I recognize two of those Magics being mine. Thanks buddy ^^

Yeah, I'm glad you got where I was coming from. That's really the biggest reason why I continue to follow this series despite its abhorrent writing. I have a great love for it and its cast, so much so that it pains me when they're abused, misused or underhandedly displayed in obscene ways. It defines my disposition to the fanbase, fandom and the series overall at its current state.

It was a really surreal experience to write out an argument with myself and rationalize my way back to staying in the game. It's one of the reasons I loathed Lucas' decision to have "Midicholorians" explained. No other Episode in the Prequels is this ever touched upon. It was merely a subplot that was used to explain in a "scientific" way how the Force exists. Instead of a cosmic FORCE that flows through the Universe itself, living and almost alive with duality intentions through balancing itself with Dark and Light being a factor for those who tap into its limitless reservoir, it became a "Power Scaling" comparison. It's something I HATED whenever I think of Episode 1 because it took away the Mystic Fantasy feel of the SW Universe. But, for whatever reason, no one talks about it again and Anakin never displays the power that he should have so I guess it's whatever now, most likely never talked about in the future episodes to come.

That's why I hate the idea of Machines. Man-Made entities with artificially constructed personalities and programmed abilities to use "magic" without so much as a word of explanation or backstory. Because Hiro wanted to make a robot for the sake of having a robot in the rogues' gallery, it makes this CRIMINAL to his very series. Yeah, I was very disgusted what an Author who already stretched the definition of "Magic" to excuse the fact that Jura used the power of HAND CHOPS to beat a God Slayer and almost beat Laxus with Kagura using just non-drawn sword skills to beat Erza AND BACCHUS USING DRUNKEN FIST MARTIAL ARTS THROUGH "PALM MAGIC"-...ahem.

I digress, he's already stretched the imagination of what qualifies as "Magic". But now, this stretches the line. I hope the Admins employ some form of restriction in how these "Magic Machines" are created on this site cause the last thing we need is oversaturation of Robots using MAGIC for the sake of Magic Robots!

Thanks anyways friend ^^
