That much hate and anguish...

...Overcome.




I've always thought Gaara should be a kage. I realize that he is, but I'm going to make a case for him regardless.

Gaara's story is essentially Naruto's story except 10x worse. Gaara suffered the same loneliness Naruto did, except Gaara's was created his own Father, all the while having to deal with the fact that he occaisionally murders someone in cold blood. While Naruto led a relatively normal life compared to this, Gaara buckled under the pressure and hate of the village and Shukaku. Constantly in pain, constantly wanting to be recognized, just like Naruto; except instead of pulling pranks, he brutally kills people. Imagine being pushed to the brink of despair, of loneliness, to the point where the only time people recognize you is when you kill? THAT is pain my friends. Naruto, Sasuke, Nagato, can't hope to understand the pain Gaara had gone through.

And yet, while people like Nagato, Naruto, and Sasuke did suffer, they dwelled on it. They were consumed by their hate and suffering (Not so much Naruto to the same degree, but in recent chapters even Naruto has faltered and almost took part in the Moon Eye Plan). Gaara however, whos pain, loneliness, and hatred FAR exceeded any of their's overcame all of it. He made a complete transformation from what he hated into what he wanted to be. He became Kazekage because of his will to not give in to the hatred, fighting constantly with the tailed beast inside of him. He became Kazekage because even though everyone hated him, he made it his mission to show them that he cared.

The greatest pain, loneliness, hatred... Overcome, and turned into love, compassion, and will.

Did Gaara deserve the Kage title? He was the most deservent Kage of them all. If you can't tell, I highly respect the character of Gaara, and almost consider him a role model. That much will and drive to become more than your worst self... It's something we should all strive for.

10x worst.. errrrr depends. Gaara always had people for him, but he chose just like Sasuke to keep them out of his life, and when he fought Naruto he changed and started to treat them like family.

People again and again calling you monster, saying you should've rather died, get out of the village, not knowing who your parents are, looking after your own self.. is much harder then being Kazekage's son.

When did people say Naruto should have died, and leave the village?

And you realize Gaara had to do everything Naruto did as well, right? Except it was worse, he had to constantly fight with Shukaku to stop himself from murdering, and eventually just buckled. People literally wanted him to die because he was murdering.

And you realize Gaara's OWN FATHER tried to place hits on him?

No, just no. Deservant is not a word. Lol

Anyway, I agree, Gaara does deserve the title of the Kage, but who led him to over come the hatred? Remember, Naruto had a bit of luck but he could of gone the otherway.

And for the reasons you stated is why Gaara happens to be one of my favorite characters in the series. He's indeed worthy of the title Kage, more than anyone else has throughout the series due to his past and him finally overcoming the hardships thanks to his best friend Naruto

Watch the anime sir, watch the anime.

NO Gaara choose to do everything he did. Naruto CHOSE to behave the way he behaved. Gaara's situation was less worst then Naruto's. He was a god damn son of the Kazekage.. he had facilities available to him..


Your basing their past on the way Gaara chose to act vs the reality of the situation. People wanted him to die for a reason.....BUT what was Naruto's reason? Something his parents or Obito were responsible for?


Your not understanding this.. Gaara had some love in his life.. Naruto had NONE. Gaara atleast knew love. Gaara however was emotionally weaker then Naruto, and that is what makes his situation looks bad.

I think gaara had the most solid character development in this series.

He most definitely deserved to be a kage, but I wish we saw more of him. I always loved the dynamic he shared with Naruto and I wanted to see them together more often.

Not only that you compare Gaara to Naruto..... really?

Naruto had to live through the death of 2 of his sensei (though one came back). Naruto also showed understanding towards Nagato, saying he knows what the leaf did, and he understands Nagato's pain and therefore he would not kill him.

Naruto has dealt with shit more worst then Gaara in their overall life.... why the hell would you even compare them?

Anime is non-canon, I only talk Manga.

Who did Gaara have? Shukaku's hatred far exceeded Kurama's at the time. That's what cause Gaara to murder was Shukaku, you realize that?

Naruto himself stated that Gaara had nobody, just like him. How can you argue with that? Nobody loved Gaara. Nobody.

What's worse than not having anybody to love?

Having people to love, but they hate you and are scared of you.



Gaara had it WAAAAAAY worse than Naruto.

(1) His Dad tried to kill him
(2) He murdered his Mother's (brother?)
(3) Nobody loved him- just like Naruto.
(4) He f*cking DIED.
(5) Was forced and driven by a demon to kill people.
(6) Couldn't sleep, had insomnia
(7) Used as a weapon, nothing more

Get out, please. Unless you can come up with seven bullets that match all of those, just get out.
