The Netherworld (冥界 Meikai, lit. "Realm of the Dead"), also known as the Spirit World (霊界 Reikai)[1], is supposedly the land where ghosts and souls reside after death. The location was first revealed in the second interview.
General Information[edit | edit source]
The Netherworld is one of the few realms outside of Mugenri which are directly accessible from it[2], likely as it is specifically the word of the afterlife for Mugenri's residents. Save for a few exceptions, one's soul will get led to the Netherworld to be judged for 49 days, where after receiving its due punishment, shall proceed to its next life via reincarnation.[3]. The Netherworld is ruled over by a master, who processes and deals with the souls of the dead.[4]
Appearances[edit | edit source]
Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle[edit | edit source]
While the Netherworld did not make a direct appearance in the story of Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle, it was mentioned as where Chouki's soul went after taking their own life, and where they made a deal with the master of the world to remain in the living world as a ghost.[4]
Additional Information[edit | edit source]
- The Netherworld was referenced in the pre-dated game Emergency Everyday: When Shinkuu turned into a vengeful spirit, he astral-projected himself and latch on to Big Boss. This saved him from going to the Netherworld.[5]
