I think he doesn't need it. Just like naruto got way stronger with sennin mode, and without the need of kyuubi. Obviously the shukaku will make gaara stronger but without being able to control it it's just an obstacle, and surely gaara has gotten a lot stronger since the time when shukaku was stolen.

Plus, Gaara can finally go to sleep without worrying about being possesed by it!!!

ye , i cant imagin gaara with tai jutsu
having shukaku in the meeting would would have been an advantage, he threatands that he is getting asleep so that the others pay attention to him...no1 would want to mess with garra while having shukaku.

yea. i agree. hes fine without it. he doesnt have to worry about killing people for no reason and for that to be taking over him when he doesnt want it too. hes more calm without it and doesnt have to worry about it anymore.

I'd say he's just about the same. He seems to be more comfortable with his sand control as the Shukaku isn't interfering but perhaps cannot use the sand to do AOE attacks on the same range as when he was a host.

Though it was great power for garaa, I think he did all those things mostly of his on ability. The shukaku was more of a defensive and enhancement passive ability. All the things garaa does is his own strength.

if gaaras not possessed by shukaku hel still be an excellent ninja by ninjutsu or taijutsu or genjutsu . it doesent matter if hes a jinchuriki or not. its what comes from inside what matters not outside.

I think that Gaara is stronger now then when he had the one tail in him. the only time you see Shukaku is during the chuunin exam, so i mean its hard to tell cuz naruto gets rid of it so quick. i still say that hes stronger now without.:confused:

That's true, so in a way he should have a sense of relief and normality that comes without being a Jinchuuriki. Gaara had displayed his powerful defense against Sasuke's Enton as Sasuke himself commented on his absolute defensive sand some chapters ago. Although, Kishi never revealed much of his jutsu or anything really new to begin with so who's to say whether or not he has gotten stronger or weaker without Shukaku. I think he has been learning and training himself to become better without having to rely on the bijuu. Similar to when Sasuke had his curse mark removed and how he has grown in the elasped time between the fight with Kirabi and Raikage. I don't think that he needs to learn taijutsu because he is still strong without the bijuu, has his own fighting style and he is the Kazekage for heaven's sake .

i think that he's weaker without the shikaku cuz he has to use the sand to protect himself instead of just standing around while the sand automaticly protects him

He has a unique style of combat. He can control sand even after the bijuu taken away. he was made a jinchurikki before his birth, its like being special. He is strong even after taking the bijuu coz he seldom used bijuu. All his combats were by his own strenght

:D All the more reason to have a versatil style, Garra is the Kazekage and he should be able to display an array of jutstu aside from his remarkable sand ones. Garra did get Kudos from Sasuke, followed by Sasuke showing a stronger defense in the Sasanoo than his or at least he claimed.

I don't doubt that Garra has grown but I question his ability to wield as much chakra as he has before I know he is Kazekage but he did loose a large amount of chakra and to compinasate for that loss I wandered if maybe he'll develope more close range Jutsu and switch it up. How difficult would it be to fight Garra with the abilty to physically attack you close range and step out to finish with a Kage level sand Jutsu which to me is actually a Kekkei Genka:Di

I think that if Gaara was to learn another form of fighting style then he would be more better in combat and more phenomenal than he already is. It definitely would be kakkoii. Although, I really like his sand manipulation and his various displays of sand jutsu but regardless, he is bad ass the way he is.​

Bad ass would be an understatement! Garra is the bomb and only when Pain was introduced was Garra moved to the 4th spot in my fav characters list. Garra is completly capable on his own like everyone says but wouldn't it be something to see an addition to his repitoire like another element also Kages normally have several natures and are skilled in many justsu thats all i'm saying. Kishi gotsta know what im saying Garra is going to be very influential and his power will be recognized as one of the greatest of the Naruto universe.

The only thing that he gained from the shukaku was the passive sand shield that swirled around him and defended him even when he didnt tell it to. Everything else (him controlling the sand for attacking, etc) was all gaara's power to begin with. So he is still insanely powerful.
