HOMAGE TO SASUKE’S EXPRESSIONS WHEN KARIN’S LIFE WAS IN DANGER
Because they’re always a sight to behold.
Three out of three times, Sasuke, who was in this state, was the one to immediately notice the danger Karin was in.

He was also the only one to react to it:

Notice how, in that last panel, Sasuke is actually turning toward Karin so swiftly that he freed himself from Juugo’s hold.
And speaking about Juugo. Juugo lays the logic down to Sasuke (Karin was done for, the fire could consume them too, they had to run), but Sasuke won’t bulge.
Notice how Juugo tries to drag him away, but Sasuke simply won’t let him.

He outright refuses to abandon Karin. At the prize of risking his, Suigetsu’s and Juugo’s lives.
Then calls her name in his mind while making THIS face:

Actually manages to do what he, for all intents and purposes, believed was impossible:

And when Sasuke and Juugo were arguing?

Unlike Juugo’s refusal, Sasuke’s yell of “Wait, Juugo!” was bolded. To highlight just how passionate he was about saving her, much like how the motion lines in every single panel highlight the urgency of the situation.
A situation we’re basically seeing from Sasuke’s POV.
And then there’s even this. And this is all without even bringing up the context of c619.
So, honestly, and with all due respect, those who claim Sasuke ‘never cared about Karin’ or ‘cared very little about her’ due to his betrayal of her during the Danzou fight, pretty much missed the point of the Kage Summit arc.
Kishimoto would never showcase Sasuke “entering true darkness” through Sasuke stabbing someone he did not care a lot for. Fiction just does not work that way.
