Final write up
Granblue Verse
Granblue is initially assumed to be a simple universe and what granted most characters who came close to the creator of the universe a low 2-C rating is by being able to Destroy Pandemonium and Etemenanki who both have enough mass and durability to destroy the dimensional boundary that is holding off the Chaos of Crimson Horizon and Otherworldly Realm which would theoretically completely wipe out everything in existence without any trace including Astral Realm Sky-realm who is universal in size and the Holy Seat Genesis where the Omnipotent resides.
Astral Realm a higher layer/dimension
Before we begin we must first understand Astral Power which is also the power of Origination. And the best example of these would be Primal Beast.
To start with the initial description of Primal Beast is they are
Sky-realm entities reborn into higher dimensional existence. and this is also supported in the game by the statement of
Zeyen. As noted their
Powers are from a plane in a higher position than the Physical plane they exist in. Often times the Power of Primal Beast is always connected to Astral Power. because they are
Sky-realm's core given Astral Power and stated by Nezha that they run on
Astral Energy. initially, it was assumed that Primal Beast True form exists on a higher plane from where their powers come from. There is something wrong with that interpretation. In the Main Story Walfrid told his story regarding the mission given to them by the Sky-God.
It described that
Primal Beast are Astral Powers no longer in the Astral Realm, specifically their powers. so rather it is not that Primal Beast's true form exists on a higher plane but rather their powers themselves are from a higher dimensional plane which is the Astral Realm. and their death from having their Core shattered or having all their Astral Powers excised by the power granted by Sky-God does not kill them but rather harvest/collect those energy or return them to the Astral Realm if left alone. So it is very likely that Astral Realm is the higher dimensional plane that Zeyen talks about.
In the current 8th Anniversary Event it was also implied how the
Astral Realm is considered on a higher layer than the World of Sky-realm. The Astrals in the Astral Realm created Cosmos as the arbitration and keeper of the balance of the Sky-realm and she has done so by observing it and creating surrogates and automatic arbitration system which is Zooey (Grand Order) and Geo who are reliant on her for
their existence and cannot be completely destroyed without being able to destroy their true form Cosmos.
Regarding Astral Realm being an actual universe in itself. Helel Ben Sahar or Lucio who is the Speaker who oversees all creation and Sky-realm stated that the
Astral Realm is based on the original world which is the Sky-realm which is a universe in size.
Furthermore into this. Yuni who is en Envoy of Cosmos needed to
descend from the Astral Realm to reach the closed dimension. the
closed-off dimension that Cosmos herself created is completely cut off from both the Astral Realm and Sky-realm but
contained all of Sky-realm History similarly to Akasha who transcended the
natural order of history and is capable of governing and
manipulating all of Sky-realm history past present
and future and it's capable of
affecting the entire Spacetime and
reset the entire world. Cosmos from simply watching in Astral Realm
was able to foresee the existence of singularity near the end of history and all countless possibilities at the end of time depending on
what fate the Singularity has chosen or how it manifested in Sky-realm.
Other supporting evidence regarding superiority
Ultimate Bahamut in his fight against the Singularity made it so that his defeat is merely a
dream but the effects of the fight still exist on the weapon of Singularity
Shiva put him on a trial where
the effect of the fight happened but it became merely a dream. then same also happened to the 4 successors of Primarchs
Metatron also confronted The Captain with a trial despite being weakened due to his physical body being lost in Crimson Horizon and only existing as residual of his consciousness and
his manifestation slowly dissolving.
and Sandalphon not being able to sense Metatron's presence the entire time
Lucifer also stated these trials are not dreams but also not reality either in Wyvern's Reverie,
and the trial ended without anyone having memory of it but receiving a gift.
Ellis Stamp has the ability to
perceive 3D as flat and has a
hyperdimensional perception that allows him to see the 4th dimension of time as positive and negative T-Axis that allows him to see past present and
future or hack targets from the past and future while also
connecting their present self to
the past and future thus He cannot be completely severed once he has hacked someone and the effects can even manifest physically.
Ellis was easily overloaded by the information and data contained by Primal Beast that caused him to crash and reboot.
One of Protobahamut's attacks is named Hyperdimension ignores any form of defense against it
Lucio sealed Lucilius on the spaces between dimensions that prevent him from entering or interacting with any of the realms and Sandalphon said it is a domain likely similar to Crimson Horizon opposes Astral Realm and vice versa
Lucilius refers to Lucifer his first primal beast as someone who exists on a higher plane
Proposed Tiers
All Creators and Characters who scaled to the power capable of destroying the dimensional boundary that separates Astral Realm, Sky-realm and Crimson Horizon which holds off all the Chaos that could engulf everything in existence and creation of the Omnipotent one
2-C possibly
low 1-C for profiles who are already low 2-C such as Shalem, Ultimate Bahamut, Lucilius, and Beelzebub
with some being
4-A likely
2-C possibly
low 1-C for profiles who has
4-A likely
low 2-C ratings that scale with the same feat
2-C being that Astral Realms Is its own separate spacetime and universe or realm completely closed off
while possibly
low 1-C being that Astral Realm is possibly a higher dimensional realm compared to Sky-realm wherein their powers easily trivialize and easily controls and manipulates concepts, laws, logic, and existence within Sky-realm and Cosmos Seeing Sky-realm's History from a higher purview or stratum and being able to see the end of it that not even Lucifer in Sky-realm is able to and had to directly converse with Sky-God to be able to see one of the possible futures.
All Primal Beast except some with independent situations should get their
Type 9 Immortality removed but retain their higher dimensional existence if higher dimension is accepted.
I will make a blogpost if necessary detailing how the cosmology works in Granblue
