Mario investigating a cry for help.
The Overthere is a place visited in the later half of Chapter 7 of Super Paper Mario; it seems to be the Mario version of Heaven, as some of The Underwhere's residents say people may go there depending on how many sins they've commited.
The Overthere is inhabited by Nimbis, all of whose names end in -bi. Interestingly, there appears to be a schematic to naming Nimbis, be it days of the week (Monbi, Tuebi, etc.), months (Janbi, Febbi, etc.) or even colors. (Rebbi, Blubi, Yellobi). Nimbis can be compared to angels.
The only way to reach The Overthere is via the Overthere Stair, a series of clouds leading up from Underwhere Road.
Trivia
- The Nimbis in The Overthere speak in pseudo-old English, like in the King James Bible. However, the dialect the Nimbis speak appear simply to replace common pronouns such as "I" or "you" with old English equivalents (mine, thou). Also, the suffix -eth seems randomly tacked to certain verbs. (i.e. "thou-knowest-what" instead of "you-know-what")
- The Nimbis heads have the appearance of the heads of Canadian citizens as portrayed in the animated television series, South Park.
