Instead, Hell functions much like a microcosm, with its inhabitants developing relationships as well as being subject to a system of law. Unlike most portrayals of Hell, the Hell of the Dragon Ball universe is not depicted as torturing its inhabitants (indeed, there is even an amusement park). Hell is also composed of other regions, such as the vegetated Yemma Forest featured in Dragon Ball Z: Attack of the Saiyans and a frozen part located much further down which is shown in Dragon Ball GT. There is also "Pin's Mountain", a mountain composed entirely of what appears to be pins or needles, and a jail. Also located in this sector are a Hell Tourist Board and a Hell Park. Later, in Fusion Reborn, the lake would be semi-frozen by Janemba and used to encase Goku. On more than one occasion, members of Ginyu Force sent to the Other World, as well as Cell on one occasion, are knocked into the Bloody Pond. Its salient feature is the "Bloody Pond" in Area 1, Sector 3, which true to its name is apparently composed of blood. Hell is a mountainous area located beneath the Snake Way. Two more details that were based from Di Yu, that would have gone unnoticed are the 'Iron Spiked/Knife Trees' in the background which in scripture are used to impale/cut sinners and the 'Mountain of Spikes/Blades' AKA 'Needle Mountain', which was seen in the battle with Pikkon and Goku against Cell, Cold, Frieza and the Ginyu Force in the Dragon Ball Z episode " Warriors of the Dead" which leads to the villains getting knocked onto the mountain and impaled, and then thrown into a prison cell. The Freezing Tundra of Hell seen in Dragon Ball GT is another reference to a punishment in East Asian hell known as "Hell of Icy Coldness" where one is sent to a cold & icy plain surrounded by mountains and constant blizzards where they would suffer the bitter cold freezing their bodies solid.ĭepiction of the 'Needle Mountain', which ogres force sinners to climb A red colored hot spring tourist attraction by the same name can be found in Beppu, Ōita, Japan. The pond of blood with an ogre ( oni) and monksĪnother example is the Bloody Pond seen in the Dragon Ball Z series, which comes from one of the punishments for sinners (with varied crimes).

Much of Hell seen in the Dragon Ball series was based upon the Chinese version and later the Japanese version of Hell under their respective names Di Yu and Jigoku which are governed by bureaucratic entities such as Yama (Yemma) with his minions the Oni (Ogre) who normally range in green, red or blue skin colors whom are also the caretakers/assistants of Hell.
