437:, Sanderson actually explained how Lord of the Rings, unlike what this article is claiming, is one of the archetypal forms of the hybrid magic systems. It uses both extreme soft magic in Gandalf and relatively hard magic in the One Ring. The latter being explained in giving at least two powers to normal people: it gives you a longer life and it makes you invisible, and two detriments: Sauron sees you and you become corrupted over time.

Semblances from RWBY may seem like magic, but magic in RWBY is a completely different concept that seems to be limitless. The magic in RWBY is not governed by rules except for the fact that humans and faunus can't mess with life and death. However, the brother gods in the show use magic to return

There is no real explanation of "bending" in Avatar other than some spirits gave people the power to "bend elements", and they have to dance sometimes or just wave their hands other times. The rules of this mysterious magic aren't ever explained. The only connection between bending and the hard

This paragraph describes 'hard and soft' as a spectrum, but no definition of that spectrum is found in this article nor is there any citation for supporting documentation. There are two types of magic defined: 'hard' and 'soft' — no ‘spectrum’ is laid out with supporting sources. This paragraph

Apart from the fact that a lot of the writing seems to be really basic, there are too many uses of terms like "interesting" making it seem far from neutral. Also not sure about the sources.

If Hard Magic is defined by how consistently and rigorously the magic is applied, why are superheroes listed as hard magic? Only source is this wikipedia page

Also, there seems to be a problem of over-reliance on one source. This seems like a useful conceptual distinction; is nobody using it but
