What parallels are you even talking about? To ishhin x masaki? if that's what you mean then holy shit, do I even need to explain why using another pairing to justify yours is such a retarded move? Let alone one who is completely different in context of both relationships? Isshin chose to sacrifice his old life to stay with Masaki, something Ichigo nor Rukia did. Rukia decided to stay in SS because that's where she belongs and wants to be, Ichigo didn't came to drag her back to the world of the living because he was in love with her, he wanted to save her and repay her for granting him the ability to finally protect not just his family and friends, but also the spirits he had been seeing since he was a child, those who Ichigo with his kindness talks to and comfort them yet he was powerless to save when they disappeared leaving behind pools of blood after they were killed by hollows, it was thanks to that he had been able to move on from the trauma of his mother's death, she "changed" his world that way, by giving him his powers so he could fulfill his role as a protector, nothing about it had to do with romantic feelings between them or hinted at a potential romance. Ichigo and Rukia have a special relationship, just not the one IchiRukis wanted. And before you even say "why isn't his relationship with Orihime written better?" I'll say this >>280741332
