The Part 1 version of Gaara is the second character to be introduced in Season Pass 7.

Whatever the base game version of Gaara lacked has been made up for with the young version. While his attack speed is mostly the same and has slightly less combo options, his short stature does make him slightly harder to hit, and his sphere-based heavy attacks create plenty distance between him & any nearby opponents.

As for his Ninjutsu, these are welcome changes for the Defense Class. Sand Tsunami has Gaara create a tidal wave of sand that he uses to travel around an area. While this may look like a palette-swap of Spiked Human Boulder at first, its additional abilities are VERY tempting - for starters, Sand Tsunami can travel up walls, pierces Sand Shield & Water Style: Water Pillar, and also has a follow-up that makes the trail of sand the Ninjutsu leaves behind explode, spinning out and damaging any opponents in it; the sand trail also lowers the speed of enemies walking on top of it.

Sand Coffin sends out hands made of sand that trap an opponent where they stand, leaving them vulnerable to attack and can follow up using Sand Burial, making the sand around the opponent explode. Each use of Sand Burial gets ever stronger, though the damage multiplier resets if Gaara gets KO'd.

Lastly, Playing Possum Jutsu brings a new style of play to the game, allowing the player to temporarily play as Shukaku. While they may not be able to move around the stage freely, the use of teleportation markers can allow for sudden assaults with proper coordination and quick sweeps of waves of enemies.
