if kishimoto knew dick shit anything about writing he would have 1- made hinata hokage, after finding confidence in herself during the invasion of konoha arc and realizing she was strong enough to fight for herself; she comes from a preexistent status of power in the hyuuga clan but is also intimately familiar with the unjust practices of the shinobi system, the parallels between the hyuuga branch family and the uchiha clan shouldnt have been ignored
2- sakura/ino and hinata/tenten the good actual endgame couples
3- madara should have died when gai opened his final gate. it would have been a great and satisfying plot twists, and as sad as it would have been if gai had truly died, he would have been immortalized as a hero who died protecting the people important to him, which he would have wanted; it also would have made sense because madara spent like 100 years learning to become invincible to every single form of jutsu but forgot about punches
