Don't know why I bother cos this thread will soon be filled with hate and we'll probably find out soon anyway

As he has written 700+ chapters, you can make judgements from Kishi's writing style

He doesn't actually hate Sakura (or any of his characters) though he confesses to not being good with female character - we see this throughout (not dissing, he's made many complex and different characters). He has also stated that Sasuke is a very pure character, which we see, meaning he's not likely to cheat. Throughout Naruto, despite being dead popular, Sasuke shows no sexual interest in anyone, but he does show a special care (love) for Sakura.
Not sure if it's legit but I believe Kishi wanted Sasuke to go back to Konoha after killing Itachi, but was stopped by the editors, which would make Karin a minor character. She is also currently quite irrelevant.
Interviews state Kishi wants Sakura to be happy and SasuSaku confirmed since part 1. He draws because he enjoys it, not because it's his job, and he doesn't hate his characters.

Kishi is questioning and exploring the idea of parentage, which has always been a major theme in Naruto. Look especially at last chapter. He could be using Karin as the biological mother and Sakura raising Sarada to emphasize this and take it further.

Or since it's Kishi (master of surprises and plot - twists), Hinata could be the mother. (Ok not a chance, it is safe to assume it's between Karin and Sakura).
I think there's something that we haven't been told or are missing. Judging by his writing style and Gaiden, I am personally leaning towards Sakura.

Feel free to fill this thread with comments promising it's one of them and then find out that it's the other next week

Kishi making Sakura the mommy was a propoganda troll to get the attention of desperate people.

Kishi doesn't hate Sakura, but his writing makes it seem like he does.

2 ways this can turn out....

-Kishi's just trolling and this whole Karin thing is a red herring.

-Or Karin is the real bio mom but Sakura has the right to be called Sarada's "mom" due to her actually taking care of her. Basically, the message here is that love>genes.

No one but the biological parents have any "rights" over the child whether they are good or bad! Thats a fact! If Kishi is implying this otherwise than thats bullshit!!!

Meh everyone who wasn't insane knew it was gonna be NH and SS from day one, I think he made Karin the biological mother(via genes and stuff-experiments!) and Sakura is the adoptive one because the point imo he is trying to make is that the one who raises you is your 'real' one and genes/lineage don't mean a thing, because l**e! and bonds! It will also how shin will get tnj'd.

This is a shonen manga, lo*e>everything, deal with it.

I'm 99% sure it's the second option.
Chocho rejects her parents, and Shin's treating his own flesh like trash. Kishimoto is going for a blood related means jack as long as you have family love type of lesson

I feel Sakura is better mother than Karin if it turns out to be her stepmother . I still believe Salad is Sakura's Daughter there is no doubt about it !

I don't know how any woman would feel comfortable raising another child her husband had with someone else unless they really wanted to be a mother.

So Sakura might not care if Sarada isn't genetically hers if that's the case.
