A Novashadow has a fairly muscular, humanoid body. Its crooked antennae are quite long and fall back behind the Heartless. It seems to be rather muscular, and its hands are very large, each one sporting four clawed fingers. Its feet, like those of a normal [[Shadow]], are long and lack digits. Its body is mostly a dark brown color, and is also lined by several faint, red veins of color. Despite their apparent large size, Novashadows are only fought when [[Roxas]] has shrunk himself in [[Wonderland]], suggesting that they are actually very small. Novashadows are virtually identical to [[Neoshadow]]s, though they have a different color scheme and four claws instead of five.

The Novashadow's name has a similar meaning to that of a Neoshadow. The English word "nova" is derived from the Latin word "novus", which means "new". The [[Cheshire Cat]] makes reference to this, during the mission for which the Novashadow is the target, when asking if Roxas and [[Luxord]] are looking for the "new shadow." Its Japanese name, "Next Shadow" reflects the fact that it was introduced after the Neoshadow.

When fighting it again on Day 323, take out the [[Striped Aria]] behind it to prevent the constant annoyance dealt by it, then focus on the Novashadow with the same strategy used in Day 255.
