Loki Finally Confirmed Odin"s Real MCU Replacement Isn"t Thor

Summary

• Thor's predetermined destiny as the successor to Odin was relinquished as he passed on the role of king to Valkyrie, who now rules New Asgard.
• Loki's jealousy of Thor's destiny led him to search for his own throne, and in the Loki Season 2 finale, he becomes the all-powerful God of Stories.
• While Thor has proven himself worthy, he chooses not to be a king and instead finds his path, while Loki inherits a throne with even greater power and responsibility, making him his father's successor on a grander scale.

Thor was supposedly the successor to Odin as the leader of Asgard, but the season 2 finale of Loki confirmed it was always going to be a different character. Thor's predetermined destiny in the MCU was to inherit the throne of Asgard after his father, Odin. However, his irresponsible and reckless behavior led to the God of Thunder having to prove himself before taking on such a powerful role. Despite Thor proving himself worthy of the position, he elected to pass on the role of king to Valkyrie, who now rules over New Asgard on Earth.
Loki was jealous of Thor's destiny and was determined to find his own throne. He attacked Earth with the promise that Thanos would give him the planet to rule, but he was defeated and searched for his purpose elsewhere. The Loki Season 2 finale saw Loki finally realizing his glorious purpose by becoming the God of Stories, an all-powerful being who keeps the timelines alive and under control. While it wasn't Loki's intention, he has followed in his father's footsteps, and inherited a throne with even more power and responsibility.
