No, he has no defence against magic effects not just magic objects doing things that have no relation to their magical nature.
He has no "added" defence against magic, but his regular defence is more than enough to shrug off being hit with a pole. It does not negate his normal defences.

I think Saiga's right. It's not like he's ethereal or untouchable or anything. He's not a ghost, so just adding the property "magical" doesn't make anything suddenly able to hit him.
It would have to be the magic itself attacking him, not just an object containing any old kind of magic.

When they get the point where Cell dies, they should reference this misheard phrase he says during it:

Watch SymphogearActually he's Super Perfect Cell.
I wonder, is it Super Perfect Cell (Like Super Mode for his Perfect Form) or Super Perfect Cell (Like "super perfect" being a form above regular "perfect").
It's the same thing regardless, just wondering about where the adjective stops and the noun begins.
You cannot firmly grasp the true form of Squidward's technique!I thought I was posting in the Death Battle thread.

Which is why, despite people normally using the Spike names for things, Super Perfect Cell sticks.
For what it's worth, the Japanese can be a little ambiguous. "Kanzentai", Cell's favourite word that gets translated as "Perfect" in most English versions, can either mean perfect or "Complete". The Viz manga goes with "Complete" rather than "Perfect", which makes sense.
In the manga, coming back from the botched suicide, Cell describes himself as "Perfect" using a different word, that can't also mean complete.
So one way to translate it could actually be "Complete form" and "Perfect". He completed his body by absorbing the Androids like he was designed, and then became so powerful he considers himself to have reached perfection.
I really like that distinction, but "Perfect" the way the English dub uses it is just too ingrained in me.
