A SHORT REFLECTION ON 631, SASUKARIN-WISE
Even without Karin around, I couldn’t help but think this chapter helped make a statement, SK-wise. My two cents:
All in all, I just hope this chapter taught a lesson to those who were downplaying the SasuKarin reunion claiming that:
It was rushed, therefore Kishi doesn’t give a crap and it’s meaningless!
Evidently, an event being rushed has nothing to do with its importance anymore. It was rushed because Kishi is packing in a lot of things at once because there are things he wants to get to. He obviously wants to end the manga asap rather than stalling again. This chapter is another clear example of it: we had been building up to Sasuke’s reunion with Team 7 and Konoha for years and years and yet it was dealt with very swiftly in just a couple of pages. And it had humor to boot, as well. We’ll definitely see more of it later of course (and the same thing applies to SK): but the point is right now Kishi is not into making tear-jerker reunions, but to deliver the stuff he has been setting-up and moving the story along.
Sasuke apologized to Karin on a whim, half-assed and meaningless!
Not only did he actually react to seeing her with more than a “…” and an acknowledgment, which was what he gave this chapter to Sakura and the Rookie, but he gave her an apology on sight. Obviously, the fact that Karin came in yelling bloody murder was quite the incentive (lol) but Kishi’s writer intent shines through nonetheless, IMO. Yami at Ice&Spice worded this quite well, here.
Karin’s feelings for Sasuke are comic relief!
Kishi went and straight-away made sure that we knew she is still into him for a reason. Moreover, Sasuke did not keep a poker-face around her. She broke his cool facade without even trying. Even in this chapter, Sasuke was pretty poker-faced all throughout, nothing fazed him at all. So the fact that Karin did faze him is really promising to tell as well~
Never forget, folks:

I’d say waiting for Karin to make her own entrance should (hopefully) be more than worth it haha
