Hello everyone I'm new but I've been a fan of Naruto for YEARS so HERE IS MY VISION OF HOW NARUTO SHOULD'VE TURNED OUT THESE ARE COMPLETELY 100% MY THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS WHICH WOULD HAVE KEPT THE SERIES LUSTER AND WOULD'VE BEEN SO MUCH BETTER AND STILL BE POPULAR AND THRIVE OKAY LET'S BEGIN!!!!
In my vision of Naruto I feel that Naruto and Sakura should've married and started a family, this would've gave things a better turn out and totally what the fans wanted in the begining and I must admit I was one of the fans who was rooting for Sasuke and Sakura but was more hoping for Naruto and Sakura, you see their children would've had SO MUCH POTENTIAL and a more interesting character design and better powers ideas to add to the concept, I believe that Naruto and Sakura's daughter would been a breathe of fresh air to the series and would definitely share characteristics of both her parents giving her a more unique flair than Sarada's character
Naruto and Sakura's daughter would've had Naruto's whiskers, a peach tone color hair (yellow + pink) with Naruto's blue eyes, (at a point in time of the Naruto series even Kishi was considering making Naruto and Sakura a canon pairing but he wavered to the fans who wanted Sakura to end up with Sasuke) Kishi's own words to a fan about Naruto and Sakura being a pair Kishi said "pink and yellow collide" there was even a manga panel of Hokage Naruto with his and Sakura's daughter, she even had peach colored hair with Naruto's signature smile, I tried to find it but I couldn't find it, sorry; so Naruto and Sakura's daughter would've possessed Sakura strength but definitely had Naruto's passion and most of his personality as well as his signature closed eye smile, even if they had a son as well or only a daughter, this offspring character would've had great potential, plus in my opinion, Naruto would've been much happier with Sakura the girl who was his actual love interest from the beginning so yeah, and honestly Sasuke would've been a lot happier too, that's why he puts on his ninja shoes and runs away from his life now every chance he gets, you can literally see the pain on his face when he has dinner with the family he never wanted and how he feels that he settled hard in his head, poor Sasuke and then he can't wait to get up and run back to his second home far away from Sakura and Sarada, it's a out of sight of mind situation because he didn't even remember/recognize his own kid,
That's why I still respect Kishi he's awesome at trolling but Kishi feels bad for Sasuke, that's why he drew Sasuke another home and makes sure he created an excuse as to why Sasuke's never home with Sakura and Sarada, so Sakura is basically a single parent and I'm not even going to go there about Naruto and Hinata's family, basically from what I see, no one is happy, again that's my opinion, you can have your own opinion though :3
As for Hinata, I would definitely see her marrying Kiba for he shares similarities to Naruto in both personality and looks so I feel they would have been a better match in my opinion, if Kishi was going towards having Naruto and Sakura be canon
Now Sasuke is a lost cause in my opinion though I do not see him as all hope being lost the thing is I know Sasuke could've ended up with a whole new character introduced to the series maybe a Shinobi from another village definitely someone from outside of the leaf, because again his purpose is to carry out his bloodline so I could see him going that route instead of the Gaara loner route where he just adopts
Anyway Sasuke's offspring would've absolutely be another powerful Uchiha character added to the series whether it be a male or female but I would lean towards a male offspring with either Sasuke's dark hair or maybe another Uchiha with brown hair but definitely a powerful Uchiha and someone Sasuke can be closer with I feel he needs a son honestly, who's either like him or just basically a son who he can train non stop
Now for TenTen I see TenTen's whole character was pushed to the side and there was never really any light shined on her character so to make up for that if Kishi decided to still kill off Neji then TenTen could've married a character no one saw coming just like how Choji married a character no one thought he would be matched up with, I see the same being for TenTen honestly
Maybe a villain character turned good like one of the male characters in the start of the chunin exams or the Sasuke leaves the leaf village arc, but he ends up marrying TenTen and they both have a super OP cool character who pleases the fanbase and sheds light on TenTen's character, actually making her a popular character finally since she was shoved to the side, which was sad
So these are my opinions, and what are your thoughts on this and basically what are your own unique thoughts/vision of how the series could've turned out?
UPDATE: even though my post got trolled, I still feel that this is worth saying...
There was a time when I was watching one of Naruto's closings, it had Sakura by the stars, a shooting star appears; forgive me my memory is a little blurry but she was by the stars, I do remember that so I guess this was an indication that she was making a wish, being hopeful and that hope/wish leaning towards Sasuke...you see and this proves and should be taken as a life lesson...we can wish for what we want but is what we think we want really going to make us happy? In this case with Sakura, she did get what desperately she wanted but at a cost, can Sakura really sit back, reflect on her life and truly say she is happy, she chose to ignore the signs and red flags from the beginning, it's like putting a bandaid on a bruise for an example
That bruise is not going to go away at that moment...the bandaid is just covering up the problem, smh...
She knew deep down the love she desperately craved from a man who was toxic to her from the very beginning, who showed abuse and neglect from when they were just kids and the neglect still being there even well into their adulthood even now that she had desperately gotten her wish *sighs*
These women in Naruto, Sakura and Hinata hounded these men who's feelings towards them weren't necessarily reciprocated, especially from the beginning, now I'm not saying everything should be a double standard but coming from my point of view, Sakura and Naruto's relationship definitely did blossom and could've blossomed even more smh lol but Sakura be it as it may chose to continue her fixation on Sasuke, pushing her oblivious feelings for Naruto to the side, now she has every right to do as she pleases and she did, yes.
Naruto from the beginning was always there for her, always the shoulder for her to cry on, always the one she can depend on, he always defended her, stood up for her, took her under his wing like a swan would do for it's chicks, Sakura was Naruto's chick in a sense, he shielded and protected her, and supported her dreams, fought to make her dreams a reality, and then set her free once her biggest dream was obtained, that is true love.
Sakura chose a rinestone over a diamond, the diamond was shining bright in her face, lighting up her darkest days and even her brightest skies...Naruto may not have fit into her idealistic tendencies at first but he made up for it and even surpassed it in his growth, and she saw that but again be careful what you wish for, you just might get it, but stop and think, would it truly make you happy.
Love is pure and transcends through time, especially when it's true, love does not judge, love does not walk away, love doesn't give up, love, especially true love is beautiful, it is the diamond shining in the darkest night, it always brings hope, and sheds light.
