Just because the magic was proven fake that partiular time doesn't mean that magic in general doesn't exist in the show. TMNT, at its core, has always been a unity of different types of fiction. (A "fantasy kitchen sink", as TvTropes calls it) Remember in the 2003 show, where the turtles, ninjas, government agents, and superheroes were all fighting a demon army? And that's not even getting into the time-travelling demons or the aliens that look like dinosaurs. Yeah, yeah, I know, what I meant was in Mazes and Mutants the turtles were conflicted with the existence of magic and now... They just ignored it... Sure, Chan said it wasn't sorcery, that only for an untrained eye it would look just like magic, but he only said it to the Dragons, the others should've been at least a little shocked with those amazing powers as they knew he wasn't a mutant. Maybe they just thought he was some kind of illusion-caster too?

That's the problem, "maybe", I just think they could've wasted a line or two to say how they felt about it.
