So many people try to describe Karin as good or bad, pure or selfish, lustful of loving, caring or selfish, smart or needy, and all the while i just can’t help but feel that so many people can’t see how NONE of the things above are true,
Because they are ALL correct.
Karin is a paradox, she is a series of contrasting traits and skills and they are what makes her so wonderful. You can’t just look at the positive part of her character, because there is too much darkness and badness to ignore. But if you only look at her undesirable traits then you miss the point of her character. She is so incredibly complicated and multi-layered, I feel that too many people ignore what they don’t wish to see, and as a result, lose sight of who she actually is.
Unlike other females, who are viewed from different sides. ( a.k.a. “she’s selfless and cute”, “no, she’s ugly and self-centered”) Karin was meant to be viewed from both, but simultaneously. Even just looking at her you can see the contrast in her design. From the professional uniform, she mixes with sexy shorts and stockings. To the strait, long, and combed side of her hair compared to the fluffy, messy, and short another side of hair: Karin was designed to be a paradox.
Her aloof attitude
To her passion
Unlike other characters who were meant to be viewed one way, but due to iffy writing can be viewed many ways, Karin was MEANT to be this complicated.
She is straight-foreword about her feeling
And she is secretive

She is lust-driven
and in pure, selfless love
She is weak enough to be defeated with a single kick
And strong enough to destroy an invincible monster even the Gokage and their armies couldn’t touch
She enters a scene with anger and harsh vengence
Yet melts when an apology is given
She can look like a man
And the ultimate bombshell
She can be uncaring
And sympathetic
And cruel
And put other above herself
AND SO, SO. MUCH. MORE. THAT YOU COULD NEVER FIT INTO A SINGLE POST, OR STATEMENT, OR ESSAY, OR PARAGRAPH. THE ABSOLUTE WORST THING YOU COULD DO WHEN TALKING ABOUT HER IS SIMPLIFY HER AND IGNORE EVERYTHING THAT SHE IS.
I made this before chapter 710 came out and now it’s even more true.
