Basically, Aizen only peripherally meets a few parts of this trope that many villains often meet because they\'re such widespread concepts, some of which is subject to ExamplesAreNotArguable issues. He has no angel connections (except for a brief transformation just before his brief demonic transformation), and even when he is associated with the idea of evil being opposed to a god, it\'s only to downgrade him as a lesser evil compared to Quincies.

The closest thing this story has to a SatanicArchetype is Yhwach, not Aizen. Even Aizen refused to deal with Yhwach.

The short of it is, Aizen only peripherally meets parts of this trope - parts that many, many villains who aren\'t this trope also meet because they\'re widespread aspects, and at least one of those is very arguable (which creates its own problems for troping). He has no angel connections, and even when he is associated with the idea of evil being opposed to a god, he is immediately downgraded as a lesser threat than the Quincies in that very regard.

Yhwach, on the other hand, has conquered the whole of Hueco Mundo and either kills or recruits every hollow his forces encounter. Outside Aizen\'s domain, Hueco Mundo pretty much ignored what went on there. Yhwach, however, has turned the whole of Hueco Mundo on its head, to the point where there seem to be resistence movements trying to form.

Aizen\'s reason for wanting to replace the Spirit King are completely mysterious, and what he would gain is unstated given the Spirit King\'s isolation, so attempting to associate it with any trope is trying to second-guess what the author is doing. The author hasn\'t revealed what\'s going on yet.
to:
It\\\'s impossible to trope Aizen\\\'s reason for opposing the Spirit King because the author hasn\\\'t revealed Aizen\\\'s motives nor genuinely explained what the Spirit King or his purpose in the story is.

The story doesn\'t have a consensus on what the Spirit King is. While the Royal Guard did equate replacing him as attempting to supplant a god, they - like everyone else - never talk about his relationship to shinigami, or any other being or world. Urahara indicates he\'s a lynchpin of all the worlds, which removes the shinigami as having some kind of special relationship with him because that makes the Spirit King connected to every world and every being in all those worlds. The shinigami also don\'t talk about him as a ruler, they actually describe him as a figurehead king who is completely isolated from the daily running of society and takes no part in it, and the Royal Guard confirm the isolation. Therefore, what Aizen would gain by replacing the Spirit King is a mystery - claiming it would give him material control or rulership ignores the fact the Spirit King appears to have none.

The story doesn\\\'t have a consensus on what the Spirit King is. The Royal Guard mentioned Aizen attempting to supplant God, but they didn\\\'t claim shinigami came from the Spirit King. Urahara described him as a lynchpin (there are four known worlds with beings in all those worlds, so the shinigami is given no special association here). The shinigami themselves call him a figurehead king, someone who is isolated from the daily running of society and plays no part in it. The Royal Guard confirm the isolation - even they don\\\'t casually meet him, despite being allowed to live in his realm.
