A common misunderstanding of infinity is that infinite is equivalent to everything. For example, there are infinitely many even numbers, and infinitely many numbers in between 1 and 2, but those infinite sets are a tiny fraction of the infinite set of all real numbers.

* ''VideoGame/AntimatterDimensions'': Infinity is rendered as 1.789e308; having that much of a resource usually stops all production, at least until you break the infinity limit. The first reset layer is also called Infinity, obtained by getting your antimatter to infinity and then performing a Big Crunch. Then once you get infinite Infinity Points, you can get an Eternity.

* ''Manga/ChainsawMan'': The Eternity Devil traps the Devil Hunters on the 8th floor and sticks the time at 8:18, a play on how a lemniscate (a symbol for infinity) looks like a sideways eight.
* ''Anime/DragonBallSuper'': Zamasu's final form is called "Infinite Zamasu", it's basically a massive amalgamation of seemingly endless Zamasu faces whose sole goal is to assimilate the entire multiverse and can break across timelines.

** ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureGoldenWind Golden Wind]]'': Giorno's Gold Experience Requiem stats has a zero in everything. While this could be explained as the reoccurring "power of zero" theme by constantly negating all manner of attacks thrown at it, delivering a decisive attack will subject its target to an eternal ResurrectionDeathLoop.
** ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureStoneOcean Stone Ocean]]'': When struck by Pucci's C-Moon, Jolyne manages to counteract the effects of her body being destroyed by constructing a band of infinity; the Mobius Strip, with her strings. With no concept of inside or outside on the Mobius Strib, Jolyne is able to undo C-Moon's ability of inverting objects.
** ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureSteelBallRun Steel Ball Run]]'': Johnny's Tusk Act 4 is a literal representation of infinite energy. It cannot be stopped by seemingly any metric, being completely unaffected by manipulation of time, dimensions, or the translocation across multiple realities.
** ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureJoJolion JoJolion]]'': Josuke discovers that Soft & Wet's bubbles are really infinitesimally thin lines spinning at high speed into the shape of a sphere. This makes them infinitely close to being functionally non-existant, removing them from normal causality and creating an entirely new power; Soft & Wet: Go Beyond.
