Neji vs Gaara

[Moses The White]

Okay... Gaara has never been in a real battle ever, because the sand demon/ kazekage protects him. Neji, on the other hand, has a practically impenetrable defense, is very fast, has byakugan, and the tenketsu hit thing. Even though the sand shield uses the kazekage's chakra, the armor, which i think is more effective, uses Gaar's chakra and can thus be shut down if his tenketsu's are closed. Also, the sand shield / desert coffin are slow moving and can be 'cut', as we see in some of the other battle's Gaara has been in in which he hasn't killed the other guy outright. I think that there would be no way for Gaara to win. Plus, the only reason Lee didn't completely kick his ass is that he opened five of the gates and messed himself up. Gaara didn't deal him any damage until that. And Neji is stronger than Lee anyway. So EAT THAT GAARA!!!!

I think Neji would win.. No real reason why.. Just think so..

[Anbu Girl]

hard to tell. it would be a good match to see. absolute defense vs absolute defense, that&#39;s going to some shiznit brawling. but once gaara is in neji&#39;s hakke, he&#39;s gone.

btw, GREAT Sig I LOVE KYO&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;

[rEkKaShInObI]

dont forget that rock lee is a genius to =D

[Noonan]

Neji is prolly my fave character - so it pains me to say it, but

no demon = Teh Loser&#33;

Neji has great chakra control and an Awsome bloodline ability..

But Gaara would own him at his current power level...

maybe 5-10 years from now Neji would be able to take him, but not now.

Nope Im a guy, the name Serpico comes from the second best character of the Berserk manga, My favorite character is Farnese but I dont want to use a girls name. My avatar is just cuz I like CZ, and my sig is something i drew. Lots of girls use sasuke or kakashi avatars so im not sure thats a good judging point.

Though I defend Neji here I actually like Gaara and Neji just about equally as my favorites except over Lee. Thus I never care who wins most of the time, Lee vs Gaara, or Neji vs Gaara. Both sound like good fights so thats my main concern. I think Neji vs Gaara would have been awesome to see though.

[Yozora]

Gaara would win. There&#39;s no way Neji&#39;s Kaiten could hold up against Gaara&#39;s sand well enough.

Besides, TenTen is biased, being the Neji-fangirl she is.

[Sigure]

Sadly I like both...but Neji will win because so I heard that when the sand protects Garaa it doesn&#39;t take chakra, and I doubt Neji is fast as Rock Lee, and if Neji use all his chakra in 64 hits or kaiten he will just run out of chakra and Garaa will win easily...so I guess.

[Iznogoud]

Definitely Gaara...
Neji can&#39;t get past his sand defense...and his defense can get past by sand don&#39;t you think ?
Gaara is probably the strongest genin in the tournament...
All he has shown was desert coffin...i guess he has some other justus&#33;

@villin: whirl is good...maybe they could have called it whirlwind aha

The armor will stop GENTLE fists.........
it probably block chakra from getting into inside.
also, neji is NOT fast enough to get pass his sand shield.
absolute defence vs absolute defence?
well lets see how long neji can spin before he gets dizzy. gaara could just mass him with sand forever over and over again with the SAME sand. 64 is useless if you cant get close. Taijutsu is a bad match up with gaara. unless u have rock lee speed. and NOTHING BEATS THE cheap SAND IN THE EYE. take out neji&#39;s byakugan vision with some sand muauyhaeMUAAHAHAHAHAHA

[rEkKaShInObI]

everyone knows gaara cant fight... he such a wimpy lil shinobi. rely to much on his sand, i betcha he&#39;d be jammn at 1000 mph back to the sand village if his defense was penetrated.

You don&#39;t know didly about Gaara but you&#39;ll be educated soon enough.

[Kakashi-San]

Sorry to dissapoint all of the Neji fans in here, but have we ever really seen Gaara fight? I mean c&#39;mon during the fight with Lee he pretty much just sat there, I&#39;m sure since, the day of the tournament, the innerbeast inside of Gaara could have eaisly taken care of Neji. I mean he freakin ate that sound guy for breakfast, and Neji no where matches Lee&#39;s speed. So i highly doubt that Neji could kill let alone defeat Gaara

[Serpico]

Kyubi Naruto was more or less the on the lvl of Lee and his gates, so if Neji can keep up with him, he is fast enough to also pass the sand shield, and frankly I dont think sand armor will do anything vs the gentle fist. If it can pass through through the skin it can pass through sand.

And why would Kaiten not work on sand? That doesnt even make sense.

sure, what a fantastic tradeoff, have a slight chance for minor damage, and just risk having all your bones crushed by the sand when you thouch it.

Gaara&#39;s defence is so great becuase it&#39;s also his offence, if you try charging at Gaara with an all out attack, you might hurt him, but if you don&#39;t have a way to escape, then your&#39;e good as dead (or half crippeled Lee).


neji 64 point hakka (I refuse to call it divination...) won&#39;t work, cuase the armor of sand will absorb it, and using the gentle fist is risky as well, cuase it&#39;s possible that the armor of sand will be able to absorb it aswell (there&#39;s a diffrence between passing chackra through the skin than through highly packed sand)

Kaiten (heavenly spin is good, divine whirl is bad) will also be useless, cuase there&#39;s always sand below, so Gaara could easily just captue Neji&#39;s legs and force him to stop the spining motion, or else he&#39;ll twist his legs.

Neji is nice and stuff, but Gaara will totally own his X(used to be buddha symbol) - sealed ass and send him to do dishes in the hospital next to lee...

[Serpico]

Lee attacked Gaara point blank against his sand shield for a long time without getting his bones broken or even hurt, he was able to dodge and deflect it and Neji is better than him as well as has a chakra shield if he needs it.

It was not Gaara&#39;s offense that crippled Lee, he crippled himself.

Sand is spherical and therefore impossible to pack so tight there isnt any microscopic opening, which Byakugan is able to see.

As far as I know Neji is standing in dirt not sand. There is not always sand below. If Gaara wants sand below he will have to move it there himself unless they are on a beach.

[PSJ]

gaara of course didnt you see what he did to dosu and what he did to lee. not even neji would be able to keep up with lee in extreme lotus speed but gaara won that fight. and even if nejis defense is stronger than gaara&#39;s gaara got stronger attacks.

[DB_Hunter]

I voted even but come to think of it Neji&#39;s Kaiten would drain his chakra over time. As for Gaara crushing Nejim while is Kaiten is going, that wouldn&#39;t work because the sand would just fly off due to the spinning.

As for Kyuubi Naruto, my theory is that he was only given enough energy by Kyuubi to allow him to keep his current form (i.e. not go fox like when he did against Haku) and fight Neji. Neji probably has attained the highest level of natural chakra a genin his age/size/strength can acheive so Naruto was pushed up to the same level by Kyuubi.

I am still not convinced guys I need move help. In fact I am even worse now because I agree with what Serpico has said. She (I assume you are female from your avatar and sig. I apologize in advance if I am wrong and with change this immediately if I am wrong) said that Neji kept up with Naruto&#39;s increase in speed. I believe that.
The question then is was Rock Lee faster the Naruto. I think he was so then why did he lose. I think because his gates focuses too much on one move so he would no be able to keep up that speed forever. Naruto is slower than lee I believe but I still think fast enough to give him an advantage therefore I think Neji is fast enough to use that to his advantage. He is also a genius at close combat which would work to his advantage too.

I do agree that Neji can&#39;t use his Kaiten defense all day long but with his speed I don&#39;t think he has to.

Plus he has his Byakugan&lt;--- must be good for something in this match

[Assertn]

does gaara even use chakra for using the desert coffin? normally i would say yeah, but if he was able to attack naruto and shikamaru while his body was binded, then maybe the sand can attack automatically for him as well.....and if thats the case, then even if his tenketsu were pressed, he wouldnt necessarily lose
