'''The Overthere''' is a place visited in the second half of Chapter 7 of ''Super Paper Mario''. It is essentially the opposite of [[The Underwhere]], and is the land where people who lived sinless lives spend their afterlife. It is ruled by [[Grambi]]. While The Underwhere is clearly based on the {{wp|Greek underworld}}, The Overthere bears more resemblance to {{wp|Heaven}}, rather than the {{wp|Elysium|Elysian Fields}} of Greek mythology: it is a land of clouds, and its residents are the angelic [[Nimbi]]s, who speak in pseudo-Elizabethan English (reminiscent of the language found in the {{wp|Authorized King James Version|King James Bible}}). The only way to reach The Overthere is via the [[Overthere Stair]], a series of clouds and [[jump-over cloud]]s leading up from [[Underwhere Road]]. According to [[The InterNed]], the music in The Overthere and the Overthere Stair is simply titled "Overthere Stair". There is an [[Itty Bits]] shop in The Overthere, located near the Rainbow Bridge. Its most notable item in stock is the [[Hot Sauce]], and it also sells [[Hot Dog (item)|Hot Dog]]s. | '''The Overthere''' is a place visited in the second half of Chapter 7 of ''Super Paper Mario''.

In Sector 5, there is a horizontally moving Overvator, activated with a red Switch Block. To the far right is a shrine containing a door and an army of 3D Skellobits and Spiky Skellobits. There is a [[Shooting Star (item)|Shooting Star]] on top of the shrine. The door leads to Sector 8, containing some floating pillars, [[Boomerang Bro.|Boomerang Bros.]], a Slow Flower, and a Nimbi playing dead. There is another door behind the shrine in Sector 5, leading to Sector 7 and accessed via 3D. In Sector 7, the heroes find Rebbi battling some Skellobits. After helping defeat the assailants, Rebbi gives the heroes his [[Red Orb]]. Also in Sector 7 is a large chest far below, containing a Nimbi apparently practicing an escape act. The Nimbi gives the heroes an [[Ultra Shroom Shake]]. | In Sector 5, there is a horizontally moving Overvator, activated with a red Switch Block.

To the far left of Sector 5 is some more clouds, a Skellobit and Skellobomber and a door leading to Sector 6. In Sector 6, there are some pillars and ? Blocks, one of which contains a [[Mushroom]]. By [[flip]]ping, Mario finds some clouds leading to another area, filled with blocks and various types of Skellobit, as well as a [[Mega Star]]. At the end of this stretch is another bridge of clouds, leading back to the other side of the main area, where the heroes find a bathroom stall. The person inside asks if the Skellobits are gone and then asks the player's name, to which they can answer Mario, Grambi or a monster.

The person inside asks if the Skellobits are gone and then asks the player's name, to which they can answer Mario, Peach, Bowser, Luigi (depending on the current player character), Grambi, or a monster. If the player claims to be Grambi or any of the playable characters, the person assumes that they are a monster trying to trick them. If the player says that they are a monster, the person will realizes that no monster would admit who they were and comes out, revealing himself to be Yebbi, who gives them a [[Yellow Orb]]. | ||
To find Blubi, the heroes return to Sector 2, where they saved Sunbi. The area contains several pillars, Skellobombers, [[Skellobait]]s and a [[Cursya]]. The pillar to the farthest right is actually a pipe, leading to an underground room containing a [[Gigabite]]. Upon the Gigabite's defeat, a chest containing [[Cooking Disk]] PU will appear. Back in Sector 2, there is a ? Block containing [[Pal Pill]]s is above the pipe. The player ascends some clouds, finding another Skellobomber and some blocks containing a [[Super Mushroom|Super Shroom]] and a [[Ghoul Shroom]]. At the top, Blubi is found frozen. Upon being freed by Bowser, Blubi realizes that he has lost his memory, which will only return if the heroes have spoken to Whibbi. Upon remembering who he is, Blubi yields the [[Blue Orb]]. | To find Blubi, the heroes return to Sector 2, where they saved Sunbi.
