The Crying Eye

[Meowazziel]

Did you guys notice the third eye jutsu, that was floating around Yashamaru and Gaara?
It was crying and it was not Gaara his third eye jutsu.
It was Gaara's father.

In mirror 2:
@ 10:25, the eye cries and you can see the eye float away form gaara and Yashamaru @ 12:15-12:19 and than @ 12:25 we see Gaara's father closing one of his eyes with his fingers, just as is done in the third eye jutsu.

I love such little details.
Thought I would share in case someone missed this.
I loved this emotional episode and it had a great animation as well.

His father cared more for him than it might have looked like at first (not including the emotions he showed as Edo, cause those made it really obvious he cared for his son), but a detail like the crying eye. shows his emotional side when he was not an edo yet and how much of a struggle it has been to protect the village and the assasination attempts on his own son, for who he cared. Not saying he wasnt a bit messed up in the head for doing so though.

Were those really tears? I just thought they were little particles falling off the eye or something

They seem a bit white blue and liquid like. Why zoom in on little particles? However for tears, zooming has more purpose.
It might be gold dust dropping in particles (shouldnt it have been more yellow in that case)? However I prefer if it were tears, it makes the episode more beautiful.
and even if it is gold dust dropping in particles, one could say they symbolize tears .


I checked some other tears in the show, like Motoi's tears when Bee did his forgiving rap for him and they are the same color as what drips from that ''the third eye'' I think.

Maybe it's because I watched it in 1080p, but it was clearly gold dust. But yeah you could say it symbolizes tears.

I didnt watch it in 1080 so ill assume you are right.
Ah well, symbolizing tears is still nice imo .

I watched it in 720p and those aren't tears it was gold dust, so yeah that's how the jutsu works, basically you move your eye with the sand.
