Distance between Pop Star and the Divine Terminus

A clarification of this should enable it to clarify other aspects of the series.


First off, the Jamba Heart pieces being stated to have been scattered across the universe by Francisca is a mistranslation.


It may actually mention something done far away in space, as “宇宙” also means “space”.
In the story of the game Hyness mentions he and his people to be "masters of a power driven from the far reaches of the universe", which should be the Divine Terminus, where their Dark Lord was sealed.
The mentioned area is the galaxy’s edge (“ぎんがのはて”), and he mentions it as such twice more even in the American version.
An alternative dimension version of the same place was said to be "the precipice of another dimension", although this could refer to that place being the last universe in Another Dimension, which would be why it's called Final Dimension. At the same time, just being the last universe there shouldn't make it a precipice.
That place is at another world’s end (“異界の果てまで釆たのだが”), its counterpart is at the main world’s end and so is Pop Star.
For what is worth, the Divine Terminus is at the end of the space-themed map of the game in the story.
That map is surrounded by just nebulae, stars and even the planets Halfmoon and Ripple Star.


Suspiciously, Galacta Knight, which the game reminds us is the strongest warrior in the galaxy, seems to be weaker than Void Termina, who gave Kirby his toughest battle yet and previously needed 4 unknown heroes to fight him and be sealed, one of which is suggested to be to be Galacta Knight.
Void Termina mayn’t be from the galaxy, but characters’ origins have nothing to do with works’ settings (e.g., E.T. isn't from Earth, yet his film is set on it).
It only says his design is reminiscent of a mage from another galaxy.
The Divine Terminus should have been there for extremely long periods of time, yet it would only be located at the end of Kirby's galaxy, where Nova's summoning point is and where there isn't supposed to be anything. (It could also be there both places are at different ends of the galaxy, but the implication with both is that Popstar's located at the opposite end given the space that needs to be traveled from one place to the other and how Popstar's at the edge of the universe.)
Pop Star is near those ends, as the “Milky Way Wishes” planets are near it (“ちかくの星をむすんで”) and near Nova, which isn’t “at galaxy’s other end”.
Anyway, the Divine Terminus and Nova are at ends of the galaxy near each other.


Void Termina travels around the galaxy while recreating himself into a new existence, then he arrives to a new body/life when his vessel is complete. He also exists in all dimensions, which can be interpreted in many ways, and is the ancestor of basically everyone. Interpreting the mechanics of this information in all the ways in which they could work Void Termina should really not travel around just the galaxy while recreating himself, but around each universe in which he exists. Why is the predecessor of everyone not going outside 1 galaxy? When he dies and needs to gather energy again does he only do so in that galaxy by way of going back to it if he was outside, or does he do it only in the galaxy where he died? Or maybe he does literally never leave that galaxy, any option is bad.
The original statement could help, and him being older than others doesn’t mean anything.
Magolor was stated to be more than willing to help you conquer the "galaxy", which is a mistranslation for universe (宇宙) and something that mirrors his ambition in the first game where he appeared, where it was left very clear that he wanted to conquer the universe, with a galaxy never being said.
Again, “宇宙” also means “space”, so his proposal is a vague reference to his plan in his game.
This one's very cheap as it's from other series, I just find it notable as it happened little time after Star Allies. Galeem from Super Smash Bros. Ultimate shot rays of light that visually encompassed a galaxy and were stated to have done the same by Sakurai in some interview, but they were stated by narration to have crushed the universe and context implies the same.
True, it’s pretty cheap as it uses a SSB element not being a sentence about a Kirby element.


In conclusion, Star Allies isn’t set in the entire universe but in Pop Star’s region of the galaxy.
