Gaki

this is Garo, years before he "became" Garo. during this time, he didn't hae an actual name and was called Gaki (japanese for "brat") by everyone, including his parents. it would be only years later, when he gets lost in Shikkotsu Forest, that he gets the name "Garo"
he made that kimono himself. from rags he found (or stole) in the slums. the blood? well, he had to work for daddy's income, and sometimes that meant getting rid of some people.
the stitches are from a kinjutsu named Jiongu (Earth Grudge Fear) which basically turns the user in a living rag doll. kakuzu placed this kinjutsu in Gaki when the latter was five, so that synchronization would go much smoother.

Garo and this picture belong to me.

Comments are HIGHLY appreciated =w=
