Many people know what the naruto anime is. The story of the growing up of a ninja boy who wanted to lead his native village to victory in an endless war. Only here, in addition to the main character, there are other worthy characters in the anime. It is interesting to watch them, since they definitely have their own special personality. In this article, you can learn about such a character "Naruto" as Gaara. Growing up, the hero becomes more and more powerful and powerful.
About character
Gaara is the son of the ruler of the sand village. As a child, a sand demon was imprisoned in his body, which could calmly destroy the whole village and go further to destroy the world. The boyโs parents made a difficult decision, making his son a vessel for dark power. That is why, when the hero was growing up, Gaara could not calmly exist with his peers. All the time terrible thoughts mixed in his head, which had no end. Any oversight, any manifestation of weakness, immediately produced a dark essence, locked inside.
Character training
When Gaara accidentally kills several children of elders, the question arises of what exactly to do with this incident. The heroโs father decides to train his son according to a special method, using advanced achievements of scientists on his body. He does this for a simple reason: the man wants to protect the boy, since the spirit can calmly take up above the body. But from the outside it seems that the father just does not care how his own son lives. Constantly hearing thoughts in his head, Gaara loses interest in almost everything. He trains day and night, increasing his strength. Thanks to the demon locked inside him, the boy can comprehend forbidden techniques, gaining the power of the ancient sand warriors. No one can defeat him in a fair fight, and since Gaara does not understand what mercy and kindness is, he tries to kill the enemy, since he should not survive the battle and pose a threat in the future.
Character meeting with Naruto
During the battle with Naruto, Gaara sees how it is possible to live with a monster in the body, but at the same time using his power every day precisely for his needs. After the defeat, the young man decides to change his own approach to life and for a couple of years stops communicating with his relatives. The only one who can somehow influence the worldview of the hero is his brother, who is older than Gaara, but in most cases he tries not to get into the guyโs head.
Meeting with your inner demon
To get the edge of power he needs, the hero decides to go on a pilgrimage. After he finds an ancient temple, sheltered in the sand, Gaara tries to understand his hidden technique. Sacrificing part of the memories, the young man creates a barrier. If the spirit living inside decides to go through it in order to go outside, he will immediately kill his actual carrier, therefore, he will die himself. Such a measure allows you to start a dialogue between these so different creatures. An adult Demon in Gaara does not want to die, but if he does not eat, then what difference does it make that will kill him? Gaara, on the other hand, does not want to lose his strength, he is not going to give all power over his body to the demon. Once upon a time, a guy noticed what could happen to others if he relaxes for at least a minute. As he grew older, Gaara realized that he was not going to give up positions.
Gaara and Naruto
Gaara is the opposite of Naruto. At its core, it was created specifically to show the exclusivity of the protagonist. If you ask a simple question what function he performs as a character, then we can understand that he does not have it. Gaara just exists, but if you compare him and the main character of the anime, and such a comparison appears sooner or later, it is obvious why it is Naruto who knows how to behave as befits a good person. Because he is a hero. It is the meeting with him that changes Gaara. Naruto's level of development is higher, and this serves as a trigger for changing the character's worldview. It is thanks to Naruto that the adult Gaara becomes the next head of his village.
