Mass Effect ain't count, that not magic
So it stops being magic as soon as there is any functional explanation?
Depends on the story, many science fiction stories define magic as something that cannot be understood or explained, so if it's understood, it's no longer magic.
Than there are science fiction stories (many science fiction JRPGS) where magic is just something that exists alongside science and technology.
