There are all sorts of TV series, animations, books, and so on that have the element of magic in it, known as a famous topic to appeal to people around the world. Aside from well-known series. Harry Potter, movies such as Frozen, Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children are also related to magic. Therefore, we maywonder whether magic is real or not. Before I think about this question, it's much more important to define what magic is. In my opinion, magic is something we cannot explain with any theories, and it is able to be performed in many ways. For example, if we have magic power, we can change our appearance, set fires, and have someone hurt through our own abilities. Besides, we can also use some magical things to help us perform even stronger magical powers such as curing or killing. Thus, it may surprise people when it is revealed.
However, magic doesn’t equal super-powers, which are displayed in the movie The Incredibles. In addition, having a wand is not necessary for those who can do magic. Nonetheless, they should utter spells or other magic words and emotions before they put "a spell"on anyone or anything. It seems to be a sense of ritual, but I have a firm belief that it is vital if we want the magic to do the trick. Meanwhile, we can tell magic from super-powers through this process. Or we can say, to some degree, magic is something you can learn and accumulate. As you study more, build up more experiences, and connect to stronger feelings, you can be better in this field. On the other hand, super-powers are inherent in few people. It's hard to learn, teach, and study, meaning that there's no room for improvement. That is, magic is just like a study in which we have a lot to learn and go through, but it’s difficult to explain with theories we have developed. So, does magic exist?
From my point of view, what Vernon says, "There's no such thing as magic!" is reasonable. Namely, I agree with his words that magic doesn"t exist, and I think it only appears in people's imagination. According to my definition, despite the fact that magic can be studied, taught, and learned, it doesn't mean magic can be illustrated by theories in the "real world". For example, taking planes to other countries is common for mankind nowadays. The reason why a plane can fly in the sky for a period rather than lead to an air crash immediately shows people's strides in technology and applications in physical theories such as Aerodynamics and Lift. On the other hand, it appears that the magic spell "Wingardium Leviosa" in Harry Potter does not have any force on an object, the feather floats in air, though. To put it differently, if we want an object like books or anything else to float or fly, we ought to put forces on these things, resulting in physics working and making sense. Therefore, the way magic works isn't like reality since it doesn't apply force to objects. Secondly, I think "The sky is the limit." can better describe how magic acts. Magic can extend its breadth since it's impossible to restrict a man's thinking and ideas. Or we can say that things like opinions are too abstract to catch, not to mention setting limits on them. Hence, as an expression of thinking, magic can be displayed by various methods as long as we imagine how to show it and make it look real. In effect, there are lots of instances that can shed light on the fact that magic is unreasonable and imaginary. Apart from the example about physics, it's strange to say we have magic powers in the real world. Imagine that when we are under a freezing condition, it's obvious that our hands will be frostbitten. However, Elsa in Frozen isn't bothered when she puts on freezing magic. Or immersed in other situations, as we are poisoned by apples or textile machines, it's far more possible that we'll die at once instead of sleeping on a bed and waiting for a prince to kiss us, wake up, and marry him.How we understand the world depends on what we see and how our brains work. However, many scientists have indicated that our brains are easily tricked. It's similar to what we see when we talk about magic tricks. Our brains usually ignore weird things to make everything logical. Kaito Kiddo, a well-known figure in Japanese animation, has proven the fact: the police are always deceived by his plans and let him get the treasure he wants. At least, things happening around us can be explained through existing theories. Although there are still some mysteries waiting to be answered, they'll unfold little by little as humankind uncovers and develops more theories and hypotheses in the future. In other words, only when magic comes from imagination can we overlook anything that sounds strange and suppose there's a parallel universe that is able to make everything possible.
