This was originally conceived as a one shot that I've had in the back of my mind for a very very long time, but then as I began typing again it made me realize that there was so much more to tell here.
Synopsis: The world is recovering from the devastation of The Fourth Great Ninja War, and Naruto enters a new phase in his life with new challenges ahead as he is accompanied by his teammate Sakura Haruno, and together a they grow and become even more in-sync as team.. Perhaps even on a deeper understanding beyond friendship.

One significant change I would personally make for a live action Naruto series is make Tsunade the inspiration for Sakura in wanting to be a kunoichi, and maybe this could be something that is talked about amongst the girls.... Like a passing conversation from Ino to Sakura and those tales gives her the motivation...
The reason she would want to be a kunoichi most of all is to help those in need, and the leave the romance aspect to a high minimal focus.
That would be me though.

Kirisuna is so popular that it became DLC it an entirely separate series (Tales of Arise). Nobody but the most ardent Naruto fanboys gives a crap about Sasuke and Sakura (which is why the SS manga failed miserably).
The beautiful thing I love about Kirisuna is that that they didn't take the story waiting to become a couple... it happened during the very first arc of the series, and what's beautiful is seeing how Reki Kawahara (at least Post - Fairy Dance arc) focused on how their lives are after becoming a couple and its something wish many other writers would do!
Naruto fanboys are just too stuck in sand ignoring what writers do to execute a beautiful love story sub plot.

And I'm sorry, but there's no way that poll can ever taken seriously. NaruHina and SasuSaku ranking higher than Twiyor and Kirisuna is an absolute joke. Especially when even the series itself has taken cracks at NaruHina by pointing that Hinata is an incompetent mother by having Naruto insult her for abandoning their kids, to Toneri straight-out saying to Boruto that Hinata was a consolation prize for his father.
Higher than Kirisuna??? What!!
That's definitely a joke!

JeanKasa - Attack on Titan
I never really talked about it a whole lot whenever the manga was ongoing back in 2013, but looking at the final season and letting my thoughts marinate on it... I liked the idea of Jean and Mikasa becoming a couple in Attack on Titan, and honestly I'm happy that she found happiness with a guy who cares about her!

The problem with kishimoto trying to base his family life on naruto is that naruto is a character that can be in a 1000 places at once so he has no exuse not to spend time with his kids and instead makes him look like a horrible father that doesn't want to spend time with his kids

I know what you mean. If he took a break, it'd ease his heart and mind. It shows the sad reality of the manga industry at times.
Also, the final page of Chapter 700 is also a nice parallel to the mural drawing of Minato when he sealed Kurama into Naruto to stop his Obito-induced rampage.
I would definitely agree with you on that, and as far as the final page of Chapter 700 goes...
That is the real beauty and essence of what it represents because in a way it's like the story coming full circle, you end the story in the same way it ended.
It's told like a legendary tale via Minato stopping Kurama, and it ends with a new legendary tale via Naruto & Kurama joining forces to stop Ten Tails!
I was rewatching Naruto when I came across a speech by Itachi, in which he says that Sasuke is like a blank canvas and that the right person can influence him. I started thinking that Sasuke represents Masashi Kishimoto as a mangaka, and Naruto is his dream of being a mangaka. Itachi could be his editor, Kosuke Yahagi, who guided him towards success, but at one point left him. Sakura symbolizes his wife, who had a difficult relationship with him as a mangaka (Sasuke) and a great relationship when he dreamed of being a mangaka (Naruto). In the end, he showed his frustration with the mangaka life by using Naruto as Hokage, who is busy with bureaucratic work and away from his family
You know, that is honestly an interesting interpretation and it really wouldn't surprise me if that is exactly how Masashi views himself through these characters in the story. It is common knowledge that he wanted to represent Naruto in context that was very dear to his own life with Naruto as Hokage in correlating to Masashi living his life as a Mangaka. How it took away time from his own family and kids, and he wanted showcase how important that was through Naruto.
Which.... I understand given how Naruto is as a character it doesn't exactly fit how a lot of people have viewed his character and how we know him to be in the series.
I've given some thought into this whole scenario too for a long time, and I see why Masashi didn't want to view Naruto as like the perfect fairy tale parent we've all envisioned him too be. In a sense bring in the real world circumstances to showcase how he is as a character when he's an adult which.... how you were as a kid and a teenager isn't exactly the same as how you are as an adult.
For a lot of people who read fantasy series like Naruto... him being represented in this light isn't exactly what a lot of people would agree with as it reminds them of how things are handled in real life. It create that disconnect for them where they wanna find a way of escapism for Naruto where they live the perfect happy fairy tale life and when you throw scenarios like how Kishi showcased it in the series.
Knowing how Masashi views Naruto's adult life and how he wanted to channel his own personal view as a mangaka into Naruto's life as Hokage. It's one of those aspects of both Masashi and Naruto strived for their personal lifelong dreams.
Masashi wanting to become a Mangaka, and Naruto wanting to be Hokage, and through the next generations showcase the harsh reality of what the downsides of what it's like when they achieve their goal.
That's also regardless of whether he ended up with Sakura, or Hinata. The only major difference I could see with Sakura is that she'd go to his office and try and talk some sense into him, but again..... through the lenses of Masashi's writing he would showcase Naruto's stubbornness and showcasing his importance of Hokage in the village over his family.

Doesn't help that Kishi was dealing with depression due to his dad dying, which doesn't help either with what Studio Pierrot and his editor at the time did with telling him all those falsehoods about Hinata, and how he was ready to call it quits as is. Which is what sucks BIG TIME.
The biggest factor comes from the death of Kenji Kishimoto (Masashi's father) early in 2014, and honestly a 3 month break at least could've been more than enough to give him more than enough time to properly flesh out at the very least the last 3 & a half volumes.
Regardless of who was canon at the end -> that to me is irrelevant in this conversation personally.
I'm more so referring to that it would've given Masashi proper time to grieve, but also give him the chance to think of Madara could've been taken out in a satisfying way at the very least by the end of Volume 70. Then the last 20 chapters in my opinion could've easily been dedicated to The Naruto vs Sasuke fight, and have a great conclusive ending.
This might just be me, but I do like that the final page of the series was this:
