Hi, this one is a fandom-specific one, so I'll throw it here.

In Inazuma Eleven, most of the characters have special techniques, which has been generally just subbed/translated as Hissatsu techniques (Hissatsu, IIRC, literally meaning "sure-kill"). The animations for these has made most of, if not all of the fandom refer to it as Magic Soccer. Here's a clip for example of what the animation looks like and why we might call it magic soccer.

The thing is, no one is really too sure if everything they're doing really does come up. It's hinted that everything has the feel and the exaggerated animation is the representation of the feeling.

I noticed that the three Inazuma Eleven characters have on their application that they're normal unless magic soccer does translate to magic (We all took by example, haha). So I was wondering if it possibly could. Like, if it really has been the feeling with the animation visually exaggerating the power and intensity, with exposure to real magic making it real magic soccer, or if it has been magic from the start, or it could never be magic.

I'd have to say that by looking at the clip in question, that the Hissatsu techniques themselves would just be normal techniques. However, the characters would be allowed to utilize magic to utilize techniques based on what was shown there, as unless it's stated by the canon itself, all of the characters are able to have some potential with magic.

Could you define what it means by "some potential with magic" and the criteria for it? So far, what I've gotten from that, is that it's up to the mun. It's the kind of thing that varies between muns even if they have the same character. For example, maybe one player of character X says they have magic, but then drop. A second player picks up character X and say that they don't.

Actually, the way you've gathered is pretty much correct. Sorry that wasn't clear. The character's potential with magic, unless otherwise stated in his or her canon explicitly, would be up to the mun.

For example of characters who wouldn't be able to use magic, take the ESPers in To Aru Majutsu no Index/Kajaku no Railgun. They're explicitly unable to use magic in the setting, or they'll die (with one notable exception).
