Synonym : Demon Woman

Mirajane "Demon Woman" Strauss is a 19-year-old S-Class wizard who serves as a barmaid and administrator at Fairy Tail, and occasionally appears as a cover girl on the fictional Sorcerer's Weekly magazine. Her name comes from a video game Hiro Mashima was playing while creating her character. She is a very cheerful, kindhearted, yet somewhat absentminded young woman who rarely displays anger towards others. During Mirajane's childhood, she is rambunctious and has a particularly fierce rivalry with Erza Scarlet. She and her young siblings Elfman and Lisanna use Take Over magic to transform into creatures they have previously encountered. Mirajane's specific variety, Satan Soul , grants her the ability to transform into a demon with enhanced physical speed and strength. She can also mimic other people's physical appearance and voice. After Lisanna disappears when she is 17 years old, Mirajane loses her Take Over powers and retires from working on missions. Two years later, Mirajane regains her powers and duels with Fried Justine to a draw. She and Lucy host the "Emergency Request! Explain the Mysteries of Fairy Tail" sections at the ends of the manga volumes where they answer reader questions. In the Japanese version of the series, Mirajane is voiced by Ryōko Ono. In the English dub, she is voiced by Monica Rial
