I was well aware of where we left off with the Mirror Universe in that they initially were on their hound being attacked by the Klingon - Cardassian Alliance .

So in my mind , it seems unconvincing that they would all just be good guy cable now . particularly because them making major reform to their lodge with Mirror Spock ultimately , as posit in DS9 , is what allowed their society to collapse and become vulnerable to the other outside forces . So we think at least some faction would probably be like , ‘ We have to go back to the old way ’ . And that ’s how we get the authoritative sleeveless shirt and the tongue they have attached to their little holsters .

And I opine when you talk about the Mirror Universe , I hump a quite a little of people think it ’s overdone , but I ’m like you , I make love it . And there ’s a reason that it ’s only in for like eight minutes of the sequence , but who did n’t want to see that ? Come on . And so , we thought that at least some of the Mirror Universe might say , ‘ Let ’s return to our older ways and take form the unexampled Terran Armada . ’ And that ’s where we get to Mirror Janeway , which was generally revolutionize in some aspects by the Mirror Janeway we see in Star Trek Online , but we added our own touches too .
