Sarada has to be Karin's daughter, Kishi isn't trolling.

[mohdzarif]

Some still are having doubts about Sarada being Karin's child, which I believe most of them are dissapointed Sasusaku fans :lol. Making alternative theories and saying that Kishi is trolling.

I truly believe that Sarada is indeed Karin's child. An anon on Youtube says it perfectly, I copy-pasted his post here:

The theme of this Gaiden is bonds and relationships going beyond genetics. This chapter was dialogue heavy just to establish that. Sakura immediately disagrees with what Shin says about parenting being about genetics and that that isn't what being a parent is about.

Forget about appeasing a fandom, for the sake of basic storytelling, Sarada has to be Karin's child. There is no point to all this dialogue, all this time wasted, if Sarada is not the birth child of Karin.

Furthermore, there is no lesson to be learned for Sarada if she just ends up being Sakura's birth child. At the end of this chapter, Sarada throws a fit over not being Sakura's birth child and doesn't even acknowledge her as her mother. Which is completely wrong because a mother goes beyond genetics. Who raises you is your parent. Which is the theme that has been established in this very chapter.

Once again, if Sakura is the biological mother, then there is nothing to learn for Sarada. There is no life lesson, no coming of age, nothing would change, their lives would go back to as they were at the beginning of the Gaiden and there would be no point to this Gaiden at all.

I agree and understand 100% about the theme of bonds and relationships going beyond genetics. However, judging by Kishi's writing style (read his work for 700 chapters+ and you pick up on it) I'd say Sakura is the mother but Karin had some involvement in Sarada's birth and genetics (the usual rules of genetics doesn't apply in NarutoVerse). It really doesn't look like its Karin. Sarada's behaviour regardless brings up the theme Kishi's exploring.

 

[Shanks]

She is a kid and i don't think she really wanted to say those things about Sakura ! The odd thing about Sarada is she has Sakura's slang and behavior may be i think Kishi is just playing around .

"the usual rules of genetics doesn't apply in NarutoVerse"

Do you have any example to back up this claim?

What do you think about Karin keeping Sarada's umbilical cord? What's the point of keeping it if she's not Sarada's mother? Is there any other logical explanation that makes sense of why Sarada's umbilical cord is with Karin?

I don't believe in "Kishi's writing style" because he sometimes can be unpredictable. Look at what happened during the Final Arc, for instance.

She is a kid and i don't think she really wanted to say those things about Sakura ! The odd thing about Sarada is she has Sakura's slang and behavior may be i think Kishi is just playing around .

Slang and behavior are not hereditary, you learn from the people close to you when you're a kid.

Would YOU be happy if someone told you YOUR parents are not your real parents? Blood relationship is the most sacred and true relationship whether the parents are scumbags or angels! You will always be your "biological parents's son/daughter! Lots of people would care and love a child more than their parents but it doesn't make them their real parents!

 

[Natsu Shazneel]

So true. I already know she is Karin's kid. Kishi made it clear last chapter. Its just a few who are in a denial phase. Thinking its a troll.

 

[Dannie]

That Anon raises a good point. There is no need for this back and forth if the child is Sakura's.

 

[Aquaglow]

The only "lesson" Kishi is implying here to NOT cheat your spouse and lie to your children! Nothing more nothing less!

 

[Natsu Shazneel]

Exactly. There is no need for this gaiden if this about Sakura.

Edit: Also lets assume Sarada is really Sakura's biological kid. How would you explain her appearence that is like Karin's? Like it litterally would make no sense if Sarada is considered Sakura's kid. When she looks like a mixture of Karin and Sasuke. Now if Karin was related to Sasuke or Sakura it would make sense. But clearly both of them look nothing like Karin. Than how the **** can you say she is Sasuke's and Sakura's kid?

 

[Saikyokami]

That sort of thing happens when you grow up around said person.

Yea, this should be pretty obvious at this point, I already included this message in one of my previous comments just like a few others, however it's definitely not as straight forward as some might think.

Even though I think what Kishi is doing is horrible and disrespectful to the characters involved and the fans, I will let go of my personal preferences for the time being.

Kishi's assistant lied because he had to, otherwise the plot of Gaiden would be spoiled, the same goes with all of Kishi's post-ending interviews, content, and character descriptions. This is the malicious truth.

The theme of this Gaiden is bonds and relationships going beyond genetics. This chapter was dialogue heavy just to further establish that. Sakura immediately disagrees with what Shin says about parenting being about genetics and that that isn't what being a parent is about.

There is no point to all this dialogue, all this time wasted, if Sarada is not related to Karin. Furthermore, there is no lesson to be learned for Sarada if she just ends up being Sakura's birth child.

There is no life lesson, their lives would go back to as they were at the beginning of the Gaiden and there would be no point.

Now all I can hope for is for the way this all went down and the reason behind this is properly justified, and does not involve cheating, for Sakura, Sasuke, and Sarada's sake. My current guess is that Karin helped Sasuke and Sakura by being a surrogate of somekind because Sakura couldn't conceive.

The bold, even though Sarada might share Karin's DNA, she was still raised by Sakura who is married to Sasuke. They form a family while Karin is in one of Oro's hideouts minding her own business. This implies that Karin either helped them conceive because Sakura was unable to, or Sarada got her DNA by other unconventional means.

 

[loj]

Why would she give Sarada to Sakura then?

Doesn't make sense...

The strand that Suigetsu tested is likely to be an umbilical cord. Heard that it's a tradition or something for Japanese to keep their child's umbilical cord.

That can really explain why the DNAs exactly match because both the strand and the tiny scrap from Sarada's mouth is from the same person, Sarada!

Sakura can't be a surrogate mother. If Karin was just donating her egg, then why is it that she keeps the umbilical cord with her? It's not her who gave birth to Sarada. She won't care about Sarada at all, will an egg donor care at all about her "real child"?

Exactly. There is no need for this gaiden if this about Sakura.

I would be f**kin pissed if Kishi really is trolling and turn this around making Sakura to really be the real mother. XD

Dunno, probably Sakura couldn't conceive and Sasuke took Sarada for Sakura to take care of. While Karin was probably "too busy" with "her mission" at Oro's hideout, just like how Sasuke is too busy with his mission to be a responsible dad, not visiting your family even once lol.

Slang and behavior are not hereditary, you learn from the people close to you when you're a kid.

Raised a valid point here . Never said she has hereditary with behavior . Like i said kishi is just playing around ! If it turns out to be Karin she should ask herself whether she should be with her mother or a person who raised her since a toddler .

But i think it will be blot on Sasuke's character if he was fooling around with Karin ! Most of them want to defend Sasuke's integrity rather than Sakura here .

 

[Lana Del Taka]

And I love how SS fans say Karin doesn't care about Sarada enough to raise her. Maybe she didn't want her to be raised in a dangerous hideout, not only that there Still the threat of the Kaguya clones and shit. She most likely gave Sarada to Sakura so she can have a better life.

I think the only explanation that makes sense and that doesn't put a stain on any character is probably that Sarada was a test-tube baby.

Perhaps, Sasuke wanted her child to have strong genes, so he asked Karin to help, but not through ***.

Or perhaps, Sarada is just another product of "Oro's experiment", he wanted to see the outcome of a child born from an Uchiha and an Uzumaki, I dunno.

Maybe. If she doesn't care she won't be keeping the umbilical cord I guess.

Edit: And apparently Karin in the picture has the same glasses as Sarada.

Hard to predict at the moment it could be possible she was Oro experiment .

 

[ANiMUS]

Most ppl know this is a troll. Don't waste your time
Sarada is simply judging things by appearance and I definitely believe that there is a reason that Sarada has Karin's DNA, but Sakura is the one that gave birth to Sarada

I said she either donated an egg or became the surrogate herself, which would mean that she is the one who gave birth to her.

It really doesn't look like its Karin. Sarada's behaviour regardless brings up the theme Kishi's exploring.

I was looking at Kishi's writing style, and came to the conclusion that Karin is indeed the one who birthed Sarada. He makes the answer to the mysteries so obvious that we assume something else is up (prime example being the mystery of Tobi).
