Magus is not pleased about having an Effect named after himself
The Magus Effect (or TME) dictates that fan favorites (eg Magus) will fall off over time while main characters (eg Crono) stay relatively the same, probably due to fan favorites requiring recency for people to remember them well, while main character symbolize the game itself. (Unless you are Auron, in which case the situation is reversed.) TME was first coined in 2010 by Kamikaze.
