Willct wrote: Kishimoto is the lord of trolls. However he confirmed at the Naruto exhibition in Japan that Sakura is Saradas mother There is more to being a mother than being biologically related. When people asked if Sakura was Sarada's mother he was correct in saying that Sakura is the mother. But that doesn't mean Karin isn't the birth mother. They aren't contradictory. He can truthfully say that Sakura is Sarada's mother because she raised Sarada as her own. People seem to be missing the message Kishi is trying to teach here.

Unless Kishi came out and said Sakura is the birth mother then the entire thing means nothing in the long scheme of things.
