Basically is like that, is like asking in Naruto in the rescue Sasuke arc that instead of Naruto reaching and fighting it would had been Neeji instead, why…well, because I like even better Neeji, or in Bleach Soul Society arc, in the moment Ichigo was about to reach Rukia to save her, not wanting him to be rescuing her, rather it was supposed to be Hitsu-kun, because well, I dont find Ichigo to be a good principal character.!
