^ .......if that happened, I think I would hope that Amon becomes the new protagonist.

But I think you missed a lot if you think that the "real Kaneki" is an amoral sociopath. The story has repeatedly and explicitly made a point that Kaneki's core value is that he is Compassionate. He is someone with the potential to act as a bridge between the two worlds, because he is the only person that understands both. His ability to understand, relate to, and empathize with people is the most important trait of his character.

Arima explicitly states that the portion of his brain dealing with Empathy is highly developed. No matter what incarnation of Kaneki has existed, the defining trait has been how he loves people.
