Where is Xehanort?

But Xehanort must have had a heartless if he had a Nobody. Unless his heartless was just a shadow or something, and then Ansem WAS Xehanort.

Oh, hi Kiari!
Anyways, that could easily be the reason why Xemnas is considered a Special Nobody.

 

[Zero Sora]

I always thought he was a special Nobody cause he it didn't look exactly like his somebody. Just like Sora and Roxas don't look exactly alike.

Xemnas looks different from Xehanort (like Roxas and Namine) because he's a special Nobody, not the other way around. We know that they are special Nobodies because of their different appearances and voices, we just don't know exactly why they are special Nobodies.

 

[Zero Sora]

Hmm, since you say that, I guess they could be considered special Nobodies because there was a third party involved during their creation. Roxas = Ven's heart in Sora. Namine = Sora's body. Xemnas = MX's heart in Terra. But still, it feels like there could be more to their so called "Specialness".
