I don't care if shes a damsel, although t is interesting on a feminist perspective that two major arcs revolved around saving one of the two females leads.

Also, given her abilities, I do not believe power-wise that she was out of her league. She was able to heal and at times resurrect by rejecting events. She attack also rejected things around Tsubaki if she had the resolve but she loved piece so she didn't have resolve unless in the most dire, immediate circumstances like when she thought she would lose Tatsuki. She was able to heal the Arrancar so there no reason she wouldn't be able to attack them if she really resolved to harm them.

Orihime was there like a doctor, didn't want to do harm, only help. Her abilities were never in question (except maybe in the last arc when it was convenient) it was always her intentions that caused her trouble.
