A little bit late, sorry 😅
Sooooooooooo guys, I read a non SasuKarin post about the reasons she loves him, I commented and the author of the post respond and while I was giving a answer to the person something came up in my mind 🤯
The post itself you guys can find in the hashtag, btw
So, everyone in this fandom agrees that Karin loved him firts in here ↓
And everyone in this fandom agrees with the idea that Karin and Sasuke spend some time together in the hide out somewhere in the middle of the classic and shippuden. For record I'm not talking about something romantic, I mean, like living together in the same place.
Why? Because of what was written in her databook
So, based on this information Karin has a lot of time to know him and his clan. Looking at the story from this perspective, we can conclude that Karin somehow discovered his past, and why he is with Orochimaru and the whole thing of stealing Sasuke's body, in fact, I believe that it was through him that she has her first lessons about the curse mark, and conversely, I believe that Sasuke must have witnessed some experiments that they made on her.
Well, the ponit in here is her sensory abilities...
She can sense chakra in long distances and she is able to tell how many shinobis are in an area with precision, however, when it comes to Sasuke, we learn that her abilities are beyond that.
She can literally sense the person's essence based on their chakra, the density, even the temperature of it.
So this is basically how she sees the world and how she connects with the people around her... Is her persepction of everything.
She fell in love with him not only because he saved her in that florest, but on top of that it was through her perception of who Sasuke Uchiha is, because of who he was before his fall into darkness.
I wonder how his chakra felt like for Karin when they very first meet, because for me, Sasuke was always empathetic and a sweet person, even with his grumpiness, and I believe Karin always managed to see that... someone beyond his pretty face.
That's it, love ya guys 💖
