Grand Magic

Grand Magic (大魔術（だいまじゅつ）, Dai Majutsu^?) is a term used to refer to certain spells that take effect on a world wide scale in Toaru Majutsu no Index, such as the distorting effect of Angel Fall.

Background

The term grand magic was used to refer to Angel Fall alone, up until Tsuchimikado Motoharu's explanation to Kamijou Touma regarding the use of Feng Shui by Kamijou Touya to arrange the souvenirs and charms in his home to create a magic circle. Here, Motoharu states the danger of moving or touching the souvenirs as would create an entirely new magic circle, therefore a new spell.

List of known Grand Magic

Motoharu lists examples, and all refer to them in as Grand Magic:

• Earth Shaker (極大地震（アースシェイカー）, Kyokudai Jishin (Āsu Sheikā)^?, lit. "Maximum Earthquake")
• Phantom Hound (異界反転（ファントムハウンド）, Ikai Hanten (Fantomu Haundo)^?, lit. "Underworld Reversal")
• Cocytus Replica (永久凍土（コキュートスレプリカ）, Eikyūtōdo (Kokyūtosu Repurika)^?, lit. "Permafrost")

Trivia

• The 2nd Toaru Majutsu no Index Soundtrack for the second season of the anime adaptation has the Dai Majutsu as the 7th track. Although none of the spells referred above are mentioned above, it most likely refers to the large-scale spell La Regina del Mare Adriatico.
