its defense capacity. Even local feudal lords began to offer work in place of their village to foreigners. Seeing everything that was happening in the village, the Fourth Kazekage realized that their ninja should be stronger, and Gaara should become their secret weapon.

The whole village not only hated the child, but also feared the enormous power trapped in his body; the same father, before realizing how useful Gaara could be, wanted to see him dead (tried to kill him several times). As a result, Gaara became withdrawn and taciturn, experiencing hatred - for everyone except himself - and pleasure - exterminating the assassins sent after him by his own father. Over time, killing everyone who stood in his way became the only meaning of his existence. What made Gaara even more unstable was his insomnia, caused by the fact that Shukaku would destroy his personality by taking advantage of his lower defenses while sleeping. Its external sign was the dark circles under Gaara’s eyes, similar to those of the prototype of Shukaku, a raccoon dog.

Gaara's childhood was reminiscent of Naruto's, although it was sadder due to the complete lack of friends. That the one and the other were alone and had a strong desire to become pleasant, loved and generally accepted by others - they personally, and not the strongest and weakest of the tailed demons that they should “accommodate” - both were driven to the brink of despair. While Naruto came to the conclusion that joking and pretending to be a clown can attract the desired attention (no matter what - positive or negative), Gaara was convinced that it was possible to preserve and establish his existence only by killing everyone who encroached on him; from here it acquires its main characteristic - existentialism. Due to the lack of any approval from others, he gave the value of his life only in case of not taking into account the value of the lives of others. Moreover, Naruto eventually became friends with Iruka-sensei and Team No. 7 under the leadership of Kakashi, and Gaara never had friends, so he could not comprehend the principle of fighting to protect a person who is not himself.

In both cases, the two children tried to win over their peers in a positive, fun and friendly way. In one situation, Gaara used his abilities to get a ball that the children were playing with, but when they saw him, they began to run away. Not wanting to be left alone, Gaara asked them to wait, and his sand, taking this as an order, stopped the children. Enraged by their cries for help, Gaara practically killed some of them, stopping only after the intervention of his adored uncle and only friend, Yashamaru. Later, Gaara decides to ask for forgiveness by bringing medicine to the girl he hurt the most, but she closed the door on him, calling him a "monster".

In the eyes of his father, the Kazekage, Gaara became a failed experiment and a great danger to the residents of the village, so he ordered Yashamaru to kill his nephew (probably in the hope that if the sand depends even a little on Gaara’s will, then he simply will not have time to defend himself from his closest relative). But the boy managed not only to survive thanks to the sand, but also to hit the enemy in response. Before his death, Yashamaru told Gaara that he had hated him for all these years, blaming him for the death of Karura (who hated her son for the same reason), his beloved sister and Gaara's mother.

Hearing Yashamaru's last words, Gaara realizes that he has never been loved by anyone. After which, with the help of his sand, he knocks out the kanji on his forehead - Love(Japanese: 愛 ah, ah:?), so as not to forget who he was: “Narcissistic demon” - Gaa-ra. This was the only time his sand had hurt him, perhaps the first time he experienced physical pain. For the next 6 years, Gaara was the target of many assassins sent by the Fourth Kazekage, but each time he managed to save his life.

Gaara in Part II.

Subsequently, thanks to Naruto's intervention, Gaara realizes that the tendency to love himself alone and live for the sake of killing only leads to torment: for the first time, he does not feel alone, having found someone who understands him and shares his suffering. Struck by Naruto's desire to protect the people he loves, Gaara begins to change, apologizing to Temari and Kankuro for the first time. And it was the desire to live to protect others that led him to agree to take the title of Kazekage during one of the desert storms. Captured by the Akatsuki organization, Gaara dies while the demon Shukaku is being removed from his body (Naruto and his team are unable to come to the rescue in time). But the old woman Chiyo, who in the past imprisoned the demon inside Gaara, will bring him back to life by sacrificing herself and thus repaying Gaara the debt that she felt towards him for sentencing the boy to many years of torment. Later goes to the Five Kage meeting
