"Maybe it does matter, he used connections, the elders arranged everything for him, living is definitely more flavorful than being dead."
Compared to when they were alive, the sensitivity of the dead souls to various senses is much lower, except for pain.
Pain is instead more sensitive now, because when they get hurt, it's a wound to their soul – not only sensitive, but they can't faint from the pain, only hurt until their soul shatters.
And then, there's no chance of resurrection.
Moreover, the Netherworld is very barren, referring to the lack of diversity in matter, far from the richness and variety of the normal world.
Experiencing various special sensations is extremely difficult.
There's no sweet, sour, bitter, or salty, and spicy is unbearable, smells of fragrance or stench can't be detected, it's hard to enjoy the pleasure of smell... the Netherworld is a "bland" world.
