Magic (まほう, Magic) is Sora's neutral special move.
Overview
Sora will use a one of three magic spells at his disposal, Firaga (ファイガ, Figa), Thundaga (サンダガ, Thundaga) and Blizzaga (ブリザガ, Blizzaga), based on the cycling order as seen in the command icon above his fighter mugshot, so if Sora used Firaga, it switches to Thundaga, if Thundaga is used, it switches to Blizzaga, and if Blizzaga is used, it switches back to Firaga.
In default, he starts with Firaga, which he fires a straight fireball from his Keyblade. It can be tapped continously shoot out more. Thundaga has Sora lifting his Keyblade upwards to summon three continuous clouds that shoots out a thunderbolt, dealing electric damage to the opponent up to three times. When used in mid-air, its range is decreased. Blizzaga has Sora shooots out a stream of short range ice projectiles that instantly freezes the opponent if close, similar to Blizzard. All of the three moves can be deflected, absorbed, or picked up by Villager and Isabelle when using Pocket.
Origin
In the Kingdom Hearts series, magic is a type of skill learned by Keyblade wielders for offensive or supportive purposes based on the limited amount of MPs used in gameplay. Some support abilities like MP Rage and MP Haste are used in combat. The best magic user is Donald Duck, Sora's companion, who has a selection of many spells on his disposal throughout the series. Magic comes in three different tiers, denoted by the suffix added to the end of the spell: Level one is simply the element's name (Fire), level two adds '-ra' to the end (Fira), and level three adds '-aga' to the end (Firaga). All three spells shown here are cast at level three. The naming convention itself originates from the Final Fantasy series, where it is standard.
