Line 29:
Gaara's initial attire, along with the costumes of his siblings, was difficult for Kishimoto to draw on a weekly basis. Because of this, Kishimoto gave the three of them simpler costumes towards the end of Part I; Gaara received an outfit with an upright collar. In addition to being easier to draw, it was used to demonstrate the change in relationship between Gaara and Naruto following their previous fight. Kishimoto cites ''[[The Matrix]]'', one of his favorite movies, as an inspiration for Gaara's new costume, and he considers it to be his favorite costume of the three siblings.<ref name="ArtBook127">{{cite book|last=Kishimoto|first=Masashi|title=Uzumaki: The Art of Naruto|year=2007|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=978-1-4215-1407-9|page=127}}</ref> For Part II, there was a scene where an antagonist Deidara was sitting on Gaara's body.

In the Japanese version of ''Naruto''{{'}}s animated versions [[Akira Ishida]] voices Gaara. [[Liam O'Brien]] takes his place for the English dub. The Western actor, before being selected to voice Gaara, had already heard about the series' popularity. O'Brien went for an early audition in [[Los Angeles]] with hopes of doing Gaara's voice but failed it. However, O'Brien later went through another audition and got Gaara's role.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mcmbuzz.com/blog/2012/10/27/interview-with-liam-obrien-voice-of-gaara-juushiro-ukitake-war-asura-and-more/|title=Interview with Liam O'Brien: Voice of Gaara, Juushiro Ukitake, War, Asura and more|publisher=Mcmbuzz|date=October 27, 2012|access-date=February 7, 2018|archive-date=March 13, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190313053843/http://www.mcmbuzz.com/blog/2012/10/27/interview-with-liam-obrien-voice-of-gaara-juushiro-ukitake-war-asura-and-more/|url-status=dead}}</ref>
