I'm still salty that both Naruto and Karin didn't get any face to face interaction since they both are some of the last few Uzumaki alive and both of them are OBSESSED with Sasuke. They had one interaction which was after Sasuke betrayed Karin by stabbing her to kill Danzo and then Team 7 come to kill Sasuke but fail. Karin notices Naruto's bright and warm chakra and that's pretty much their only interaction.

Orochimaru doesnt just go around changing memories. He manipulates mentally/emotionally damaged children into wanting to do things for him. The same way he made his decision to get stronger and overcome death when he was orphaned as a small child himself.

It was always in Sasuke's character to help people up until late shippuden. He reactively jumped in the fire of haku to save naruto and he hated naruto.

Its not like he's this cold hearted evil villain that only helps himself

I think it does make sense that Sasuke saved Karin in the Chunin Exam. It is a part of Sasuke’s personality to save people, especially from bullies. He was traumatized by Itachi and that’s why he broke Zaku’S arms since he hurt Sakura and Sasuke asked Sakura who did this to you. People who hurt people represents Itachi to Sasuke. Sasuke also saved Naruto from Haku’s attacks because he didn’t want to live another situation where he would lose something that is or that has a resemblance to his family which he had lost by Itachi. He also beat up bullies in Idate Morino arc if you remember. Mafia people or whatever. He also saved a little girl that was playing with a balloon and the balloon fell down a pit. He didn’t know her neither. There are many other situations I could talk about where Sasuke saved somebody. But every time he did that made sense if you consider his trauma.

Speculation on why Karin Loves Sasuke Karin hates dark chakra because she was constantly being bitten by ninja on the brink of death that only saw her as tool. Those ninja would give off a dark chakra as they would bite into her skin without regard for her life even though she would heal hundreds of shinobi each day. This started when she was 6 and it went on her whole life within the Grass village. She would constantly try to make a connection with people in the Grass village, even though those same people are the reason for her mother's death, but no one would respond to her feelings. So when Sasuke saved her I can only assume that was the first time she was shown compassion and kindness without an ulterior motive since the passing of her mother. Plus, at that moment she was seen as a person instead of a tool. Just like Naruto, she didn't have anyone in her life to connect with as she was an Outsider within the village, so it would only make sense that the very rare moments of kindness within her life would be taken to heart. A good example of this is when Naruto would go hungry as a kid and Ichiraku Ramen would offer free Ramen for him until he became a ninja and started earing his own money. Also Karin thinks Sasuke is really hot. Just had to throw that in there 😁

Despite Orichmaru being a very mallace villian in part 1 I always forget of what Orichmaru was. Not only that ,but he did save a lot of kids from terrible backgrounds like kimimaro and Karin. Of course he did terrible stuff to a lot of them ,but he it was the things he said to me that stood out to me. Orochimaru to Kimimaro “Life has no meaning ,but with some interest you can find it” Orochimaru to Karin “if you join me I can reassure you will never be touched again”. If you notice a lot of orichmaru’s followers worshipped Orochimaru like some type of god. The only thing is Orochimaru wasn’t trying to be a god like Boro was to people. He legit showed them the reality of the world which is what I like. He may have been evil ,but he was always well written with a great back story. It was even shown and hinted by Sasuke that Orochimaru attacking the leaf was not on a whim. I wish we got to know the deep story of Orochimaru and what really happened. I really always found Orochimaru’s dynamic with Sasuke interesting. At first Orochimaru wants his body and wants to use his powers. In the war we kinda see Orochimaru gives up this dream and wants to see Sasuke’s wings (him flying). Than in Boruto we see Orichmaru really wanting to see Sasuke to Mitsuki. I always felt like after Orochimaru changed and decided his genes and dna binded him from conquering the world he felt as if Sasuke was like a trophy in a sense.

[@noahblevins9569]

Orochimaru wasnt motivated by malice often. He wanted to destroy the leaf, sure, but he also knew all about Danzo and the evil crap the leaf was doing that almost noone else knew about. The leaf had already set up a history of working alongside evil people and sending their shinobi to be slaughtered to gain power and influence. Orochimaru wanted to master every jutsu, and understand power. He wasnt nonstop creating sick and evil ways to harm people. His goal was a perfect body.

[@NY-Buddy]

​@@noahblevins9569no, his goal was to pass down all jutsu knowledge in 1 body. He cant get birth traits so he needed an Uchiha body (which is kinda retconned through the series and Boruto) so he really didn't. And he was hunted because the only way to use the reincarnation jutsu is to kill another host, which was forbidden.

[@Kat-ov9du]

I mean, if we're taking the anime as canon with Karin's story then you could easily explain it by the fact; she never had anyone but Orochimaru and his people to stick by in her life Orochimaru saved her from a life of being used by other people. sure he experimented on her but she was still willingly loyal to orochimaru which would indicate she was at last treated decently enough. Rose through the ranks and was appointed leader of the southern hideout. After orochimaru is dead; were does Karin have left to go? Her village? Her family? All she's known is living in the hidden grass which abused her and literally worked her mother to death, and Sasuke who shows up at an uncertain time in Karin's life with orochimaru being dead and offering her a place to belong. In some ways Sasuke offers Karin a new chance of some, albeit limited, freedom. So to me it'd make sense she'd attach herself unhealthily to the only other person outside of Orochimaru who ever admitted they wanted her around. Sure he ends up stabbing her, but even when breaking out of prison; she still has nothing outside except Sasuke and so when Sasuke does says sorry she forgives him. Because she literally has nothing else especially since Orochimaru is shown to be helping Sasuke now too, her entire 'family' / the only people who ever wanted her around are following him again. In turn, yeah idk why else she'd turn her back to him even if he tried to kill her when every person she knows / cares about is already siding with Sasuke. It'd be easier for her to forgive and continue to cling to him because in some way he still needed her, and Orochimaru still needed her. It's an unfortunate situation because Karin was never given a chance to really be anything outside of working for Orochimaru and in turn Sasuke because she probably would develop an untrustworthy attitude to the villages after her treatment and probably further when she'd find out why she was treated so poorly. Like, yeah cool naruto is accepted but Karin literally was going to be used until death by the villages and no one stopped them so how could she trust a village or any villagers to be safe with? To me it wouldn't matter if she saw sasuke or not in the forest of death, because she wouldn't have attached herself to him originally and i doubt it's why she joined him to begin with either since it's not rlly what we're shown in the anime or manga? continued on that she could also see his change of chakra in the war after she breaks out of prison as a way that he genuinely is sorry as well since it wouldnt have been filled with the same hatred furthering her ability to forgive him because she knows he isnt lying.

[@orianefaton1885]

Huh, no. Sakura fell in love with Sasuke without knowing Ino also loved him. But, when she found out Ino also loved Sasuke, she distanced herself from Ino. I tend to see it as Sakura actually wanting Ino to be serious about it. We saw that in their fight, Ino was holding back against Sakura until SHE took her headband to put it on her forehead, then only did Ino do the same. Sakura didn't want to "win" against Ino because Ino wasn't giving her all. After all, it is said Sakura has a pretty big competitive spirit. Winning something because the other side was holding back is clearly not pleasing. Imagine the reaction of early Naruto if he had won against Sasuke either because Sasuke was actually sick or because for a reason or another he wasn't at full strenght. In a moment Naruto want Sasuke to give his all. He would not like it. At all. (Sakura had surely a similar view on the matter. And, since Ino was holding back because they are friends then the only way to make Ino serious is by not being friends. They still very much care about each other, so this isn't unlikely)

Lion's Barrage being used during her flashback of being saved might add more evidence to Orochimaru messing with her memories. Sasuke revealed this technique in the preliminaries which Orochimaru under disguise watched.

[@tronellwilson772]

She wasn’t there when he fought deidara and he wasn’t struggling with danzo

[@isaiahcarter8848]

I personally love sasuke, he’s one of the best written characters in Naruto or anime as a whole in my opinion. He’s realistic and human, he’s experienced so much, that has warped his view on the world and that is why I think he’s so well written

[@tjepic5256]

Yes also he shoots fire and lightning 😂

[@gaiusmanus7959]

I disagree but only because I think he's unbelievable, like imo the fact that he remains an asshole sociopath even up to the point where hes willing to kill his best friend after everything he and team seven go through is ridiculous, I understand what he went through as a child has a big affect on him but after so long and so much growth as a decent human through his interaction with everyone it's hard to believe he would abandon them all for vengeance, like I think it would've made more sense for him to ask atleast Kakashi for help or consult with him, that's why I disagree.

[@isaiahcarter8848]

@Raijin I would look up swagkages video dissecting sasuke, you have to look at him less straightforward to understand his character, sasuke is more of an introvert, he isn't like naruto needing them to be strong, and because he's an introvert he's nkt going to outright state his thoughts to anyone or the reader

[@gaiusmanus7959]

@@isaiahcarter8848 okay i will do that, though I will be honest idk if I can br convinced that what he did can make any sense to me, but that's just my opinion. 👍

[@florenceokhajaguan2558]

Yes. I also believe he is the most realistic character in the whole series. Naruto somehow forgave the villagers who have hated him his whole life, he tried to bring back Sasuke because of what exactly, friendship, also I have watched Naruto several times and I still don't get how Naruto was able to befriend Kurama Sakura continues to be with a man who repeatedly tried to kill her

[@danielrobinson940]

You should do a video of why paper bombs are the most OP thing in Naruto.

[@reydeoliviera5922]

Reading this title and wondering "who hasn't?" 😅🤣 shii even Madara gave him a chance on their first encounter🤣🤣🤣

[@woahtherecowboyitwasajoke8366]

I think this is cool af. But an interesting thing I thought of is that when orochimaru altered memories in both cases he only made them forget information, instead of creating new memories from nothing.

[@AngryRJL]

Poor Karin's back since she carried sasuke

[@newenergyexperience434]

Been waiting for this one

[@kainenwilliams2337]

Never thought of it that way, but it's so much more believable than Sasuke smiling at a girl! 😂

[@josipgizdic7085]

Orochimau is like Amado but Amado knows a lot abaout Otsutsuki while Orochimaru knows from histry and myths.

[@CheapRubbers]

“Like a medkit in Fortnite” 😭😂

[@misaligned6818]

I love your videos!!! I can never get enough knowledge about Naruto history

[@edocursedmark2693]

Orochimaru didnt tell them to follow sasuke they were all just fellow students

[@brandonruffin9055]

Yay, another nc hammer video

[@dallyhicks7973]

I really like this guy but the only thing I don’t like is that he hates Sasuke. Sasuke is one of my favorite characters

[@justzeus5395]

Love your video like always!! Can we get a Fugaku hokage video please!!

[@pharaohkai1]

Still waiting on the Naruto plot counter video

[@blitzsey]

Like I said you will see me everywhere and will like sasuke

[@Momosonii399]

Karin love sasuke because she knows that he’s better then her

[@itzdcx]

He also messed with kabuto memories

[@kilikinatoo]

This makes much more sense when you know the story of Naruto. Love the breakdown!

[@joeyfrost5248]

Ngl, I want some kind of arc or spin-off based on Karin. I hope we see more of her in Boruto, at least

[@chasemangold6321]

It’s been a crappy day already but seeing this video notification made it a little better😅

[@reddragonclan3095]

Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura split up near the end of the chunin exams to look for a heaven scroll. So it’s feasible that during this time of brief separation, Karin was a lone and didn’t pose a threat to Sasuke also her scroll was the opposite one he needed at the time. So it makes sense he fought the bear and left Karin without “ripping her fucking arms off” because he literally didn’t have time for that shit because his team needed a heaven scroll before the conclusion of the chunin exams. Bro how did you miss this? I know you don’t see it happen in the series but so many events namely the ones surrounding Sasuke and Orochimaru are given contexts in the flashbacks of Shippuden.
