You know, rhat does make one wonder about -BEYOND- the game. What is gonna happen to Fujimaru at the end of the story? How would people react to someone like him/her? What about their parents or relatives if they still have any? What would an average doctor think if they saw all these injuries? What kind of mental state would Fujimaru have after everything is said and done and all but Mashu are gone? What if even Mashu is gone? Yeah, they know the Chaldea staff, what little remain of them, but lets face it, most of the people Fujimaru is close to right now are phantoms of history theyll likely never meet again... and they are kind of an existence similar but dissimilar to EMIYA: A silent Hero whose saved The World through several ordeals, yet is never remembered. Would Ritsuka Fujimaru classify as an Epic Hero who can call other Heroes to themself?

I vote for Fujimaru getting married to Mash at the end, and then living out a peaceful together in a little house next to the ocean or a lake.

I honestly don't see why not, personally i can see him become either a "Ruler" or "Savior" class servant, it would be dumb of gaia to let go of such a person as fujimaru. He has save human history 7 times, proceeded to summon servants in an environment which should of completely negated summoning, attacked and terminated 7 fake human histories, he has both allied and fought gods and even came into contact with an ultimate one and lived to tell the tale. Fujimaru is just beyond servant.

Unpopular opinion, but... I worry Ritsuka won't find happiness even if the world gets fixed. Considering accusations after restoring humanity for the first time, if things were to return to normal, both the UN and Mages Tower would have sights set for the crew. Not necessarily because of suspicions. Especially if they found out about breaking of at least one taboo of magecraft.

Personally, just like Mashu died in the end of Arc1 (but Cath Palug brought her back), I thought Gudako would die by the end of Arc2, but now that she survived ORT, anything is possible.
But yeah, the Mages Association/Clock Tower and whoever else would/will be annoying to deal with.
All in all, similar to "MisterJuice", as long as Gudako can survive the depression of parting with her Servants, marry Mashu and live a quiet life together (but my vision is them having a bakery, don't ask me why), I'll be satisfied.

If anything they'd probably be given a Sealing Designation due to how potent their ability as a master is. They're able to summon all 7 basic classes, 7 Extra classes, with three being Taboo, and are even able to materialize Threats of Humanity in controllable containers.
