But She Is Always Ready To Help Her Fellow Heroes In Need

As much as Mirko works alone and does not have any team members, she is quite a team player, as she will not stand aside when her fellow heroes are in trouble.

4 Emotionally Resilliant
Mirko Is Excited To Be In A Dangerous Situation

Most heroes tend to dislike extremely dangerous situations, but Mirko loves them and never shies away from them.

My Hero Academia: Season 6 Episode 2, Review
Team Endeavor and the Nemus' battle intensifies while Team Edge Shot infiltrates the villainous headquarters in the latest episode of My Hero Academia
This episode is dedicated to Mirko, as it is titled Mirko, The No. 5 Hero. As she faces the Nomus in Garaki’s laboratory, she unleashes her powerful kick, destroying whatever comes in her way, be it the Nomus or the tank that occupies them. This battle against the High-End Nomus was an intense one, and even the Nomus were shocked by Mirko’s tenacity, as she did not even let her broken limbs distract her from carrying out her hero duties.
3 Intelligent
She Is A Quick Thinker
- Episode: Season 6, Episode 2
During this episode, Mirko battled with the High-End Nomus, and she gave the fight her all. During the fight, she got injured and broke some of her limbs. She did not let these painful injuries sway her, as she quickly cut off the blood flowing to her limbs to enable her to keep fighting.
Her thinking was not impaired by her injuries, as she quickly took action to prevent herself from being vulnerable in the midst of her opponents, who were determined to kill her. Mirko also dodged a deadly attack at the very last minute with her powerful legs, and even the Nomus were bewildered when she came launching at them a few seconds later.
2 Selfless
She Is Ready To Die For The Greater Good
- Episode: Season 6, Episode 4
When she fought against the High-End Nomus, things got out of hand after they got stabilized—that is, they got awakened—and Mirko noticed a change. She realized that she had not gotten weaker, but her opponents had gotten stronger. She immediately realizes that the fight is not going to end in her favor and goes after the brains behind the operation—the professor, Doctor Garaki.
Mirko was ready to die as long as she took the doctor down with her. The Nomus were able to inflict more injuries on her as she raced towards the doctor and the machine that housed Tomura Shigaraki. She was able to destroy the machine, much to the doctor's dismay, and luckily, she did not die but was severely injured by the time Endeavour and some other heroes came in to support her.
1 Physically Strong
She Has A High Stamina
- Episode: Season 6, Episode 2
This episode showcased Mirko’s high stamina, something that most heroes in the My Hero Academia world lack. It is safe to say that there are only a handful of heroes that would have fought for as long as Mirko did against the high-end Nomus before backup showed up.
Even after sustaining injuries, Mirko’s drive never reduced; it only increased. If the Nomus had not been awakened, it is safe to assume that Mirko would have single-handedly defeated a whole lot of them before the other heroes showed up.
