has a halo, a pair of wings (which are dark red at the tips), and a dark red eye. It also has a bandage under its halo and a spike on its underside, which transforms into a spiky green protrusion when its halo is removed (this protrusion is also its weak point). 0² releases blood (confirmed to be such by the credits illustration of 0² and the game's ESRB rating in ''[[Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition]]'') when its eye is hit, though this does not actually damage the boss. Its halo and wings may suggest that 0² is a reincarnation or angelic form of Zero.

This theme has been remixed in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', and the ''Brawl'' remix has later been reused in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. This theme has also been remixed for both ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'' and the [[Kirby Café]].

*If the player pauses the game in Dark Star, the "Try Again" option (which functions the same as "Quit" in other games) will be replaced by "Tough It Out!" (がんばる, "do your best", in Japanese), which functions the same as selecting the "Continue" button, so the player cannot quit the battle or leave the star in question.

**This does not happen in the game's [[Boss Endurance#Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards|Boss Battles]] mode, as pausing the game there even when battling 0² will display an "Accept Defeat" option, which lets the player get out of the battle as if Kirby ran out of health.
**While this does not happen throughout the rest of the level if the player has already completed the star, the pause menu for 0² will always display "Tough It Out!", with the exception of the game's [[Boss Endurance#Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards|Boss Battles]] mode, where pausing the game even when battling 0² will display an "Accept Defeat" option, which lets the player get out of the battle as if Kirby ran out of health.
*Before the fight with 0² begins, the boss briefly shows a strange less-threatening face, with two black dots for eyes and the closed main eye serving as a smiling mouth. Why it briefly looks like this before changing to its look during the fight is unknown, though it may be a feint based on 0²'s "concept art" in the [[False Ending]] credits of the game.

**Additionally, the winged angel form of Void Termina's wings somewhat resemble those of 0², though much more substantial in nature.

*The background for this boss fight is the same as the pool on the ground of [[The Divine Terminus]] in [[Heroes in Another Dimension]] once three dimensions are cleared and when fighting [[Morpho Knight]] in either [[Guest Star ???? Star Allies Go!]] (version 3.0.0. only) or Soul Melter of [[The Ultimate Choice]] as [[Adeleine]] & [[Ribbon]], [[Dark Meta Knight]] and [[Daroach]].
*The background for this boss fight is actually part of 0²'s model.

*The official guide for ''Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards'' by [[wikipedia:Prima Games|Prima Games]] mentions that 0² is "a benevolent creature who rarely presents trouble in the cloud levels of [[Shiver Star]]", which is untrue.

It is likely that its description was mistakenly swapped with [[Mopoo]]'s.
