Heya Luna, you know, you recently answered one of my Asks and mentioned something about Kishi revealing that Sarada is actually SasuKarin's biological baby or she's a clone of SasuKarin and then adopted by Sakura. {I mean let's face it — she literally looks nothing like Sakura; she has bad eyesight like Karin but suspiciously not like Sakura, and bad eyesight is hereditary (I would know, my brother and I both have bad eyesight and we got that from our mom 😒); she looks like Karin even without the glasses, etc.}
Not gonna lie, that makes me curious: let's say that Karin is Sarada's real mother. If this ends up being true, that just makes me wonder why would Karin willingly give her up to Sakura? I'm assuming it's to give her a better life in Konoha than Orochimaru's hideouts, but Idk, for some reason I just can't see Karin wanting to part from her daughter like that. If she really is Sarada's mother, I would think she'd want to possibly move to Konoha (Sasuke's birthplace) and raise her there herself. Although, then of course, there's the goddamn Sakura issue... god knows how Sakura would react seeing SasuKarin with their baby — she'd try to kill herself until Sasuke-kun dumped Karin or something; we all know she's literally crazy enough to do something drastic like that for Sasuke-kun, she'd make a scene and it would be so embarrassingly bad.
So then I go to your second theory, that Sarada is a clone of SasuKarin and adopted by Sakura. That one I feel like I can believe a bit more, but that still leaves the question of why would Karin willingly give her up to Sakura? Probably the safety issue like I mentioned before, raising her in Konoha is better than in Orochimaru's hideouts, but then we'd have to ask: would Sakura seriously want to raise a baby that isn't hers and Sasuke-kun? Knowing how legitimately crazy she is for Sasuke-kun and how badly she reacts literally any time he says something remotely mean to her, even if it's ridiculously minuscule...
Ugh, I actually drove myself a little nuts trying to make sense of those theories 😝. Believe me, I'd much rather that Sarada is SasuKarin's kid somehow, because as much as I don't like her, she still deserves a better mother than an abusive bitch like Sakura. And her brief interactions with Karin thus far have clearly shown that she's way more comfortable around Karin than Sakura.
But TL;DR the reason why I brought this up with you is to ask you: of those two theories, which do you think is more likely to be the case *IF* Kishi really does reveal it to be true? Sarada being a SasuKarin biological kid, or being a SasuKarin clone?
PS I originally meant to send this as an Ask, but it got way too long. Think of this as an extended Ask 😅
