* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: During his fight against Orochimaru, Hiruzen shows why he has held the position of Hokage as long as he did, and his showings are much more impressive than in canon, as here, he uses a unique application of three of the five basic elements plus Yin and Yang in tandem with the Shadow Clone jutsu and uses a powerful collaboration jutsu with Enma. And unlike in canon, Hiruzen’s efforts manage to result in Orochimaru’s death.

* TookALevelInIdealism: Karin, to an extent. Given the loss of her mother and working as a spy for Orochimaru, she was fairly cynical (though she masked it from others) until Naruto and the treatment she got gradually allowed her to have more hope for the future with him.

Added DiffLines:

* SchmuckBait: Karin's thoughts on her teammates plan. To clarify, she's basically playing DamselInDistress during the Chuunin Exams in the Forest of Death, where everyone was competing to claim a scroll. To that end, her teammates riled up a bear to chase after her. No one with common sense would try to rescue her, otherwise they'd risk losing their scroll. Cue Naruto jumping in with a bunch of clones.

* EasilyForgiven: Naruto largely forgives Karin for originally trying to betray him, mostly because she didn't go through with it and he's that nice. The Hokage and the Village Elders were ultimately left debating on the subject and (at Danzo's recommendation) settled for just leaving her under a probationary period in the village since her talents are useful and playing nice meant Naruto was more likely to remain loyal.
--> '''Danzo:''' "If the talk of her being a natural-born chakra sensor is true, we can use her sensory abilities to track down otherwise difficult targets. And as long as she remains in our custody and is seen being treated adequately, the Jinchuuriki will remain within our grasp for showing her mercy and a fading clan can be retained should we be unable to undo the blood-lock on those masks."



* InLoveWithTheMark: Karin was largely supposed to lure Naruto out of the village to be captured by Orochimaru and Kabuto. The month spent getting him ready for the Finals left her falling in love with him, despite knowing the consequences of failure.

--> '''Koharu:''' "Only because she was inexperienced and young, allowing her emotions reach that point so quickly that it compromised her judgment. Had Orochimaru trained her towards shutting off her heart for the sake of the mission, I have no doubt that she could have left the village with both the young man and the relics retrieved from that forgotten temple. It was a stroke of luck that we can't count on again."


Added DiffLines:

* MoralPragmatist: Danzo's approach to everything so far in the story. He has Karin handled with kid gloves because she was more useful alive than dead, and wanted Orochimaru killed because he was a liability at that point.


Added DiffLines:

* RewardedAsATraitorDeserves: Kabuto and the Sound Four make it clear that Karin would be subjected to a FateWorseThanDeath if she got caught after she betrayed them.

* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Naruto's reaction every time he snaps out of a Nine-Tailed Fox fueled rage, due to the fact that he usually ends up nearly hurting someone by accident. The first time he nearly killed Sakura, and the second he nearly killed Karin.

!This work contains examples of:

* FemmeFataleSpy: [[PlayingWithATrope Played with.]] Because Karin was working for Orochimaru, the goal was largely to lure Naruto away from the village and so she pitched this idea to her team from Hidden Grass as an excuse to stay behind after they lost the preliminaries. However, Karin herself could sense when she was being watched due to her Mind's Eye and Kakashi preemptively warned her against trying to get information from Naruto, so she never bothered trying to.
* ForWantOfANail: The story occurs from when Naruto saves Karin during the Chunin Exams, rather than Sasuke.
* InLoveWithTheMark: Karin was largely supposed to lure Naruto out of the village to be captured by Orochimaru and Kabuto. The month spent getting him ready for the Finals left her falling in love with him, despite knowing the consequences of failure.
* MakeThemRot: Exposure to the Nine-Tailed Fox's chakra cloak, which is composed of corrupted Yang Chakra, results in organic material being corroded and rotting.
* UnexpectedInheritance: The Nine Masked Beast from the Uzumaki Storage Temple.
* UnstoppableRage: Naruto hits it when he takes on too many tails worth of the Nine-Tailed Fox's chakra.
