Talk:Gaara VS Toph/@comment-5035900-20150117010510/@comment-25517437-20150117152236

Yeah, there is no chance Toph could ever bend Gaara's sand. As we all know from watching Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra bending sand is a hard thing to do for earthbenders. Yes Toph got better at it, but she still mostly fights using solid earth, rocks and harden dirt. So even tho she got a little better at it, she still has very little experience with bending sand. The biggest thing she has ever done with sand was make a model of Ba Sing Se. ===> http://oi59.tinypic.com/ea5hec.jpg Here is another shot of it. ===> http://37.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6e3g0vAtu1rzbxiio4_1280.jpg That is the most sand Toph has ever been shown to move. Now let's look at how much sand Gaara can move. A shot of his sand tsunami when he first uses it. ===> http://ts3.mm.bing.net/th?id=HN.607998366850484208&pid=1.7 Here it is about to hit an enemy in the manga. ===> http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/scale_medium/13/130029/3130551-naruto-4197.jpg Look very carefully you can see a guy standing there. Here is a shot from the anime of it about to hit someone. ===> http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-bfxWMyOsAgM/UfKrInDi8WI/AAAAAAAAAH8/oDJF8HScQv4/s640/Ry%C5%ABsa_Bakury%C5%AB.PNG And then here he is moving even more sand. ===> http://www.mangapanda.com/93-253-12/naruto/chapter-248.html That is a city below them by the way. Here he is turning a forest into a desert. ===> http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20091027045443/naruto/images/thumb/e/e2/Waterfall_Funeral.jpg/320px-Waterfall_Funeral.jpg Here is another shot of the area after he flooded it with sand. ===> http://ts4.mm.bing.net/th?id=HN.608025042920276432&pid=1.7 And here is where he used sand to catch a big ass meteor and stopped it from crushing everyone. ===> http://ts1.mm.bing.net/th?id=HN.607990249373174115&pid=1.7 So pound for pound, Gaara can clearly move way more sand than Toph ever bended earth, metal, sand, etc... And this is one thing people always get wrong. It's NOT Gaara's chakra infused into the sand he carries on his back. It's the chakra from his dead mother, and that is why it moves on it's own. It is controlled not by Gaara, but the will of his mother. As she died she promised to always protect Gaara. This is why the sand moves on it's own and always protects him from attacks, even if he doesn't want it too or doesn't see the attack coming it will protect him NO MATTER WHAT! And he doesn't have to do anything for it to move. But not only does it protect him against any injuries, but it even protects him against self-inflicted injuries! Meaning that Gaara with his insane mastery of sand can't control the sand against it's will. ===> http://www.animefamily.com/images/NARUTO/Manga/ch129-gaara-knife.gif So how the hell would Toph be able to control the sand and use it against Gaara, when Gaara can't even kill himself with it or just force it out of the way to cut himself? Remember that Gaara can move way more sand than Toph can bend. So Toph who has very little experience bending sand, and ZERO experience bending sand that has it's own will and moves on it's own, could never be able to force the sand out of the way or ever move it if Gaara can't. The sand can NOT be moved against it's will. Just as the name of Gaara's defense is "Absolute Defense" his mother's control of the sand protecting him is ABSOLUTE!
