WARNING: The following contains spoilers for The Mandalorian, "Chapter 16: The Rescue," streaming now on Disney+.

Star Wars: The Mandalorian ended Season 2 with many climactic moments, such as Luke Skywalker carving through Dark Troopers and Din Djarin parting ways with Grogu. However, one plot point that could hold huge ramifications for the greater Star Wars universe is the Darksaber, which Din won fair and square. The Darksaber makes Din the rightful heir to the throne of Mandalore -- a seat that Bo-Katan desperately wants.

While some speculate that Bo-Katan and Din will fight for the Darksaber, with Din already offering the weapon to Bo-Katan, it is possible that Season 3 might show Din that he is a better leader for the new Mandalore. In fact, it is possible that The Mandalorian might end with Din retaining his hold of the Darksaber in order to bring Mandalore back to its former glory.

Does Bo-Katan Deserve To Restore the Mandalorian Homeworld?

It is possible that Bo-Katan, despite wanting the Darksaber, might know that she does not deserve to wield it. In Star Wars Rebels, Bo-Katan is given the Darksaber by Sabine. Despite her reluctance to accept it, given how it needs to be earned and not given, Bo-Katan accepts it anyway. Then, within years after holding it, she loses it, with Moff Gideon defeating her and taking it.

This means that, by Bo-Katan's own admission, she never truly earned the Darksaber since she never earned the weapon in combat. Presumably, she realizes this. While this means she will have to fight Din for the Darksaber now that he has it, it also means that there is truly no reason why Bo-Katan is more deserving of ruling Mandalore than Din; however, she wants to rule Mandalore more than Din.

This has fans wondering if Bo-Katan is worthy enough to revive Mandalore after losing the Darksaber, and did her failure to retain the Darksaber leave her stable enough to continue as a leader. Bo-Katan is a far more aggressive and violent character in The Mandalorian than she was in Rebels, which possibly indicates that defeat has fundamentally pushed her down a darker path.

Bo-Katan and Din Djarin Have Prejudices, But One Overcame Them

A strong leader needs to be a leader for all their people, which means divorcing themselves from prejudices, something Din does throughout The Mandalorian. However, Bo-Katan is defined by her prejudices, which means any Mandalore she creates will have systemic prejudice built into it.

Bo-Katan dismisses all the Mandalorians she deems fanatics (Din and the Watch) and those unworthy of the Mandalorian title (Boba Fett). If Mandalore is to be restored, it cannot have this sort of prejudice, especially considering that many of her appearance feature her dismissing or criticizing the Mandalorians who want her help.

This stands in direct opposition to Din, who overcomes his prejudices throughout the series. In the first season, Din is biased against droids because droids destroyed his homeworld. However, he overcomes this thanks to his bond with IG-11. On top of that, while Din questions the beliefs of the Watch over the course of The Mandalorian's second season, he does not seem to condescend to them ever.

Din Djarin Is a Better Leader, and Bo-Katan May Know This

Din does not want to rule Mandalore, but throughout The Mandalorian, he uses diplomacy to bring very different people together. His teams consist of people directly opposed to one another. He gets Cara Dune to work with former members of the Empire, from Kuiil to Migs Mayfield, despite Cara being a Rebellion shock trooper. He unites the people of Mos Pelgo with the Tusken Raiders, establishing permanent peace between them. Despite Boba Fett and Bo-Katan's animosity toward one another, he even unites them under a common cause. Plus, he even turns to multiple Jedi, the direct enemy of his people, just to give Grogu a chance at happiness.

Based on this, it's clear the better leader is the person who unites people under one cause and is open to change, not the person who believes they are entitled to rule. It is obvious that Din is better suited to rule Mandalore than Bo-Katan. In fact, it might even be possible that Bo-Katan, in refusing to accept the Darksaber, realizes this too.

Created by Jon Favreau, The Mandalorian stars Pedro Pascal, Gina Carano, Carl Weathers and Giancarlo Esposito. Season 2 is now streaming on Disney+.
