I understand that Hell is considered a realm of infinite extension, but then it is said that the Wailing Wall is the "end" of Hell. Does having a limit mean that it is no longer infinite, or is there another background context? (sorry if the images are out of order)

Does the existence of the number 1 mean infinite natural numbers cannot exist?

Under vswiki policy it does not. Using cardinal system there is infinite points between 0 and 1. But the limit/end to that infinity is still 0 or 1. So infinity having an end us feasible

Obviously not, but it was said that the underworld has a "beginning" and is made up of 4 spheres, 8 prisons, 3 valleys and 10 pits. And these structures make up the underworld. Although the scan again says that it is infinite, it seems strange to me that it has a beginning and an end, and a finite amount of structures make up its structure, unless the 4 spheres, 8 prisons, etc., are structures of infinite size, although it does not seem very feasible that the protagonists have traveled an infinite distance.

I understand, but didn't the protagonists travel the distance of the Underworld? Since they started their journey from the beginning of the Underworld, and then arrived at the end of it

Just in general the hades arc was rushed. Kurumada wanted to end it quickly that is why in the later part of the hades arc had some non sensical stuff

The way the underworld is depicted and described makes it out to be a finitely large material object within an infinite/endless expanse.
Not that it matters how big the UW is, it’s redundant to the current scaling of any character.

If there is a beginning and an end it is obviously not infinite, i don't know exactly how this ended up happening here at vsbtles that the underworld is infinite having a literal end.

I don't know why you continue to be toxic, since i'm telling the truth here.

actually, this isn’t strictly true. In math, you could have a circle with a center point and an edge(which is implied by it being a circle), with a radius that isn’t finite. It’s conceptually possible, although it would technically be a line so I’ve heard.
- 7,375

The prisons are of infinite size, as they contain infinite souls. Since the cosmology has infinite worlds, infinite people die. This is supported by prisons being stated to be space-times in of themselves. There’s just so many sinners that you need universes to torture them all.
As I explained above, an infinite structure could conceptually have both a start and end, the distance between just needs to be infinite.
Finally, yeah Seiya and the gang basically crossed an infinite distance. It’s just an outlier. Kuru was again, unfortunately pretty rushed while writing it.

Referring to the other Bronze Saints?
- 14,185
- 7,426
We don't accept that here
- 14,185
- 7,426
That's not how it works, prisons were never declared to be of infinite size, the underworld could very well be the size of the planet and souls could fit there ( why souls reincarnate). I can use this same argument to update multiple afterlives, since it doesn't have a set size.

Who’s we???

If infinite universes exist, you do realize that means infinite people die at once right? Even if they do reincarnate, you’d still be cycling infinite souls all at once. In addition, not everybody gets to reincarnate. At least not for a while. Some saint souls get stuck there for millions of years

True! One planet size space can hold the literally multiverses worth of people! So true! Keep cooking king!

There are infinite universes, but in all these universes there is still an afterlife, ND the entire underworld is shown there (even though Hades died and said that the underworld went with him), you would be right if there was only one underworld. But there are several of them in Saint Seiya in each Universe.

Oh Kuru why why!? Did you have to make it so the Bronze Saints needed to be slightly cornered then hyped up a bit to get to Gold Saint Level
- 14,185

Yes, just like the underworld beneath a castle well, there is not just one underworld for the entire multiverse, but rather several of them. If there really was only one underworld, destruction would remain in all timelines and we know that this did not happen.
- 7,375
- 2,919
Well first of all, he’s not dead, as shown in Rrop and G. Secondly, ND’s underworld is pre its destruction. Since this is an instance of the past where hades has not yet encountered Seiya in elysium, and the underworld has its own flow of time, this is just prior in its own time.
- 14,185
- 7,426
You mentioned that there is only one underworld, if it really existed it wouldn't be there and the same thing happens for the things i mentioned. There is an underworld for each Universe and not just unique, because the destruction caused in classic Saint Seiya would happen in all time periods, so no, there is not just one underworld for the multiverse.
- 7,375
- 2,919
Why would it happen in all time periods? That destruction happens at a point in its own personal timeline. The underworld does not conduct holy wars all at the same time, it’s one at a time. That means that every holy war, including the next dimension war, are all prior to the point in the underworld timeline were it would be destroyed
The only way this would be true is if Hades soul split into infinite fragments, and so too do the specters, which is headcanon
- 7,375

Also, Athena in dark wings refers to the god cloth bronzes, meaning that Elysiums destruction has occurred in the classic already. But in dark wings this hasn’t happened, thus showing that two universes don’t operate on the same temporal interactions with the underworld. I could draw you a map if you still don’t get it
Edit: it’s not really a map, more of a visual guide to how the living timelines interact with the underworld.

You mentioned that every soul in the multiverse goes to the underworld, i assumed that this underworld would be just the single underworld from the classic one, because it wouldn't make sense for it to still exist in the past, since the underworld serves as a repository of souls for the entire multiverse, as you stated... But we saw in ND that there was an underworld, so i assume there are multiple underworlds for all Universes.
Hades cannot fragment his soul like other characters, because this would cause changes in space-time and make Hades from another timeline not awaken.
Just remember, Elíseos wasn't the only thing he did, like the entire underworld and its prisons.
- 14,185

But you would be refuted, because all souls in the multiverse goes to the underworld and according to you there is only one, so the destruction of the underworld should happen in all time periods, but that is not happening... So there is more than one underworld mirrored in the Universe to contain souls.

Yes, since Seiya needed to combine his cosmis with all four of the other Bronze Boys to defeat Ikki before his AD closed the gap

Iirc I'm pretty sure only elysium is stated to be infinite and the other "infinite" statement in pretty sure was referring the adjective "dismal" which you know means dreary, gloomy, depressing etc.
Could ne wrong though
But 2-C was booted a long time ago top iirc it's all 2-A now

Saint Seiya Bronze and Silver Saints revamp. And a little add on.
This crt is to upgrade the ap, dura and striking strength of Bronze and silver saints, and anybody scaling to them. With this calc being accepted, Phoenix Ikki’s (and the other bronze saint level character’s) first key scales to 6-A. Standard silver saints and anyone who scales to them, will be...
