Mira may be a side character but she can still kick butt! When she fought with Azure she, herself, stated she didn't have enough magical power left to challenge him but she was able to hold him off for a little while and just from punches, kicks, and some flashy lights in her weakest form, Azuma stated that he felt incredible magical energy/power coming from her. Ezra was in her best shape and the fight was like 20 minutes and she was getting her butt kicked until she had one of those "Erza friendship moments" and somehow beat the guy. Another thing, Mira beat Sayla! She didn't lose! She was also able to take over CURSE which isn't a dirty parlor trick, its a kind of magic but I doubt Nakagami Armor can cut through it. Erza can't be in Nakagami Armor for a long time, she can have like 10 swings of the blade then she's out of magical power but would whoop some booty with her love for her friends. Mira doesn't get the whole friendship speech because she's not a main character but she would sacrifice herself for her siblings which is also love because it doesn't matter how much you say you love somebody, its your actions and Mira is truly in love which gives her strength.
