I think the biggest failure of judgement here has to be this: Earth bending requires actual physical movement for them to actually bend earth (apart from remote earth bending, where Toph has never actually needed to do this and we have only seen Bumi (who required a great deal of concentration to pull it off) and Aang (in avatar state) do it). Gaara manipulates sand with his mind, and his ultimate defence doesn't even need thought it's basically a reactive armour. Gaara could quite literally encase Toph in sand, immobilizing her, and crushing her way before she could be even afforded the opportunity to even amass a pebble to launch at him.

[@Tuggio]

[@kl-re9fj]

That wouldn't work cuz as we seen before, toph has submerged herself in the earth it self to move as transportation. If Gaara covered her completely in sand she could just bend a hollow opening inside of it all for her to be in. She doesn't rly have to move to be able to do that also. Aslong as something earth related touches her hand or feet or even her body itself she can bend it she's done it b4

He decides the best course of action is to lock himself in a sand dome against someone who could’ve just created a pit under him? Brain power at 0. He watched her survive sand coffin and thought it’d work out if he just threw more sand at her? Yeah, okay.

[@Anto_85571]

Pretty sure what actually happens in the animated fight isn't as important as the results. That's just some flavor done for our entertainment. Also what else can he do? His whole kit relies on sand. That's his thing. Is he suddenly gonna whip out fireballs, and lightning out of nowhere?

[@BuzzabeelYT]

@@Anto_85571Accurate results don't matter when you cherry pick what each character can and can't have. If they were going to skew the fight against Gaara they could've at least given us a good one. He wouldn't stand around letting her control his sand or any around him for one. It'd be a stalemate. In the show Toph has never been shown to be able to bend two versions of the same element at once. I don't remember her ever metalbending _and_ earthbending at the same time. Yet here she's the earth Avatar. Gaara wouldn't fight stupidly. He learned Kimmimaro was too tough to crush normally and fought smarter. He didn't just use sand waterfall because a lot of sand = drown. There are two ways Toph can win. She takes hostages like Deidara or she surprises him legitimately, not by him exhausting his chakra for no reason, taking a break in his bubble, and still being tired. Not even mentioning that Toph has to be faster than him. That's the only way a fight like this wouldn't be them just playing tug of war for five minutes. Plus if they can use DVD extras and comics for Toph, the results could've only been fair if they used the databooks for Gaara. _He has wind and lighting release._ Him never using them doesn't change what the databooks say, and IV came out in 2014. He had more battle experience at 12 than Toph had in her whole life.

[@Anto_85571]

@@BuzzabeelYT Toph is almost always multi bending. Even when she metal bends she still uses her seismic sense to see her opponent, and you can't say that's different. She has plenty experience. She's won tournaments, fought a war against enhanced fire benders, and even defeated bending masters with more experience than her multiple times. She's done many impressive feats like slowing down the sinking of a massive library, and a giant drill. Where she lack in experience she make up for with raw power. Even if Gaara didn't supply her with sand, she could just get resources from the surrounding area, and if Gaara went of the defensive, and they had "equal control of the sand" I'm pretty sure Toph can break through it. Once she was able to break an iron ship in half with a single strike. And the Toph they used in the fight may be the young, but that's because it's more recognisable. They're really using a composite version, so it includes the experience of her older versions as well.

[@BuzzabeelYT]

@@Anto_85571 Having the experience of tournaments, a few battles, and one war doesn’t compare to someone who has 14 A rank missions under his belt and 3 S rank, who _also_ fought in a war and had just as many if not more extra battles during the chunin exams alone. Using her seismic sense at the same time as metalbending doesn’t change what I said. She metalbends _and then_ she earthbends. She has never done them at the same time. In no universe is Toph able to overpower Gaara. He helped to stop the descent of a massive meteor, has blocked attacks from the Raikage, who can and does cave in ribcages with a single hit and uses lightning armor, and survived the impact of a second giant meteor unharmed that landed on top of him. Gaara has power, an incredibly hard defense, _and_ speed. And I’m only taking his feats before the date of this video. Toph using the surrounding area would only give him more ammo. His control of sand isn’t limited to what’s in front of or behind him. Gaara has been praised for his intelligence multiple times throughout the series. To think that he would just stand there and let Toph do things is not Gaara. It’s Kiba.

[@Anto_85571]

@@BuzzabeelYT At this point, you're just taking the facts I'm giving you and saying "No" Seismic sense is an earth bending technique, and metal bending is different. And the very concept of metal bending is manipulating multiple sources of minerals, as certain metals are a composition of different minerals. And again Toph has been able to go against bending masters more experienced than her, adult more than twice her age with years of experience, fire bending soldiers that were enhanced by the comet. She was able to match King Bumi, a very talented and strong earth bender with over a hundred years of experience, and I never said Toph has more experience than Gaara. I implied that she herself has certain amount of experience. Like I said Toph is a really heavy hitter and also very strong, she was able to slow down a giant sinking library, and broke a battle ship in half with a single strike. She did this while on her own ship, raising a pillar of rock from deep under water in a mater of seconds. Gaara's armor has definitely broken with weaker attacks, add on to that Toph could also manipulate his armor herself further weakening it. And technically both of these two attacking each other will just supply one other with more ammunition, but the difference is Toph is attacking with sand, stone and metal, while Gaara still has to breakdown the stones. Also Gaara needs chakra to use his abilities, while Toph doesn't have such limitations.

Wait, with his sand, Gaara can FLY. He can simply float in the air and muffle the sounds he makes (like breathing and his heartbeat) with his sand layers and Toph would have no clue where he was until he hit her with his attacks, which, by the way, don't necessarily have to be with earth-based materials. And his sand cannot be manipulated. He literally spends all of his waking hours infusing the sand in his gourd with his chakra, practically making it a part of his body. This fight wasn't exactly fair. They left out a bunch of Gaara's abilities.

[@17ness1]

Dude, they covered that.

[@clockworkkirlia7475]

+crzymn246 But she can sense his sand.... and his armour. She can *always* "see" him. And yes, in Avatar all bending is done from chi, the equivalent to Chakra. Manipulation can be done if the manipulator's bending is more skillful or much stronger than the victim's. Toph spends her whole life, awake, asleep, whatever, using her bending on a microscopic scale to sense her surroundings. She is one with any earth she comes into contact with. She is as skilled with her element as it is possible for her to be, and she has a great deal of natural power to compliment it. You could debate that Gaara is better with sand specifically, but even so Toph has far more versatility and can manipulate the gold within the sand as well.

[@TheTrueWolfboy]

+Lord Obsidious Gaara could be considered a better sandbender than Toph is an earthbender because Toph (at least, not Toph from the OG Avatar- I never watched Korra) has never controlled as much as Gaara controls rather commonly later in the show. With this in mind, there are only two times a bender can control another bender's materials- if the attacking bender relinquishes control in the form of launching an attack at the other bender, the defending bender can then redirect it. The other time is when one bender is significantly more powerful than the other, and can wrest control from the other. Gaara never 'lets go' of his sand when he attacks. He is controlling it until the opponent is dead. We can assume that he is a better sandbender because of the massive amounts of sand he has controlled. With this in mind, Toph could not bend Gaara's sand and would lose.

[@clockworkkirlia7475]

TheTrueWolfboy The problem with that summation is that Toph is connected on a very physical level to all earth near her, all the time. She has trained herself to be constantly connected to Earth (and later metal, sand and mud), simply for the purpose of sight. Sure, she may not have Gaara's range, but as soon as that sand gets close to her it is *hers*. She knows the nuances of earthen materials on both a structural and *atomic* level (hence why she was able to detect the trace earthen impurities within solid steel). Gaara may well have the sheer power as regards sand alone, but remember that he has no direct control over the piggybacking gold dust, other than that it's connected to his sand; Toph, however, has an insane amount of influence over both the sand and dust, and can transmute the sand to her more native earth and stone at will, which Gaara can't take back until he uses more of his precious chakra to churn it up.

[@TheTrueWolfboy]

+Lord Obsidious If Gaara is the more powerful sandbender, which nobody is denying, then Toph's earthbending skill wouldn't matter because she wouldn't be able to take it from him in the first place. Gaara is also connected to his sand on an extremely deep level because he has poured so much chakra into his gourd sand that it has become an extension of his body. Toph cannot transform the sand because he has control over it- as evidenced by pretty much every bending fight in all of Avatar, to bend an element it has to be under your control. When benders redirect their opponent's attacks, it is because the opponent released control over the material in a launching attack. The exception is if one bender is more powerful, in which case they can simply seize control. (Example (for both of these points, actually): Katara versus Hama, the Bloodbender.) Also, Gaara has Magnet Release techniques (whatever the hell those are, I don't watch Naruto) and the gold dust isn't "piggybacking", Death Battle was blatantly incorrect about him not controlling the gold dust. Now, obviously it isn't as connected to him as his normal sand, but he still has control over it.

All the Avatar fans like "omgee, stoopid animu fans Toph really would have won". Seriously, look at the facts, Gaara would have destroyed Toph. The Sand Burial alone would've killed Toph, but in regards of the kill, she wouldn't have been able to get behind him in the first place. Nothing Toph can do is strong or fast enough to get past Gaara's sand. He's basically untouchable.

***** I don't know how I was being "salty". I simply stated the facts. There's no way Toph would've beaten Gaara. On top of all the other stuff I said, when she killed him by punching him in the back of the head or whatever, I honestly doubt that would've broken his sand armor, considering Rock Lee's Hidden Lotus didn't do it, and that left a huge crater in the ground. Second, she wouldn't have been have been able to use his Absolute Defense against him, considering how much chakra his sand contains. It would've resisted her Earth Bending. Thirdly, just because she can see his sand coming doesn't mean she can move fast enough to dodge it. Gaara's sand moves at near supersonic speeds, and I've never seen Toph move that fast. You say I'm deluded.

[@vinczesamuel7768]

Force0fWi11 " she killed him by punching him in the back of the head or whatever, I honestly doubt that would've broken his sand armor". It didn't break his sand armor, she crushed him. She bent Gaara's sand armor, creating a similar effect to Gaara's Sand Burial. And on a 2nd note, Toph could do this at ANY TIME, just bend Gaara's sand armor and crush him. Easy win for Toph.

[@eligibbons2155]

Now, I love avatar. I've watched every episode and am on 264 of shippuden after watching naruto. One thing I'd like to stress is that toph couldn't have got to him at the end. I't's been shown that the only way to beat Gaara's defense is with enourmous momentary power (Gaara vs Diedera) or enourmous speed. Now, I'm not saying toph isn't strong because she is but gaara's sand didn't even try to protect him. Also there is no way that his sand was that slow. Before he was even a chunin, let alone kazekage, rock lee was only just fast enough to hit him after taking of his leg weights (which have been shown to be ridiculously heavy) and only making significant damage after opening a few gates. Also, gaara was quick enough to switch himself to a clone when lee blinked! Litteraly in the blink of an eye he evaded the primary lotus! IN ABOUT EPISODE 60! Even if he wants to hurt himself his sand will rush up to protect him. The guy actually asked what pain felt like and didn't feel it until he was about 12 even after a couple of A-rank missions. There is no way that toph could reach him so quilckly. I know h wasn't close to the ground but sand would rush from his gord or anything close to him to protect him and you clearly debuffed him. If he used sand tsunami or controlled toph she'd die and don't even get me started on that sand coffin stuff. Toph basically sand coffins gaara at the end so if that's worked on gaara why has toph got some sort of immunity to it???

Jason Dunne her stamina is limited and lower than Gaara's who fought for 3 days straight before, he can use more sand to overpower her control and just because she can see an attack doesn't mean she can react

Jason Dunne 1: Yes, she can sense what he does, but not instantly. The speed of which a vibration in the ground travels is 17,895 mph. Gaara has been proven to be able to fact to and attack the Raikage, which is lightning speed. Lightning = 224,000 mph. Therefore, Gaaras attack > Tophs sight. She would still see him in a spot only to have her head ripped off by an attack. 2: SHe DOES have a limited power source, her body. Benders require physical stamina to bend, as shown when she fatigues when holding up the castle. Gaara relies on spiritual energy, chakra, which is almost limitless 3: Gaara "bending" feats: A) Covering a whole field in sand generated by him in an instant. B) Condensing that sand so that it can crush a material many times the strength of steel. C) Making a flood of sand 100x the above. D) Catching up to a literal lightning quick opponent E) Blocking a nuke F) CATCHING TWO MOON SIZED ASTEROIDS G) Making a functioning human eyeball H) Creating life (clones) Toph: A)I throw rox. B) Holding up a medium sized castle If anything, this proves that Gaara should be able to overpower HER control, because he's better at "bending" than she is. Also knows Earth Style Relase, which ironically make him a better earth bender than she is :p 4: She loses by getting a kunai to the face

How is she anywhere near as strong or as fast as rock lee? Additionally she still feels impact and has no control over chakra so if garra berated her with sand bullets wouldn’t it just tear through stone and take her out especially since he can multitask and use other attacks to just fling her in the air or crush her feet (mind you if she jumps he can still counter that with just extending another piece of sand beneath her further knocking her into the air)

[@universeez6759]

It was explained in Gara's section that his sand is incredibly fast and can be changed greatly in it's size, shape and form. He has shown many times that he is well experienced and intelligent enough to learn counter measures and strategies. It also needs to be taken into account that Toph is very playful and young while Gara is more wise and patient. Gara has multiple huge and powerful techniques such as sand Tsunami and raining sand shuriken, to me and many other people it seems that it would be VERY hard to avoid things like that especially because Toph is blind and can only sense ground movement not air. And how can she sense the sand coming right at her at great speeds like faster than the speed of sound as it was mentioned before and still block it. She can only sense the ground and if she is using hearing to tell that the sand is coming right at her in THE AIR then that's very unlikely and doesn't make any sense. Gara can also use his sand to make himself fly and raise huge amounts of sand above him, Toph would be completely at a disadvantage when Gara does this and has no counter measures for it. Also the combat movement in Naruto is DRASTICALLY different compared to Avatar the Last Airbender, Toph can move around with the earth yes but what I mean is the speed and pace of the fight, Gara doesn't move fast but his attacks and defenses do, Toph is slower and isn't used to this speed while Gara is fighting people like Rock Lee, Sasuke and other really fast ninja. Gara's overall toolkit is much more versatile in attacks and defense and can Effectively hit Toph's blind spots (literally). Gara's absolute defense is much more stronger than any defense Toph has and if she even tries to come close to it Gara can create A LITERAL SAND EYE OUTSIDE TO SEE WHAT SHE IS DOING, like CMON DO YOU THINK GARA IS GOING TO LET HER COME CLOSE AND BEND THE SAND WHILE HE IS INSIDE like no he isn't. Toph probably won't have any access to metal so that's useless, she'll rely on the earth and that she has to use her limbs to bend BUT GARA DOESN'T, Gara can keep his distance and has much more deadlier techniques, that's a very key weakness that Gara can exploit very well, he can create diversions and capture a body part of hers with sand coffin, she can create turn that into rock instantly but what if he captures not her hand with sand coffin but her arm, this technique is very fast and she wont be able to bend it fast enough to save herself and her hand will not be touching the sand to be able to bend it anyway. This strategy would secure Gara an easy win because Toph would not be able to do anything about his fast movement and ranged attacks. Although it's not as strong as his sand barriers and absolute defense, Gara's sand amour is no push over as it can withstand many hits. Although it's not his strong point, Gara also got better in Taijutsu, his up close attacks and capabilities are better and can be used as an advantage if need be, Toph is not a good fighter in martial arts so Gara can use that, this is unlikely though because it's not necessary to win. Toph is also 12 YEAARS OLD she does not have the mental capacity, energy and experience to BEAT Gara, this dude has been fighting for his life and was much stronger at a younger age. AND IF ALL ELSE FAILS (VERY VERY VERY UNLIKELY) Gara can literally sink the sand and earth, as shown in the Avatar show, Toph struggled to fight her best in sand and prevent the earth to sink. Toph will have no chance in hitting Gara anyway and she'll never be able to get in close. There is absolutely no way Toph can win because of Gara's really fast automatic defenses and his powerful and fast attacks. I wasted a very long time constructing and writing a well thought out message explaining to thorough detail that Gara is the clear victor here. Do not take everything that Death battle states as a fact because in many of their videos the explanation of the battles and advantages and disadvantages don't make sense as shown in the ACTUAL BATTLE GARA IS JUST STANDING THERE THROWING SAND BALLS OVER AND OVER AND THEN JUST DIES. The way Gara battled in the video was very underwhelming and boring and shows how wrong they are. I have no problem with Death battle making the battle even at first but there is in now way you illustrate the battle that MUCH INTO TOPHS favor, Death battle puts so much effort into all their videos and I love them as well but this fight was just not good and was not up to the standard as others. This comment was basically meant summarize everything Gara has over Toph and to show how much stronger he is compared to her. I have watched both shows and like them very much, I have a lot of biased towards Gara I admit but I think I displayed very good reasoning to how Gara can defeat Toph. This was created out of pure salty discomfort and disbelief of mine and I just felt like giving a well made comment showing how wrong this battle outcome was and making myself more contented knowing that I am right. I have no problem with Death battle but some videos are not made as well and the production is not as good, this is a great KZbin channel with great entertainment ( I had an hour of free time and decided to do this on my lunch break, if you read this thanks and I hope you can come to an agreement with me!)

[@crynosinso8324]

I don't know much about Gaara so I'm not saying anything about him, and I'm not trying to start any debate or argument, I'm just giving my 2 cents.... Ok, just gonna say that Toph, in her prime, is able to bend sand, metal, and most other earth based substances. Based on the analysis, yes I do think that Gaara had more capabilities than Toph, but you have to give it to Toph. She's learned how to be extremely versatile even with just regular Earthbending, which in my opinion, is not a largely versatile type of bending on its own.

[@misterb4773]

My question is, if Toph sees with seismic sonar (feeling vibrations from whatever touches the ground), then how can she tell when an airborne projectile is incoming with the same precise she can detect ants, that actually touch the ground??? What's eveb more confusing is when they fight in the desert... knowing the loose sand interferes with Toph's seismic sight, how can she see comeone not just standing on sand, but flying on sand... over a desert?!?!

[@bendover4823]

She can't tell. They got that wrong.

[@drogan3645]

She can see flying rocks as seen in the episode the blind bandit and by the end of the series she was a very precise and skilled sand bender you can see that if you watch the first bit of the final episode

The only reason Toph was able to see Gaaras projectile attacks is because she can sense any bit of earth around her, so if Gaara used any other elemental ninjutsu wouldnt she have been unable to guard?

Regardless if she could see it, she would not have been fast enough to intercept it or dodge

[@Plystire]

@@Revshockwave Even if she COULD dodge, it's not like the sand is limited to a set trajectory like Toph throwing boulders is. But she wouldn't be able to dodge, or block, because Gaara is known to just overwhelm an opponent with sheer volume. Sand flows around whatever you're guarding with, burying you, and then "sand coffin" -- dead.

[@bigballs7911]

***** His attacks move faster than she can sense. Do you not comprehend?

[@ThatSamoanGuy]

Unless someone is willing to explain how Toph could beat Rock Lee, the fact remains that she couldn't beat Gaara. Lee moved faster than fully-trained adult ninjas could keep up with, and was punching Gaara's armor so hard that his muscles were tearing themselves apart...and he STILL lost. The armor cracked, but never broke off. Gaara wouldn't even need to use the armor anyway, since it's a backup plan in case someone gets past the sand shield. And the only ways of getting past the sand shield is either being fast enough to outrun it, or getting it wet so that it's slower and heavier. Toph can do neither. And even if she could sense where he was, sand clones and substitutions would totally confuse her, as it's a fighting style she's not used to. (awful convenient how DB didn't depict any use of clones or substitutions at all...you know, the techniques that even the KINDERGARDENERS in Naruto can do?)

[@karolnowak6423]

Rewatch that battle. Lee actually hit only his sand armour with Lotos (both first and the second), which was crushed for second time (it was the sand, which came from his guard (the container) itself - guard turned into sand), not actual Gaara, who escaped from second one while Lee lost control for a moment during his attack - even Kakashi explained that... If Gaara took direct hit from second one, he would have been seriously damaged, while he was not. And Lee was faster then the sand after losing his weights. And Toph does not have to make it slower or heavier - she can turn sand to stone (by compressing layers of sand from his armour) over which Gaara has zero control, while she has. That was his obvious weakness from the start.

[@prqi2910]

Toph is one of the weakest opponent gaara ever fought. But, she was the only one who can crush him in his own armor.

[@Joeyfm3210]

ScrewAttack! On top of the fact that you completely disregard the speed at which Gaara can move, you missed substitution Jutsu, Summoning Jutsu, Sand clones, Gaara's chakra limit ("Chakra Prowess: Born as a jinchūriki, Gaara gained Shukaku's immense reserves of chakra and stamina. His chakra was also noted by Kiba Inuzuka to be very strong. Thus, he is able to use many chakra-taxing sand-based techniques, sometimes in quick succession, before becoming exhausted. *Despite the removal of Shukaku from inside him, Gaara's chakra reserves remained just as powerful, as he was the only one of the Five Kage to show no signs of low chakra reserves throughout the entire Fourth Shinobi World War, even after using large-scale techniques*"), the strength of his sand ("Gaara can control its strength-level to steel-like quality or make it completely surround him in a defensive sphere of sand. While an effective defense, the shield can be overcome with extremely high-speed or sharp attacks"... She did not attack with "extremely high speed or sharp attacks, as in plural. Plus his sand can destroy Susano'os created by Madara. ), his ability to sense things touching any sand around him ("His sand can also be used as a sensing device: Gaara can detect when others come into contact with it, even from far away. The sensing of his sand is so great it was able to repeatedly find the disappearing Mū and the Second Mizukage's Giant Clam"), and finally his Taijutsu (hand to hand combat). Plus: "Gaara has also shown to be a highly analytical and very skilled tactician, being able to defeat the Second Mizukage by formulating a way to counter the Mizukage's exploding clone." Oh and: "Gaara can also insert his sand into an opponent's body through their open wounds, and use it to control and restrict their movement." He would just have to give Toph 1 open wound, then insert sand into her body, move the sand to her arms, and stop her arms from moving. No moving arms = No Earth bending. All of this was found just by going to the Narutopedia. Did you even go to Narutopedia, one of the primary sources for information on Naruto characters? Did you just skim it or something? Please redo this, because this is far from accurate. Even if they are from two entirely different universes, Gaara is still far superior to Toph in every way: abilities, speed, strength, durability, stamina, military/combat tactics/strategy, senses, etc. Not even sorry for the long comment. TL;DR version Gaara is faster than Toph. Gaara is stronger than Toph. Gaara has more stamina than Toph. Gaara has higher endurance than Toph. Gaara has similar sensing abilities to Toph. Gaara has far more abilities to use than Toph. Gaara is a better combatant/tactician than Toph. The incredibly low amount chakra you have perceived Gaara to have is lamentable. Edit: Oh, and last I knew, nobody in Avatar has "superhuman strength". They are all just ordinary people who can bend the elements. The thought that a punch by a human with normal physical strength would destroy Gaara's sand armor, when it can withstand blows from people with superhuman strength, including when Rock Lee opened the 5th Gate, and including blows from Madara's Susano'o, is completely ridiculous. Edit 2: *What everyone is forgetting to take into consideration is the fact that Gaara doesn't just have to fight with his sand but Toph is useless without being able to fight with her bending abilities. A punch from Toph would not even phase Gaara in the slightest, yet a punch from Gaara to Toph would easily break bones/sever muscles. He could also attack pressure points if he wants to. Only her bending would be able to harm him, but his cognition, speed, and reflexes would make dodging her attacks "just another story".* Edit 3: Some of Gaara's Feats I found. www.mangapanda.com/93-211-9/naruto/chapter-206.html www.mangapanda.com/93-220-14/naruto/chapter-215.html www.mangapanda.com/93-220-14/naruto/chapter-215.html www.mangapanda.com/93-220-18/naruto/chapter-215.html www.mangapanda.com/93-220-19/naruto/chapter-215.html www.mangapanda.com/93-220-20/naruto/chapter-215.html www.mangapanda.com/93-221-4/naruto/chapter-216.html www.mangapanda.com/93-221-5/naruto/chapter-216.html www.mangapanda.com/93-222-4/naruto/chapter-217.html www.mangapanda.com/93-222-7/naruto/chapter-217.html www.mangapanda.com/93-222-8/naruto/chapter-217.html www.mangapanda.com/naruto/560/16 www.mangapanda.com/naruto/561/3 www.mangapanda.com/naruto/561/4 www.mangapanda.com/naruto/563/10 www.mangapanda.com/naruto/577/10 www.mangapanda.com/naruto/588/5 www.mangapanda.com/naruto/658/10 www.mangapanda.com/naruto/660/5 www.mangapanda.com/naruto/660/14

I've seen every Naruto and Naruto Shippuden Episode up to date, and read all the manga. I've also watched all of Avatar: The Last Airbender, but I have not watched Legend of Korra yet. Though, considering in TLOK Toph is elderly, I would have to assume that she is at a condition lesser or equal to that of her younger self so the Toph from ATLA would be better anyway. Yet, none of the above should be necessary considering that Toph is only a regular human that can bend earthly materials, while ninjas from the Naruto universe are superhuman and have far more abilities than just manipulating earth.

[@Yevon]

you even said it your self - the sand sphere can be as dense as steal, but what you have lacked in understanding is that Toph can bend metal to that just below platinum, thus not giving him time to formulate a plan from his superior military tactics (which i don't deny he has) but you are only giving all the facts towards one character and the bare minimum to the other. - if you are going by his abilities at the end of the series ( not sure if it's finished as i'm not a huge fan of Naruto ) you will have to go by Toph's at the end of the Avatar series which can detect you regardless because she can feel the attacks coming as they happen through the earth its self from any distance (including any earth not touching the ground

[@plazasongsftw]

Blinded by money and fame, these guys dont care about us. they just want views

[@Joeyfm3210]

YU YEVON 1. What do you mean by "Below" platinum because Gold is above platinum on the periodic table of elements and ScrewAttack argued that she can bend Gold because it is metal. 2. Read my 3rd comment. 3. Being as dense/hard as steel does not make it steel. It's still sand, and the control of his own sand > Toph's ability to control Gaara's sand. 4. There are not many things about Toph: she can bend earthly materials including rock, sand, metal, mud etc and has the ability to sense using seismic waves. As I mentioned already, Gaara too has the ability to sense things that are touching any sand around him. Sure he can't sense things in air like Toph, but he can see them and dodge them. 5. As mentioned, and which I'm assuming you didn't read, Gaara just needs to wound Toph once and she's done because he can use his sand to restrict her movements. He doesn't even have to use his sand for that. Which leads to 6. He has superhuman speed, superhuman strength, superhuman cognition, he can use weapons, he can use ninjutsu other than just sand, he would definitely win in hand in hand to combat because Toph is only a human and Gaara is superhuman and is adept in taijutsu. What everyone is forgetting to take into consideration is the fact that Gaara doesn't just have to fight with his sand but Toph is useless without being able to fight with her bending abilities. A punch from Toph would not even phase Gaara in the slightest, yet a punch from Gaara to Toph would easily break bones/sever muscles. He could also attack pressure points if he wants to. Only her bending would be able to harm him, but his cognition, speed, and reflexes would make dodging her attacks "just another story". I can counter anything you say as well. The sad part is, all I had to do was repeat/rephrase what I already said because you apparently didn't read all of the information nor actually did any research on Gaara as I suggested. Even my TL;DR part proves that Gaara would win, yet none of it is about him using his sand other than the Edit.

This comment section is the real Death Battle

[@Nyrufa]

Gaara may have had the advantage in raw power, but Toph had versatility. Gaara only controls sand, where as Toph controls dirt, rock, sand and even metal. In fact, this was the premise for the King Bumi fight too. Toph is about precision and skill, while Bumi was about raw power (he could lift and throw entire buildings at people), and the fight was still a draw. Also, unlike Gaara, Toph does not seem to have a limited amount of time or energy she can manipulate the elements with. And as for people commenting about Gaara being able to change the density of the sand, you might recall that earlier, they said Toph can do the same thing with earth, and she can change sand into stone. In other words, anything Gaara did with his sand, Toph was able to reverse it.

[@Nyrufa]

***** You're wrong about Aang, though. The Avatar has the power to control all of the elements, which means he can counter any form of elemental jutsu. Also, while he's in the Avatar state, he has access to the combined power of every Avatar who has ever lived, meaning he becomes a god in mortal form. We've seen plenty of times in the series that when Aang goes Avatar and gets angry, he is insanely powerful, and that was just him as a child! I think what you meant to say was Korra would get beaten by Gaara. She was absolutely pathetic compared to Aang. She grew up in a time period where bending had become more practical and refined, while Aang lived in an era where bending was more about raw power. So while Korra was much older than Aang, she was also much weaker than him. Seriously, watch both series, you will never see Korra do anything close to Aang's level.

[@ClayDu]

Toph was actually never able to bend sand, as shown in the episodes featuring The Great Library. Gaara should've won.

[@k1tdragon5]

Jonah Scott It not that she can't bend sand, she simply cannot see well enough in sand to bend it effectively in battle since in the desert, everything to her looks fuzzy. Later in the series, the creators did show that her ability to work with sand is refined enough where she can replicate part of Ba Sing Se with very impressive detail. How well she is able to use sand in battle or how well she fight in a sandy environment such as the library episode is not showcased at all after that beach party they all held. Simply put it, you can't hit what you can't see. Library episode, she couldn't see the sand bender clear enough to effectively hit them. Afterward, as far as we know, she is only able to impressively build sand sculpture. That's it.

[@Nyrufa]

Jonah Scott Watch some more. During the final arc, Toph is clearly shown able to Sand Bend, saying that she's been working on it. With one stomp on the beach, she created a perfect replica of a city, complete with models of the citizens. Just one kick and she created that. She also turns the sand underneath her solid enough to stand on so she could stop the library from sinking.

She can control molten rock, metal, sand, mud, standard earth bending, she was even able to bend the mercury in Korra's body) IMO Toph wins Only disadvantage Toph has, is speed But her levels of stamina exceed Gaara imo

[@OverCooked10]

Levels of stamina? Garaa is basically superhuman while Toph is just a human. He undergoes superhuman levels of training throughout the entire anime. Yes he needs chakra to move sand, but that's makes his sand control that much stronger and gives him an edge over Toph. She may very well be able to control all those forms of earth. But we aren't talking about the quantity in which she can control but the quality. Not only does Garaa have more experience with bending sand but he can bend it on a larger scale. If this all came down to a tug a war then Garaa wins hands down. Just for the record naruto is nowhere near my favorite anime and I've watched every episode of The Last Airbender.

Gaara controls sand, and sand is made from earth, and Toph controls the earth element. If Toph's power to manipulate the sand is stronger than Gaara's then it would seem that Gaara's ability is rendered obsolete.

[@bigballs7911]

+Wicke Danneh It works the other way around too..any earth Toph throws at Gaara would be turned into more sand. Gaara is 100% the stronger manipulator of earth based on the sheer amount he can control at once alone.

[@jetskeeter69]

+Robert Perez But Gaara would need more chakra to control sand and to turn everything to sand, while toph who was trained when she was a kid and benders do not need a huge amount of chakra or needed a chakra to control them. So, toph would be unbeatable from gaara because she can bend the earth whenever and wherever she want to bend. Heck she can just make a small decent size mountain if she wants to.

[@bigballs7911]

@why??? lol speed is reaction(how fast you can react or block) movement/travel(how fast you can get from A to B) and attack/combat(how fast your attacks are) Toph has him beat in reaction and attack speed She is literally know for her reactions that’s what makes her such a potent earth bender. Because she can instantly react to motion especially earth motion she has a byakugan like advantage over gaara

I'm not partial to either win, but if they're using a combined toph from korra and avatar wouldn't it be fair to use a combined garra from the original series and shippuden? by giving toph ALL her abilities and taking away garra's doesn't that seem biased and one sided?

[@matthewlake2565]

they never gave Toph anything that she had from Korra, because she had already mastered metal bending in Avatar before the end of the show. The only thing she really gained in Korra is to see around the world through the spirit vines.

[@RayneyShark]

ahh okayI just kept reading people saying this was a combined toph

[@nathansimpson3261]

Yeah, it is a combined Toph (she doesn't get her metal whip-like tool until after ATLA), and they definitely didn't represent a complete End of Series Gaara. Even some of their researchers are baffled by this outcome, they do the research to ensure it's thorough and not bias, but Ben ultimately decides the outcome because he's the director. All things considered, there's undoubtedly something amiss with this Death Battle.

[@sigmaK9]

It IS one-sided. But it has nothing to do with ScrewAttack liking Toph more than Gaara. It's about Toph being a girl and Gaara being a boy. It's not proper for a guy to win a fight to the death against a girl. Guys are never allowed to win gender wars of any stripe, whether it's a sitcom, a romantic comedy, or a fight to the death. It just never happens. ScrewAttack HAD to make sure Toph would win because if they didn't, they'd have to face the wrath of the feminists and their mangina attack dogs. Soooo....ScrewAttack had no other option but to power Gaara down to make it more of a "fair" fight, you see.

[@mandospiegel8994]

Hum... Now that you mention it, this battle is a bit onesided. I never thought of it that way... Man, Ben must be really stuck up. Sure, letting Gaara have Shukaku isn't canon, but... This Toph is all canon Tophs combined. Thank you, commenters of this thread. Well, we can agree on one thing; This Death Battle was enjoyable as hell

[@joeytaylor1021]

Even 8 years later, the censored swearing at 14:40 always makes me laugh

[@Paytonzane]

I was rattling my head thinking "What voice is that, where do I know that Gaara from?" It's Christopher Gurrero, and that voice is exactly the voice he uses for Maxwell (of the Catholic Church) in Hellsing Ultimate Abridged.
