Personality[]
Like the other members, Mira is very loyal to Riser and will follow his orders without hesitation.[3] She has been shown to be a very serious fighter, but has also demonstrated a habit of underestimating her opponents.[1]
While initially having a bad impression of Issei for being a pervert, she later becomes a fan of his.
History[]
Not much is known about Mira, other than at some point before the series, she was revived as a Devil by Riser.[3]
Plot[]
The Red Dragon Emperor's Awakening[]
Mira first appears in Volume 2 at the Occult Research Club, when Riser introduces his peerage to Rias after the two of them decide to have a Rating Game. During the introduction, Mira was ordered by Riser to take out an aggravated Issei and manages to land a direct blow to the stomach, nearly knocking him out.[3] During the Rating Game, Mira fought Issei again in the replicated gymnasium. Although she quickly gained the upper hand in terms of fighting style, she lost to the latter after being one of the first victims (alongside Ile and Nel) hit by Issei's Dress Break and was finally taken out of the fight when Akeno destroyed the building.[1]
The Legend of Oppai Dragon and his Lively Companions[]
In the Extra Life of DX.1, Mira participated in her master's rematch against Rias. Mira faces off against Issei again, who uses his Balance Breaker from the start and beats her with Dragon Shot, which also rips off her clothes. Before being retired, she blushingly asks for his autograph later.
In Volume 19, Mira participates in the Rating Game between her master and Diehauser Belial.
