yeah, it's the village of sand so there's probably enough around there so the he doesn't need to carry a gourd full of it. Maybe that's why it was so hard to assassinate him as well.Originally posted by: Neji-Aniki-sama
Wasn't to big for him to carry it when he was a kid?Originally posted by: Inquisitor77
Has anyone else noticed that Gaara never has the giant sand container in any of the flashbacks? I checked 75 and 76, and he's never wearing it, but the sand is still there...
Maybe he doesn't need it while he's in his village. There's enough sand in the sandboxes around for him to play with.
Maybe the gourd is more of a travelling device or something...
