This is going to be my last thread about the verse for a long time, and for good reasons, but more on that in the last paragraph. First, 4 paragraphs to explain the 2-C feat.
Another Dimension is a multiverse, first of all. This should be left rather clear in the Heroes in Another dimension storyline, where Kirby & co. travel through 5 dimensions with different names yet all considered to be the one place that is Another Dimension. It having many universes wasn't inserted out of nowhere there, this was the case from the first game in which that appeared, Return to Dreamland, as suggested here & here. And what's the point on presenting Another Dimension as a multiverse in a game where only one of its universes is explored? Well, that's the thing, many of them were actually explored by Kirby & co. all through the game.
Many times in Return to Dreamland Kirby & co. repeat this process: 1) They go inside a space-time rift that sends them to Another Dimension, which was thought to be just a universe before. 2) From there they are in a gray version of the universe in which they were before, with a wall of space consuming everything, which they need to outrun. 3) Then they fight 1 or 2 Sphere Doomers, who have 1 or 2 energy sources that come from this thing and, upon the last Sphere Doomer exploding, the visible part of that universe (the background with many stars) stops being gray, then they come back to the planet they were bofore via another rift (the planet could be in Kirby's universe or in Another Dimension as well).
By the end of the game the defeat of the final boss, Magolor Soul, shatters what we at least see are interstellar parts of Another Dimension, making the wall of space mentioned before appear. After that Kirby & co. and other characters from Another Dimension escape that into Kirby's universe and then the characters from Another Dimension just go back to it. How do they do that after the mess in their dimension that happened just moments before? Well, it is assumed that the space-time rifts Kirby & co. traveled into sent them to the future, after Magolor Soul was defeated and parts of Another Dimension were destroyed. Beating the Sphere Doomers and having the background going from gray to normal was what fixed Another Dimension. After that the characters mentioned before could come back.
And finally, each of those places Kirby & co. went into when going inside a rift is not the same universe. Every time they do that it's another different universe. Meaning that the destruction Magolor Soul's defeat generated reached other universes wihin Another Dimension, that's the feat. How are those places not the same universe, you may ask? If they were:
That's why I'm not planning in making any other Kirby thread until having the information from at least Return to Dreamland's guide, it's a way to make a statement. I know my name is more or less known among people who would be interested in knowing more vs debates-related stuff about the verse and can do research about it, they don't deserve having huge amounts of information not being available to them, and them not even knowing about it. I don't really care if everyone gets to see the guides in the near future or not, I want to inform everyone about their existence and relevance (vs debates wise, again). That is all.

- When they are in Another Dimension, the places in which Kirby & co. end up should be the same as the place in which they were before going inside the rift, not just having some similarities. The portray the universes in Another Dimension had in Heroes in Another dimension shows them as alternative possibilities of stuff that happened in Kirby's universe, so things being different but having similarities makes perfect sense if it's other universe but it doesn't if it's the same.
- Kirby & co. go to this places more than 10 times across only 2 planets, yet when everything gets fixed from gray to normal across the background with dozens of stars, other parts of those 2 planets are still gray and have their own background with dozens of stars still being gray. Surprisingly, it makes more sense to say that the whole universe is being fixed and that each place is another one.
- This feat in turn doesn't come from Kirby & co., nor the Sphere Doomers they beat to make this happen, but the energy sources the latter beings had that came from this thing, futuristic technology made by the beings who also made the power source Magolor had.
