What does Gaara’s left eye tattoo mean?
Gaara’s Tattoo – Gaara tattooed the kanji of love over his left eye as a visual reminder of his purpose and his being — that Gaara loves only himself. He harbored such a passionate hate for the world that manifested into a primal desire to kill. He felt nothing but rage and hate and he was fueled by it.
- He believed that it was his purpose to kill everyone;
- Gaara was made as foil to Naruto — an example of what would happen if Naruto had nobody;
- Both were alienated by their comrades so they can understand each other’s pain and loneliness but where they differ is that Naruto was surrounded by people who loved and cared for him, when Gaara only had himself;
Everyone from his village only accepted him as a weapon — to protect the homeland. Those moments in solitude would give Gaara too much time to reflect on himself and his purpose. What Naruto was quick to understand is that having peers, comrades, and friends is what brings life light — and that in fact, is true love.
