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, Blubbi, Yebbi). Nimbis can be compared to angels.

The only way to reach The Overthere is via the Overthere Stair, a series of clouds and Jump-Over Clouds leading up from Underwhere Road.

Trivia

  • The Nimbis in The Overthere speak in pseudo-Elizabethan, like in the King James Bible. However, the dialect the Nimbis speak appear simply to replace common pronouns such as "I" or "you" with Elizabethan equivalents (mine, thou). Also, the suffix -eth seems randomly tacked to certain verbs. (i.e. "thou-knowest-what" instead of "you-know-what")
  • A bar that serves milk beneath Flopside is named, "The Overthere." Whether this is a coincidence or not is unknown.
