History

Mirajane moved to tears by her siblings' dedication

In her younger years, Mirajane's parents died and she and her siblings lived alone after that. At around the age of 13, Mirajane helped the townspeople by defeating a Demon that had taken over the church. However, being unaware of her magical abilities at the time, she took on some of the said creature's appearance, being scorned by the townspeople and believing herself to be a monster. With no choice but to leave, she and her siblings then happened upon Fairy Tail, and, learning that she was not possessed, agreed to join the guild. Despite this though, Mirajane still believed herself to be a monster, and attempted to leave Magnolia; however, she was stopped by Elfman and Lisanna, who had learned their own versions of Take-Over so that their older sister wouldn't be alone.

Mirajane bullying Macao and Wakaba

When she was younger, she was always in brawls with her rival of the time, Erza Scarlet. She even intimidated many of the older members, due to her punkish attitude and bullying tendencies. Despite teasing Natsu endlessly, she always had a soft spot for him, finding him to be cute when he cries. As she grew older, her abilities increased tremendously, and in the year X781, at the age of 16, she became an S-Class Mage, being the second youngest Mage in Fairy Tail to do so; only Erza was younger when she achieved the same honor.

One year after the promotion, during a mission with her younger siblings, Elfman and Lisanna, Lisanna was supposedly killed by Elfman, due to him losing control when he tried to take over "The Beast". The shock of Lisanna's loss caused Mirajane's personality to shift dramatically; she abandoned her bullying tendencies and became the sweet and motherly figure beloved by the guild today. She also lost her will to fight and the vast majority of her Magic Power.

Soon after, Mirajane’s whole demeanor changed to appear more kind and gentle. She eventually resorted to working as the guilds Head Waitress. Mirajane would also feature herself in glamor shots for Sorcerer Weekly Magazine as a Swimsuit Model alongside Jenny Realight.

Mirajane captured by the Giant

Later, after Makarov loses his power, Mirajane and Cana Alberona try to call Mystogan and Laxus back to the guild to assist the war effort.

Mirajane after being saved by Elfman

Her capture helps Elfman regain his lost Magic, Full Body Take Over, and gives him the ability to defeat Element 4's Sol. After defeating Sol, Elfman makes his way to Mirajane, freeing her and apologizing to her for again taking the form that killed their sister.

The clouds part as she lets out a scream and a huge burst of Magic Power destroys the terrain around her. She activates her Magic, Take Over: Satan Soul. As she and Fried begin to battle, she completely overwhelms him in both power and speed. As their battle progresses, Fried remarks that the only way to beat a Demon is with a Demon, and he uses his Dark Écriture: Darkness which turns him into a Demon, but even then, Mirajane continues to easily overpower him. Just as she is about to finish Fried off, she has a vision of her younger sister Lisanna, and decides to spare his life. She then begins talking to Fried about the guild members, making Fried cry.

Later, when Natsu, Happy, Wendy, and Carla are late from coming back from a meeting with a woman who claims to have seen a Dragon, Mirajane begins to worry about them and comments that it is strange for Natsu to be late. Later, Mirajane, along with the other members of Fairy Tail, arrive to combat the Dragonoid and stop it from crushing Erza. After Wendy collapses from using too much Magic Power, Mirajane tends to her as she lies unconscious.

The Take Over Siblings reunited

When Anima is about to absorb Fairy Tail and Magnolia Town, Mirajane is shown going out to church with Elfman, even in the heavy rain, for Lisanna's death anniversary. Following the events in Edolas, she and Elfman continue on to the graveyard, and offer their prayers for the anniversary of Lisanna's death. Elfman says that they should leave, but she says she wants to stay a little bit longer. Just then, they hear a voice calling out to them, and turn around to see Lisanna running towards them. Immediately left speechless, they can't believe their eyes, but then become filled with joy when they reunite with a hug.

Tenrou Island arc

Mirajane, Elfman, Lisanna

After the welcome party for Lisanna, Mirajane is seen sleeping on the floor with Lisanna, Elfman, Jet, and Droy. Later, she talks to Lucy about Cana's claim that she was thinking about leaving the guild. At the announcement of the S-Class Trial, after all the rules were explained, it was then revealed that Erza, Gildarts and Mirajane would also be participating in the trial as well, though their main role is to hinder the participants from progressing further into the trial in any way they possibly can.

Mirajane confronts Elfman and Evergreen

She is later revealed to be in path A, waiting for her opponents, Elfman and Evergreen, with her Take Over Satan Soul activated. Later, Elfman and Evergreen, being overwhelmed by Mirajane, barely pass the exam; it is revealed that they told Mirajane that they are getting married, which shocked her and gave them an opening to defeat her. She believes that they lied to beat her, but then imagines them having a very ugly child, which causes her to cry.

Similar to everyone else when thinking about Mest, Mirajane can't exactly recall him entering the guild. Later, after Grimoire Heart lands on Tenrou Island, she and Lisanna fight off some members of Grimoire Heart without much effort. Azuma then confronts them, and Mirajane tells Lisanna to get back.

Mirajane and Lisanna vs. Azuma

Azuma starts using his Great Tree Arc, so Lisanna recommends that Mirajane use Satan Soul to defeat Azuma, but she says she can't use the spell over and over again so much. Azuma then realizes he is fighting "the Demon Mirajane," and requests a serious match against her Demon form. She doesn't respond and tells Lisanna to run away, because she can tell Azuma is very strong. Since she doesn't respond to Azuma's request, he traps Lisanna in a ticking time bomb. As Mirajane panics, Azuma tells her that the bomb will go off in three minutes, and that is the time she has to defeat him. She calls him a coward, but he says he will do anything to face the Demon. Without a choice, she uses Satan Soul, even though she knows she won't be able to retain it for long.

Mirajane saves Lisanna from the explosion

After she and Azuma battle for a while, Mirajane realizes she doesn't have enough time to defeat him, so she flies over to Lisanna, and deactivates Satan Soul. She apologizes to Lisanna, telling her that she is unable to defeat him due to the lack of time left, but she believes there is someone in the guild who can. She then tells her she's going to forfeit, but not to worry, because Lisanna was the one person she would not let die. The bomb goes off with her hugging Lisanna. After the explosion, Mirajane's heavily damaged body covers Lisanna, saving her from the blast. Her sister calls her name, but she gives no response. Azuma, disappointed, walks away. She is later seen recovering alongside Gajeel, with Lisanna and Levy by her side.

Mirajane and the others intervene

Later, after Hades is defeated, a few Grimoire Heart Guild members attempt to attack all the Fairy Tail members that fought Hades, but Mirajane intervenes, along with the Thunder God Tribe, Gajeel, Levy, Cana, Lisanna, Elfman, and Makarov. When Grimoire Heart finally leaves Tenrou Island, she and the rest of the Fairy Tail members go rest at their camp.

Fairy Tail attempting to block Acnologia's attack

Their rest, however, is cut short when Acnologia arrives and attacks the guild members. Mirajane is horrified when Makarov holds the beast off, and tells his guild members that his final order is for them to escape. She heeds his order and attempts to flee Tenrou Island; however, like the rest of Fairy Tail, she comes back. She activates Satan Soul and attempts to fight Acnologia. When Acnologia flies into the air and prepares to use some sort of Dragon Breath, the Fairy Tail members hold hands and give all their Magic Power to Fried in an attempt to negate the attack, but they fail and Tenrou Island is destroyed.

Mirajane explains what social dancing is

When Natsu and Lucy start to practice dancing in preparation for a ball, Mirajane explains to Romeo, who doesn't understand the concept of dancing, what social dancing is and why it is performed. When all of the Fairy Tail members begin to join in with the fun, Mirajane is asked to dance by Macao, and she accepts. However, before the two can even take a step together, Wakaba appears and begins to argue with Macao over her, with Mirajane becoming embarrassed and trying to stop them.

In the guild, Mirajane listens to Natsu complain about Lucy kicking him and Happy out of her apartment. When the guild starts to fight, Mira watches it from the sidelines. She asks somebody to stop their fighting because the Guild Hall will be destroyed again. Mirajane then sees Erza also join the fight, though she is unsurprised. When they find Lucy, she and the others listen to her as she explains how she became invisible. She then tries to calm Lucy down. As the guild toys with Lucy's face, Mirajane suggests making her hair black. After all their efforts fail, Mirajane takes a picture of Lucy from an article to replace Lucy's face. After Lucy vanishes, Mirajane and the others go back to their work, having forgotten about her. When Lucy turns back to normal, Happy spills the ointment, which makes everyone invisible except Lucy.

Whilst working in the veggie patches around the guild, the Take Over Siblings wonder what to do with Lisanna's grave at the church, since she is alive. Mirajane suggests keeping it as a memento but changing the inscription. The group then discuss the priest from the Magnolia church and his pilgrimage. After that, Mirajane and the others watch as Michelle arrives at the guild and explains to them why she came.

Meanwhile, at the guild, Mirajane, Wakaba, Macao, Elfman, Lisanna, Romeo and Kinana are discussing Laxus and his duel with Natsu. Elfman suddenly suggests that they should hold a festival in honor of the showdown and they all agree on it. Later, she intends to sing but is unable, due to having sore throat; so Gajeel sings in her place. She watches along with the rest of the guild as Natsu gets beaten by Laxus.

Take Over siblings trapped inside the slime

Mirajane returns with the rest of the guild to find Sugarboy, Mary Hughes and Coco asking for Lucy. When Sugarboy uses his Dog Whistle Magic, Elfman tries to attack, but is sucked into the green mucous. He warns Mirajane and Lisanna to stay back, but the two try to assist and also get sucked in and immobilized. The siblings are later freed but their Magic Power has been sapped and they are unable to move.

Afterwards, the three siblings go on a picnic. While Elfman cooks “man stew,” Lisanna asks Mirajane if is it okay to eat above a dangerous cliff, to which Mirajane replies with a smile.

After Lisanna empties the water from a lake the siblings find the clock piece they have been seeking. Elfman then goes to grab it but throws it in another direction, away from the group, which surprises them. They then find out it was Mary Hughes who made him do so. Mirajane asks if she had been following them and Mary confirms it with the clock piece at her feet.

Mirajane questions Mary's reasons for collecting the clock parts, only to call her a puppet when Mary says that she is just doing what she is told to. This enrages the other woman, who uses the second movement of her Command Magic on Mirajane, knocking her out and removing her Satan Soul; using it to attack Elfman and Lisanna. After Mirajane regains consciousness, she witnesses Elfman and Lisanna defeated by Satan Soul and asks Mary Hughes to stop. Mary, however, replies that now she is not a puppet anymore, but someone with power. With that, she attempts to destroy the three siblings with Satan Soul's Evil Orb.

Halphas form unleashed

Mirajane, however, unleashes her Halphas form and protects both herself and her siblings, much to everyone's horror and surprise. After Elfman remarks that this form is incredibly dangerous, he and Lisanna run away while their sister fights against Mary Hughes and her former Satan Soul. Mirajane remarks that although she loves Zentopia's teachings, people like Mary Hughes should not be members of it. Enraged, Mary Hughes decides to break the rules and use the Third Movement of her Command Magic, becoming now one with Satan Soul.

Mirajane defeats Mary Hughes

Regardless, Mirajane easily overpowers Mary Hughes in Hand to hand combat and defeats her with Halphas Blast after telling her that her biggest sin was stealing Satan Soul and using it right in front of her to harm her little brother and sister. Fretting what will happen next, Elfman remarks that Halphas is scary, she does not kill Mary however, who loses consciousness from the shock while Elfman further comments that Mirajane destroyed a city in this form like it was nothing. After this event, the Take Over siblings acquire the clock part.

Mirajane, Lisanna and Elfman arrive at the ruins along with the rest of the guild and their clock pieces. Mirajane assists as her guild mates attack Byro Cracy, but their attacks are all cancelled by the latter's Magic. The clock pieces start to glow and come together and Mirajane and the others watch as the clock pieces form the Infinity Clock. Just then the Reborn Oración Seis appear to the shock of the guild members.

Racer, with a defeated Mirajane in the background.

After the appearance of the Reborn Oración Seis, Mirajane witnesses the overwhelming strength of the former Dark Guild. She and her siblings become victims of Racer's attack, but they and their guildmates are saved by the guild Blue Pegasus. Mirajane is seen by Natsu, along with Gajeel and Elfman, after the Dragon Slayer wonders about everyone's fate.

After returning to the guild, Mirajane and the others discuss the Reborn Oración Seis and the Infinity Clock. They are shocked and confused when Kinana writes some mysterious words on the wall with a fork. Mirajane watches as Cana chooses the teams to find Oración Seis. Although Mirajane herself stays at the guild, Elfman forms a team with Natsu, Lucy and Michelle.

After it is revealed that Michelle is in fact Imitatia, the sixth member of Reborn Oración Seis, Elfman feels guilty about fleeing and leaving Natsu and Lucy to be taken by the enemy. Mirajane comforts him, saying that this was the best he could do. Soon after that, the archaeologists that Lucy's group encountered in the past appear at Fairy Tail, requesting to see her. Upon learning that she has been kidnapped, they explain to Mirajane and the rest of the Fairy Tail Mages that Real Nightmare has to be prevented at all costs. Convinced, Mirajane, along with Ichiya, Elfman and a few other Fairy Tail Mages, boards Christina in order to head for the Infinity Clock.

Mirajane decides to take on Racer

Soon after boarding on the magical airship, the group hears strange noises coming from the deck, and Mirajane volunteers to go and check what is going on, with Elfman following her. The Strauss siblings find that the stern has been broken, and Mirajane notices another presence on board, but is too late to identify the intruder and is attacked by Racer. Mirajane then, in order to protect Elfman and the other Mages, transforms into her Satan Soul and jumps from the deck, along with Racer, telling Elfman to leave this Dark Guild Mage to her. Although Racer overpowers her at the beginning, she then transforms to Demon Halphas, promising to defeat him at any cost.

Mirajane halts Racer's assault

Racer tries to get away from Mirajane, in order to destroy Christina, but soon Mirajane is able to easily keep up with him. Mirajane manages to catch up to her opponent and strike him down twice, asking him to stop the senseless fight, but Racer instead becomes even faster, surprising Mirajane. He becomes fast to the point that he is able to create illusions of himself and attack Mirajane at an incredible speed. Mirajane is being mercilessly assaulted and so the two Mages switch roles, as she runs away from Racer while trying to identify the real one. Once she knows which is the real Racer, she throws him to the ground, along with herself, creating a large crater.

Mirajane stands behind a defeated Racer

As Racer lies defeated, he demands to know why his opponent is faster than him, to which Mirajane replies that they are different, since she is moving forward and wants to protect her friends, whereas he is only running away from his past. She reveals that she used to be the same way too, but eventually managed to move forward, which made her strong. As Racer gets up and attempts to walk away, Mirajane tells him that there is no one will chase after him anymore. Mirajane then stands behind Racer, who falls to the ground and cries in defeat and redemption.

Grand Magic Games arc

Team Fairy Tail B

After the guild decides to join the Grand Magic Games, Mirajane, together with her teammates Elfman, Lisanna and Cana, hike out to the mountain to train and enhance their power. Upon returning from this training, Mirajane is chosen by Makarov to be part of Fairy Tail's Team B, along with Laxus, Gajeel, Juvia and Jellal Fernandes (disguised as Mystogan). She accepts after the offer prompts her to imagine Erza obeying her. The team ultimately bests Fairy Tail's Team A and places second in the preliminary rounds, defeated only by Team Sabertooth.

As the Grand Magic Games start, the first event, Hidden, is announced. Gray enters the event and loses, and when the battles start, both Lucy and Jellal lose as well. Later, Mirajane, along with the rest of the Fairy Tail Guild, heads to a local bar to celebrate Fairy Tail's terrible loss on the first day of the Grand Magic Games, and she and Erza each promise each other to do their best.

During the events of the second day, Chariot, everyone notices Natsu, Gajeel and Sting experiencing motion sickness as they're Dragon slayers. Mirajane wonders if Laxus also experiences such problems, to which he tells her not to say anything. As Natsu proclaims their entrance in the game is for their comrades, and as he and Gajeel win points for their teams, Mirajane smiles at them.

During the second match of the day's battle portion, when Elfman is called to battle Bacchus, Mirajane is shocked. She feels uneasy upon hearing Bacchus' wager in his and Elfman's bet. But upon her brother's victory, she expresses relief and happiness.

Mirajane posing in a swimsuit

In the next match, Mirajane is selected to fight against Team Blue Pegasus' reserve member, Jenny Realight. The match begins but it quickly turns into a swimsuit contest much to the delight of the males in the stadium.

Mirajane defeats Jenny

After modeling for a short while, the two talk and Mirajane suggests that they end their match peacefully. They do several more poses and both gain tying points in their contest. Jenny then makes a bet: the loser will have to appear nude in the next Sorcerer Magazine, which Mirajane accepts. When Jenny enters her battle mode, Mirajane responds by transforming into Satan Soul: Sitri and quickly defeats her, gaining 10 points for her team. She then tells an upset Jenny that she'll be looking forward to seeing her in her birthday suit. After the match, Mirajane says that she felt a bit embarrassed, while her teammates congratulate her, with Natsu (in his corner) saying that she is as strong as she was before.

During the third day's battle portion, Mirajane is extremely surprised to see what seems to be Laxus getting beaten around by "Alexei." She later expresses shock when she sees Laxus disappear and another Laxus popping up out of nowhere, with Raven Tail's members defeated and "Alexei" exposed as Ivan Dreyar. When Laxus is declared the winner, she is visibly pleased.

After Laxus's victory over Raven Tail, Wendy and Sherria's match begins. At some point during the battle, Wendy succeeds in countering Sherria's powerful Heavenly Gathering of Clouds, and Mirajane explains Sherria's Magic effect; she says that Sherria has the ability to heal her own injuries but cannot recover from her fatigue. Carla continues the explanation, saying that Wendy has the ability to recover fatigue and so she boosted Sherria's stamina to change the course of Sherria's attack.

Jenny pulls off Mirajane's top

Later that day the other Fairy Tail members are seen partying at a local bar for their successful day. She smiles as she watches Lisanna being forced by Natsu to barrel surf. Later, Mirajane and the other Fairy Tail members head off to Ryuzetsu Land. While there, she is confronted by Blue Pegasus member Jenny who proceeds to rip off the top of Mirajane's bathing suit, as revenge for beating her in their previous battle. Mirajane retaliates by pulling down the bottom of Jenny's bathing suit.

During the fourth day of the Grand Magic Games, Mirajane is seen asking how Juvia got pushed out of the water sphere when she got distracted. Later, Mirajane and Juvia come to the infirmary to check on Lucy. She guesses that Lucy has fallen asleep while hugging her keys. When Makarov arrives and says that they have to combine Team A and B, Mirajane asks why, to which he replies that since Team Raven Tail was disqualified, the guilds are uneven. When the new Fairy Tail team comes out, Mirajane says that this is the real meaning of the strongest team.

Mirajane watches the fight

As Natsu and Gajeel from the newly formed Team Fairy Tail enter the arena to battle Sabertooth's Sting and Rogue, Mirajane, alongside her guild mates, watches the match with confidence. The fierce battle between the Dragon Slayers takes place with both sides intensely fighting for the win. When Sting uses his Holy Nova, Mirajane is shocked by the impact the explosion causes.

As the battle continues, Mirajane is shocked to hear Sting say to Rogue that he alone is enough to beat both Natsu and Gajeel. Later, she anxiously watches with the rest of the guild to see the outcome of Natsu's battle. Mirajane is filled with joy when Natsu defeats Sabertooth's Sting and Rogue, placing team Fairy Tail in the lead with 45 points.

After hearing about Lucy's arrest by the Fiore Army, Mirajane listens as the Mages discuss the situation. While wondering about Lucy's arrest, Erza questions why the kingdom only arrested her and not the others, to which Mirajane replies that it'd be suspicious if they, as participants in the games, were arrested and didn't appear. As Makarov gives his take on the situation, Mirajane listens in. The next day, while Team Fairy Tail heads out for the final day of the games, Mirajane goes with Natsu, Wendy, Happy, Carla and Panther Lily on a mission to rescue Lucy.

Mirajane gets the others into the castle

On the way to Mercurius, Mirajane notes that the last fight of the games is about to start. While wondering about how to get into the castle unnoticed, the group puts on costumes as envisioned by Happy to disguise themselves. Mirajane considers the idea and puts on a hockey mask, but this is ultimately discarded. Some time later, Mirajane disguises herself as a palace guard and "captures" Wendy and Natsu, effectively sneaking all of them into the palace under the guise of putting them in the dungeon. Eventually, Mirajane and the others locate Lucy and Yukino in one of the cells. Upon finding them Natsu breaks down the door to free them both. Outside the cell, the floor collapses beneath Mirajane and the others, sending them down into an underground cavern known as "Abyss Palace." They begin looking around the place, searching for a way out.

Mirajane notices how Yukino resembles Lisanna

As the Exceed try finding a way out, Mirajane comments on how the kingdom captured them as they came to rescue their captured friend. As the others discuss the events, Mirajane points out to Lucy how Yukino resembles Lisanna, while telling Yukino that Lisanna is her sister. As a passage is found, Mirajane squeezes through and comes across a wounded Arcadios, who tells her and the rest to escape as they are attacked by a large shadowy figure. As more figures appear, Arcadios identifies them as the Garou Knights, executors working with the kingdom. Mirajane and her friends prepare to fight.

Mirajane alone with Kamika

Despite Natsu's laughter and lack of worry, Mirajane hears Arcadios warn the team that the Magic the knights use is created for killing people. As the team prepares to battle the knights, Mirajane notes it to be an opportunity to have them reveal the exit when they win. Once the battle begins, Mirajane activates her Satan Soul: Sitri and saves Wendy, who is targeted and nearly swallowed up by Cosmos' plant technique. Soon after, Cosmos and Kamika activate their combination attack, which nearly sucks the Mages inside. Working together, Mirajane, Panther Lily and Natsu use their Magic to destroy the technique, creating a large explosion as a result. In the aftermath, Mirajane finds herself separated from everybody else. Calling out worriedly for Lucy and Yukino, Mirajane is told by Kamika, who ended up in the same area as her, that she shouldn't look away from her.

Mirajane getting power during battle

As they begin fighting, Mirajane is attacked by Kamika's Paper Blizzard: Green Dance. Though she tries holding her breath as it surrounds her, Kamika reveals that the green paper is the God of poison, causing Mirajane to fully realize that the knights truly are trying to kill them. As she continues to struggle, Kamika suggests that Mirajane simply end it by dying. Mirajane replies by stating Magic shouldn't be used to kill people, though it is needed to protect others. She then explains that when people are looking, she holds back, but that when she's alone, she can release her full power. To Kamika's surprise, Mirajane then inhales the poison, which she calls a treat for a Demon such as herself. Going forward, Mirajane attacks Kamika, sending her crashing through the walls of the underground and eventually to the same place where the other defeated knights lay. With this, Mirajane also reunites with the rest of the rescue team.

Mirajane meets future Lucy

With the knights beaten, the team tries finding a way out of Abyss Palace. As they walk, Mirajane asks Loke how he came, to which he states he jumped. Soon after, Mirajane looks on as the group comes across a door which opens as they walk towards it. Suspecting it to be a trap, Mirajane and the rest stay back as a hooded figure appears. Natsu asks the figure who they are, at which point the figure begins crying and apologizing, asking for strength. Curious, Mirajane stays back before the figure reveals herself The figure is shown to be Lucy from the future, greatly surprising Mirajane. As she begins to talk about something that will happen to the country, she suddenly collapses. Mirajane talks to the Lucy of the present, who expresses feelings of being creeped out by another of her. Later, while trying to find a way out of the castle, Mirajane and the others end up getting lost. She cheerfully comments on how bothersome it is, before reminding her Guildmates that they need to maintain a good outlook with their King, since they're still in the Games. Soon after, the future Lucy awakens after having collapsed earlier and she begins to explain her situation with everyone.

Mirajane leaves to look for Yukino

Mirajane becomes worried as the Lucy from the future reveals that a herd of ten thousand Dragons will attack the country. She listens as the present Lucy doubts that the others will believe this, and Natsu assures her that they won’t. When the future Lucy expresses hesitation at Carla’s question about the future, Mirajane is stunned to think that they will die. When asked about the Eclipse, she reveals that she arrived on the fourth of July, and Mirajane states that she thought the Eclipse could take a person further back in time. The future Lucy tells them to meet Jellal by using an underground passage, as he should be thinking of a strategy. As she apologizes for not having one, Mirajane looks on as Natsu comes close to future Lucy's face and thanks for the information. While going through the underground, the group is confronted by the army. Rather than fight, Mirajane leaves to look for Arcadios and Yukino when she notices the latter is missing, telling everyone to be careful as she runs off.

Mirajane comforting Yukino

Desperate, Mirajane begins to look for Yukino all over the spacious castle. She eventually finds the former Sabertooth Mage leaning up against a wall, demanding at first to know what she was doing there, before beckoning for Yukino to come with her. As Yukino tearfully replies that she can't, as no matter who she travels with, misfortune is always one step behind her, Mirajane kindly replies that none of her friends at Fairy Tail ever blame others for their troubles, and embraces the former Sabertooth Mage. She tells her that it is okay, as everyone exists for a reason, and that no matter how small Yukino's might be, she still has one.

Later, as Lucy attempts to close the Eclipse Gate in order to get rid of the Dragons, Mirajane and Yukino arrive, with the latter combining her keys with Lucy and summoning all 12 Zodiac Spirits to close the door. Mirajane then notices Future Rogue, who arrives to the place noting that there are 7 Dragons present. When he announces the beginning of the Dragon age, Mirajane questions his motives, but receives no real reply.

Mirajane witnesses Zirconis' Magic

Mirajane and those near the castle are confronted by Zirconis, a Dragon whose soul was met by several Fairy Tail Mages previously. Wendy attempts to talk to him but the beast uses a breath attack which Mirajane protects her from by getting her down to the ground. Mirajane and the rest are shocked to see that the attack did not hurt anyone, rather, it vaporized the clothes of the soldiers and several others, with Mirajane referring to it as the first time she's seen something so pitiful.

Mirajane and Wendy confront Zirconis

With Lucy's clothes being vaporized as well, Zirconis laughs at Wendy's resolve to defeat him. As he kidnaps Lucy, Mirajane readies to attack, supported by Wendy's Arms X Vernier, however, they are thrown away by Zirconis' shock wave. She then transforms into her Satan Soul: Sitri form and attacks Zirconis. Her attack is proven to be ineffective, however, it works as a diversion as Wendy is able to land a hit with her Sky Dragon's Roar. Annoyed, Zirconis then throws Lucy into the air, and while Happy flies after her, Mirajane and Wendy claim that they will deal with Zirconis, and the two Mages stay and face him in an aerial battle.

Later, after Ultear uses Last Ages to rewind the time, Mirajane is seen fighting Motherglare's Hatchlings, when she suddenly states that she has just seen a glimpse of the future, with Evergreen claiming that she has also had such sensation. After the gate's destruction, Mirajane remains bewildered by her vicinity alongside the Thunder God Tribe, looking on as the Hatchlings and the Dragons disappear from their timeline.

Mirajane arrives at the Great Banquet

Several days after the battle with the Dragons, Mirajane, in a dressing room with Lucy, Wendy, Lisanna and Yukino, consoles an embarrassed Yukino about her appearance, stating that she looks gorgeous in her dress. Shortly thereafter, Mirajane and the others leave the dressing room and arrive at the Royal Palace where they are greeted by Elfman; Mirajane and her two siblings then converse at a nearby table. Mirajane then later accompanies Yukino as she approaches Sting and Rogue and looks at her with concern when she tries to leave after they notice her presence. Curious, Mirajane listens as Sting apologizes to Yukino for the way he and Sabertooth treated her; her curiosity turns to shock when Sting asks for Yukino to rejoin their guild, and even more so when an extremely drunk Kagura comes over to the group, demanding for Yukino to join Mermaid Heel instead.

Mirajane smiles at Yukino

All the teams from the Grand Magic Games soon speak up about Yukino joining their respective guilds and get into a fight, causing the young girl to break down in tears. Seeing this, Mirajane consoles the Celestial Spirit Mage, asking her not to cry; Yukino turns her head and smiles at Mirajane in spite of the tears streaming down her face, proclaiming herself to be happy, prompting Mirajane to smile back at Yukino, stating that she's glad that Yukino was finally able to smile and that she now has many different places to call home. Afterwards, everyone returns to their guilds. When Fairy Tail arrives to Magnolia, they are greeted by a mass of people happy with their victory in the Games. As Mirajane walks through the crowd waving and smiling at the people, they call her name.

Mirajane reading the job record

Mirajane cleans up with guild bar with Kinana while everyone is out dealing with the strange natural disasters that are occurring, and helps explain this to Natsu, Lucy and Happy when they return to find the guild empty. After they learn that all the good jobs have been taken, Mirajane and Kinana hand the three a job that specifically needs Lucy in a town called Seabellus. Later, when Yukino shows up in the guild, Mirajane and all those that returned from their jobs listen as she explains that her Gold Keys aren't working, that she doesn't know the reason, and that Lucy's other ten most probably aren't working either.

Mirajane coming to her friends' aid

After Lucy and the others arrive at the guild, after Crux updates them on the situation, Yukino informs the guild about a ritual called Liberum that she found in an ancient test, causing Crux to reveal that Liberum is a ritual that the Celestial Spirits perfom in order to achieve "perfect freedom". When they suggest gathering more info, Levy notes that the Magic Library contains and vast collection of books. After Makarov puts Erza in charge, she signs Mirajane and Elfman together. Mirajane, along with the other Fairy Tail Mages, arrives as a reinforcement to help the main group through the use of Warren's Telepathy. This causes the Celestial Spirits to return to their gates due to being outnumbered. After taking one of Hisui's Celestial Spirit Banishment Keys, Mirajane tracks down Pisces, who await her at the beach.

Underwater, Mirajane manages to gain the advantage in her fight after going into her Satan Soul form against Pisces. After thwarting a maneuver by her opponents, Mira sends the pair above water and releases Magic Power to conjure an explosion, making quick work of them. Apologizing for using excessive force, Mira offers one last piece of advice to the Mother and Son spirits prior to closing their gate.

Mirajane and Elfman destroy Astral Spirytus

After reuniting with the Mages who have closed their spirits' gates, they decide to go looking for Natsu and the others. As they venture through, they hear Ophiuchus' voice. After being informed that the Celestial Spirit King was the one responsible about Liberum, Levy informs Mirajane and the others about Liberum Verus. and that the only way to stop Liberum is by destroying the Trinity: Ophiuchus, Astral Spirytus and the Celestial Globe all at the same time. The Mages then mobilize, destroying every last bit of the place. As the Mages deliver the last strike, Lucy, Yukino and Hisui strike the Globe with Gottfried and Natsu defeats Ophiuchus with his Darkness Phoenix Blade. After reuniting, the Mages wounder about the current situation. Horologium then appears, stating that Liberum was completed and the Eclipse Celestial Spirit King is demolishing the Celestial World at the moment. After receiving some Celestial Clothing, Mirajane and Elfman ready themselves to go the Celestial World. After being sucked by the Eclipse King, Mirajane and the others find them selves confronted by a giant beast, who Lucy recognizes as the Spirit King.

Erza signals them to attack, but in vain as all of their attacks turn ineffective. The Celestial King then starts turning every Mage in front of him into a sky constellation, were Mirajane, Cana and Elfman are caught in a blast. After the defeat of the King, Mirajane is turned back to normal alongside her comrades. She the listens as the Celestial Spirit King, now back to normal, thanks the Mages regarding the past events, although not clearly remembering them. After that, Mirajane and the others return to their world. Sometime after that, while Asuka and Natsu are sitting at the bar, the little girl asks for some cake, in which Mirajane that they've run out of it, much to her dismay. Days later, when Juvia ask about a gift to get to Gray, Mira states that the best gift is home-made one, giving an idea to the Water Mage.

Mirajane transforming into a fish

After being asked by Lucy, Mirajane decides to teach her , plus Natsu and Happy, her Transformation Magic where she explains the basic principles and theories of Transformation, before going through the three main stages. She then watches as three try out their Magics. Suddenly, havoc is heard in town, with Mirajane and the others coming to see the cause, just to find both Macao and Wakaba, having performed a malfunctioning transformation, as they were eavesdropping on her explanation. She then watches as Erza, disguised as Fairy Woman, arrive, taking down the two, causing her to turn "real". A few days later, Mirajane is seen serving some drinks, as Happy reads in the news that Fairy Woman saved Magnolia again. When Natsu and Happy, broke, start moaning about not having money for food, Mirajane questions how did they spent all the money from their last job. She then tries to calm down an enraged Lucy who scolds the two fot attempting to sell her novel. When she tells them to take a job, Mirajane informs her that there is only one job and that it requests only Laxus.

Sun Village arc

Mirajane takes a bath with the girls

Following their return, Mirajane sings as she takes a bath with the Fairy Tail girls. She comments on the recent increase of job requests Fairy Tail has received since their victory over at the Grand Magic Games, revealing that she is completely busy and does not know where to start. She then reassures Lisanna when she finds it odd that Natsu and Gray went out on a mission together, claiming that they started to treat themselves better recently. She keeps on bathing as Flare enters their bath-house and reveals to the crowd of girls that Raven Tail is no more.

Tartaros arc

Mirajane and Erza head out

After Team Natsu, along with Wendy and Carla, returns to Fairy Tail, Mirajane is asked by Macao and the others to bring out the alcohol. She, in conjunction with several Fairy Tail Mages, stares in amazement at the gates when a frantically screaming Jet walks in claiming to bring with him terrible news. Mirajane, with the rest of the guild, later watches as Porlyusica walks out of the infirmary and informs them that the defeated Laxus, Yajima and Thunder God Tribe are in critical condition and may not make a full recovery. She then holds Lisanna close to her as Makarov lies to Fried about the casualties involving the village they fought Tempester in.

Soon after the locations of several former council member are made known, the Fairy Tail Mages head out to become their protection. As preparations are made, Mirajane looks over Laxus as he rests in bed. Having heard what he did from Fried, she tells Laxus that he cares a great deal for his friends and they will remember his courage. After discovering the former chairman's address, Mirajane and Erza quickly head to his location on top of a reindeer. They shortly stop on their way to take a break, with Mirajane mentioning that Jellal is surely a target as well. Erza, however, states that Jellal can defend himself on his own.

Mirajane fights the intruders

The two eventually reach the home of Crawford Seam, the former chairman of Magic Council. Mirajane enjoys herself with a cup of tea before the ex-chairman questions their purpose for coming. Mirajane apologizes for the guild looking for him and his address and Crawford proceeds to recall the past when he used to deal with Fairy Tail. Mirajane interrupts this and Crawford eventually reveals that nor himself neither the three ex-councilors that are supposed to protect the Face know of its location. Suddenly, Mirajane and Erza notice someone's presence and knowing it's the attackers, they tell Crawford to return to his room while they face the intruders, with Mirajane using Satan Soul to battle them. The two, fighting as a team for the first time, eventually defeat the enemies, although they find it odd that no strong opponent was sent to kill the former chairman. At that moment, Mirajane and Erza fall down unconscious and Crawford proceeds to take them, while announcing to Kyôka that two subjects have been captured. Mirajane and Erza are then taken to the Tartaros HQ and while the latter is tortured for information, Mirajane is forced to undergo Kyôka's transformation process in order to become the Demon's slave, much to Erza's horror.

Mirajane wakes up

Mirajane, unconscious, later appears in one of Kyôka's facilities. Lamy, a Demon from Kyôka's squad, states that even though she doesn't care about girls, she might modify Mirajane's body and proceeds to threaten her, claiming that her pretty face will be no more after she's done with her. As she is about to do so, Mirajane regains consciousness and breaks from the facility, much to Lamy's shock and horror. Mirajane reveals that she already possesses Demon Particles and Lamy trying to insert them into her body just caused her to wake up.

As she wanders around, Mirajane is found by Lisanna, who quickly rushes to her side and hugs her. Questioning what Lisanna is doing in Tartaros, Mirajane is shocked to hear that both she and Elfman were captured. Before the duo can act, both women are approached by Seilah, who states that Elfman was possessed and made to blow up the Fairy Tail Guild; however, before they can stress, the Demon continues that she miscalculated, as Elfman failed to kill anyone at all. With Mirajane and Lisanna relaxing to hear that their friends are safe, Seilah suddenly becomes glaringly angry, stating that she will take Mirajane's life as compensation for her embarrassment. Realizing Seilah is the one who harmed her siblings, Mirajane glares straight back demonically. Mirajane and Seilah then engage each-other in combat, and Mirajane is impressed by Seilah's strength. Mirajane is continuously struck down by Seilah's books, leading her to ponder if this is the power of a true Demon.

Mirajane is thrown into Lamy and Lisanna

With neither Mirajane nor Seilah managing to get the upper-hand in their battle, Seilah pauses to question Mirajane's abilities, commenting that her Macro seems to not be working on the Fairy Tail Mage. Not understanding, Mirajane is hastily informed by Lisanna about Seilah's Curse, and how the Demon has the ability to manipulate the bodies of those she chooses, Seilah herself adding that she doesn't even need to be present to control those she has taken over. Before they can continue, both women are interrupted by Ezel, who appears in one of the tanks surrounding them. Cursing someone profusely, the Demon demands that Seilah revive him at once, though Seilah refuses, asking him to wait until she is finished in her battle. Questioning what Ezel is doing at their location, Mirajane listens as Lamy explains that they are currently standing in Hell's Core, a laboratory where the members of Tartaros can be revived if they are ever injured and lose their bodies. Mirajane then decides that her top priority should be destroying the lab, surprising Seilah, who questions her abilities. However, at that very moment all of the test tubes in the lab explode, Mirajane revealing that due to her Take-Over Magic's properties, she was able to take control of the tentacle-like Demon connected to all of the tanks, using it to destroy them all. Now understanding Mirajane's Magic, Seilah reasons that that must be why her Curse doesn't seem to work; Mirajane too comments that she cannot seem to use Take-Over on Seilah's body. Recognising the nature of their battle now, both women relent to having a fist fight instead. Mirajane uses Satan Soul: Sitri, though Seilah shocks her by using her Curse on own body, commanding it to release her strongest form. Taking on a fearsome appearance, Seilah surges forward, catching Mirajane off guard and hurtling her into Lisanna and Lamy before blasting them with a surge of energy. Down and forced out of her Satan Soul form, Mirajane struggles to get up once more.

Mirajane is assaulted further by Seilah

Unable to compete with Seilah in terms of power, Mirajane once again attempts to use her Take Over Magic to control the Demon. Seilah comments on the futility of her actions, and activates her Macro to tear apart Mirajane's body, the Fairy Tail Mage screaming in pain as the Demon assaults her. Thinking back to the event where she had acquired Take Over, Mirajane reminds herself of the dedication she and her siblings have with one another. Motivated to fight back, she grabs onto Seilah's leg and successfully applies her Take Over ability on the Demon, gaining Seilah's Macro ability and using it to command Elfman to come to the aid of his family. Later, it turns out that Mirajane and her siblings are joined by Jet, Droy and Warren, with the Telepathy Mage informing the rest of the Fairy Tail Mages about this. However, Mard Geer soon puts his Curse into effect and Mirajane, along with the rest of the Mages, ends up being caught by the transformed Cube. Mirajane is later seen to be released from Alegria, the dispelling courtesy of the Celestial Spirit King. However, she, along with a few more Mages, are then attacked by Lamy's clones, which Seilah takes advantage of to flee into the control room. While Elfman, Lisanna, Jet, Droy and Warren deal with the clones, Mirajane pursues the Demon.

Mirajane strikes Seilah

Some time later, Mirajane appears in Tartaros' control room. At great speed and in her Satan Soul mode, she grabs Seilah's face and throws her onto a wall, releasing Erza and others from the Demon's Macro. Having used all of her Magic, Mirajane reverts to her human form and, lying on the ground, watches in horror as Kyôka exclaims that Face will soon activate. She begs Erza to destroy the weapon and Titania dons her Armadura Fairy to fulfill this plea. As the battle continues, Happy questions Lisanna's whereabouts and Mirajane explains that they are dealing with an army of Lamy's models. She, as well as everyone else in the ruins of Cube, then notice a sound signifying the arrival of the Dragon King, Acnologia. She watches in disbelief, still completely exhausted, as the Dragon causes mass destruction.

Mirajane watches the Face timer

Later, as the battle between Erza and Kyôka progresses, Mirajane is hit by the Demon's Curse, causing her to be blown away. After the battle is over, an exhausted Mirajane witnesses the timer of Face reaching zero with a worried expression. She then watches as all the Face devices across the continent begin to activate, noting that the Magic will now disappear. However, the Dragons appear to destroy all Faces, to which Mirajane reacts with a happy expression. After the war ends, Mirajane locates the dying Seilah's body and completely takes her over, saving her life, but robbing her of her body and granting Mirajane complete access to her appearance and Macro ability.

Eventually, the returning Dragons regroup near the befuddled Mages, Mirajane standing next to the others as the Dragons commend them for their efforts and reveal that their time on Earth Land will soon come to an end. She later watches as the Dragons ascend into the skies and bid farewell, claiming that they will always watch over the humans. One week later, Mirajane stands in front of the ruins of their guild and asks if Makarov is not going to rebuild the guild this time, to which Makarov confirms.

Avatar arc

After receiving a letter from Lucy, Mirajane, along with her siblings, shows up in Magnolia Town to meet with her former guildmates. When she sees Lucy, she welcomes her "home," something which brings Lucy to tears.

Alvarez Empire arc

Mirajane watches the brawl

When Levy convinces Wendy and the others that there are no legal loose ends when it comes to the guild's revival, but instead expresses her concerns about the next master, Mirajane optimistically tells her not to worry. When the reconstruction effort turns into an open guild brawl, Mirajane thinks to herself that she is happy no one blames Elfman for destroying the guild, as that is the reason he became strong. However, a bottle comes flying in her direction and hits her on the head, interrupting her train of thought. Later, Mirajane listens as Gajeel tells her, Cana, Juvia, and Panther Lily that they are forming a "B-Team" in order to find Laxus. She joins up with the rest, although she is seen confused about the team's purpose.

Mirajane joins the team to look for Laxus

Going in search of the other members, the group arrives at their intended location. Mirajane questions if there was a point in splitting the teams, while Gajeel states they wouldn't stand a chance in a fight and that he is not even sure an infiltration mission will succeed. Levy then arrives, stating that they need separate teams to raise their chance of success, before asking how they could leave her behind. Later, they all head to the Pegasus Village hot springs to relax. There they meet up with Ichiya, who tells them that Laxus and the Thunder God Tribe have joined Blue Pegasus, this information greatly shocking Mirajane.

Mirajane claims that she has gotten stronger

Inside the airship of Christina, Mirajane and the B-team greet the rescue team after they are teleported inside by Mest. Lisanna says to Gray that their group has done work on their own, in order to save their master, while Mirajane remarks that a part of that work was finding Laxus. Along with her fellow Mages, Mirajane then watches as Makarov tears up over seeing his family reunited. Once Makarov is back at the guild and resumes his role as Master, saying that this will kill him, Mirajane reminds him that he also said that in the past. When Erza asks for some star mangoes, Mirajane admits that she's never heard of them. Mirajane then agrees once Natsu says that they must defeat Alvarez if they want to survive and still be together as a guild. As they all prepare for the unavoidable battle, Mira reveals that she has been training and getting stronger this last year, shocking Macao and Wakaba, in the process. Suddenly, they are interrupted by Mavis, who intends to reveal to Mirajane and the other Mages the secrets of Fairy Heart, The One Magic as well as her relationship with Zeref.

Mirajane unveils her acquisition from the battle against Tartaros

After Mavis finishes her story, Mirajane is shocked to learn that Fairy Heart is an infinite supply of Magic Power. The First Master then gets upset over dragging everyone into battle, but everyone agrees that it's not her fault. Afterwards, the topic of Zeref's immortality is brought up, and Natsu mentions that his right arm is something that can do the job, but he refuses to tell what it is. When Makarov goes over all the information he gathered about the Alvarez Empire, Mirajane is shocked to hear that August's knowledge in Magic may be greater than that of Zeref. Standing with her sister, Mirajane is alerted to the arrival of Alvarez as the Empire commences their attack. Later, sensing that Alvarez has broken through Fried's Jutsu Shiki barrier, Mirajane and her siblings run to the source of the infiltration. Very quickly, the three arrive, and Mirajane unveils a new Satan Soul: Mirajane Seilah; having revealed to have taken over Seilah after the Tartaros war to save her life. She then uses the power of Macro to put most of the oncoming forces to sleep; those that were able to resist her power she remarks have to be dealt with by force. As Ajeel Raml utilizes his strongest spell, Sand World, completely surrounding the town of Magnolia with masses of sand, Mirajane covers herself up so as to shield herself from the raging sandstorm.

Mirajane's true weakness is revealed

As the sandstorm dissipates, Mirajane and the others notice five mechanical beings standing before them. Mirajane is punched repeatedly by one, but does not retaliate as it is donning the face of her little brother, Elfman. Her comrades face similar trouble as they one by one realize that their foe is specifically designed to exploit their weaknesses. As Mirajane and the others wonder how this is possible, Wall Eehto explains that exploiting his opponent's weaknesses is the ability of his Magic, Weakness. However, Mirajane and the others determine that to defeat the robots all they have to do is switch opponents, so Mirajane takes on Lisanna's "brute strength" robot and easily defeats it. Afterwards, she asks after Erza's condition, and is told that the knight requires rest. Suddenly, the group is surprised by a huge explosion in Kardia Cathedral and they begin to wonder about the safety of Fried's team.

Mirajane gets ready for battle

In the brief respite after the victory in their first battle, Mirajane and the other Fairy Tail members lay their plans for the upcoming skirmishes. Mirajane is part of the group meant to support Sabertooth and Blue Pegasus, who are moving to intercept the army to the north. When the Guild obtains news of Natsu's lone charge at Zeref, Mirajane asks Mavis for orders, calmly listening as the First Master refuses to change their original stratagem. Mirajane then heads out to reinforce their allies on the northern front, stopping only to sleep for the night. She prepares to fight alongside her guildmates the next day, but is devastated by the sight that awaits them as Alvarez have vanquished Blue Pegasus and Sabertooth, carrying the unconscious Mages on huge, vertical wooden crosses as trophies. Numb with shock, she weakly utters Yukino's name. Immediately regaining her faculties, Mirajane rescues and tends to Yukino. Although surprised by the abrupt change of the frozen battlefield to one resembling a field of blooms, she stands firm against the enemy's assault and soon engages the Empire's soldiers in melee combat alongside her siblings. However, she ceases fighting as a strange luminescence on the horizon catches her eye, startled to later discover herself transported to an unknown beach alongside her guildmates who were supposedly back in Magnolia. She tries to explain the occurrence when Alzack announces the approach of enemy troops; when they come, she subsequently helps ward them off.

Mirajane is shot by August

When the Fairy Tail forces begin to head north after receiving Zera's telepathic message, Mirajane wonders about Elfman's whereabouts, but is reassured by Lisanna that their brother would also be heading for the Guild. Suddenly, they are attacked by Heine and Juliet of the Irene Squad, the elder Strauss opting to defeat the girls while her guildmates continue north. Although she realizes that she has underestimated her opponents, the demonic Take Over Mage reveals that she has harvested the souls of Tartaros' members and pulverizes her enemies using Satan Soul: Mirajane Alegria. Drained of her Magic power, the realization that the girls were nothing more than swords enchanted to have a personality causes her to ponder the existence of a Mage capable of such a feat, even as the swords' owner, Irene, descends behind her and captures her. She proceeds to torture Mirajane in order to exact vengeance for her creations, but is forced to desist when August, accompanied by Brandish, arrives and demands that Irene return to Zeref's side, the Wizard King mortally wounding a terrified Mirajane when his ally protests that she has yet to kill her prey. However, as the Shields of Spriggan leave, Brandish shrinks the wound and the Fairy Tail Mage is later found and supported by Lisanna, whom she informs about the convening of the Spriggan 12.

The two reunite with their allies in time to aid them in launching an assault upon the Empire's entire army, Mirajane engaging Jacob despite their mutual discomfort regarding her tattered and revealing attire. Mirajane eventually puts her discomfort aside and confidently stares her foe down. In spite of this, she is still pushed back, even with Jacob having closed his eyes. Their fight, however, is interrupted by the voice of Irene Belserion booming throughout the battlefield in search of Mavis; simply hearing her voice causes Mirajane to shiver with fear. The fight is interrupted yet again with Makarov's casting of Fairy Law, which causes Mirajane to curiously look at the sky.

Right after Irene's death and Universe One's dispelling (which puts the country back to normal), Mirajane manages to defeat Jacob, but notes that she was only able to do so because he kept his eyes closed.
