I've been hearing a couple of serious misconceptions concerning Gaara, which would like to clarify. Sorry, just can't take enough of this nonsense.

Firstly, Gaara cannot simply yank people out of Susanoo by himself. He was able to do it on ONE occasion simply because onoki lightened his sand.

It's the same as Onoki making A lighter and then making his arm heavy to strengthen his punch.

There is no way Gaara could do something like this on his own. Madara, Itachi or Sasuke can easily dodge his sand.

Now that this is settled, secondly, Gaara's sand can and is burnt by Amaterasu.

Here, it is obvious from what Sasuke is saying that here, Sasuke was using Amaterasu manipulation for DEFENSE against Gaara's sand, NOT vice versa. And as can be seen, very little of Gaara's sand is left. This means his sand can and has been burnt.

Thank You!!!

Thank you. I thought I was the only one tired of this. It's clear Sasuke and Itachi are on another level than Gaara. Gaara is awesome and all but he's not that strong yet +rep.

Some other things you missed but I will clear some of that in a new thread.

"they'd just Amatersu it or Susanoo it" is what they'll say :)

Remember, your favorite character is ALWAYS undefeatable! xd

My favorite character is Madara but he got his ass kicked by Hashirama.

Lightining the sand has nothing to do with having sand going underground
He did this in his Kimmimaro fight
It just made it faster

And Gaaras sand was already faster to the point where it stop Ameterasu and the Raikages kick
And Gaara would destroy Sasuke
Gaara and Itachi are debatable

No but seriously you made some good points. However Itachi>Gaara>Sasuke is how it would go. Sasuke's lightening would get crushed by Gaara's wind style. and The sand > any fire style from Sasuke.

As for the sand melting and him running out he can always make more. Gaara has a ridiculously large amount of sand in his jutsu's (Sand Tsunami, Giant Sand Buriel, etc.) that would get the gian't target of susano overwhelemed. Then of course there is always his sealing technique.

Itachi would beat gaara however via his genjutsu and totsuka blade + mirror combo.

For the First Part Your Using the logical fallacy called Post Hoc ergo Propter Hoc. We all know Susanoo fails to protect from beneath. There is no logical reason Gaara Can't Pull someone from Susanoo. No one in Full Susanoo or the Susanoo skeleton moves fast which leaves dodging out of the question. So why exactly can't Gaara do it himself? It's not the same as Oonoki making Raikage's punches heavier. Raikage did more damage as a result. Gaara's sand was made faster, but as a large Susanoo has never moved fast speed really isn't a big concern. Besides that I believe you've forgotten that Gaara's Sand had just been infused with Gold dust and wasn't use to the added weight of the gold dust. What has Madara, Itachi or Sasuke dodged in Susanoo?

Gaara's Sand was fast enough to catch Raikage in the middle of an attack. Something Sasuke had been unable to do by the way. But this is the same Raikage who dodged Amaterasu. So if Raikage's speed> Amaterasu then Gaara's Sand before the Gold Dust was faster than Amaterasu as well. Regardless of whether Gaara defended himself or not The Amaterasu can be blocked and moved away as the sand melts. Amaterasu won't hit Gaara. Susanoo can be attacked from beneath. Which leaves only Tsukuyomi as the major threat here.
Sasuke is not on Itachi's level either. >_> Gaara can solo Sasuke. The Scale of Gaara's attacks far outdoes anything Sasuke really has to offer. Sasuke's one savior may be Kirin if Gaara allows him the time to prepare it.... Really he can just continuously attack with Sand.

1.last time I checked onoki lighting his sand doesnt make it smaller it makes it move faster so madara couldnt notice it when it came and grabed him if onoki never did that and madara wasnt paying attention he still would have pulled madara out

2.when has sand ever been burnt and how can yu burn sand at that
