@elevown It's implicit in the fact that Nanoha and Fate tried to adopt Vivio together in StrikerS, but only Nanoha could be registered as Vivio's legal guardian, and Fate had to figure only as their daughter's godmother in the papers, which is fine since it's only a legal issue and Vivio still saw both Nanoha and Fate as her mothers. The thing in Japan is that even with the legal unions for homosexual couples that are available in some cities, homosexual couples still can't adopt together as the child's two guardians, that a right restricted only to married couples. Now, as most people that follow Nanoha after Vivid they would know that starting from chapter 1 of Vivid and in all the secondary material and live events from that date they started referring to both Nanoha and Fate as Vivio's guardians, we started getting a lot of official NanoFate wedding artworks for the first time that even made their way to the cover of magazines, and it was a subtle but big thing in Japan back then, not that the couple wasn't canon before that but it's always nice to have more married yuri couples.
@EvelineClariss That sounds misleading, and is not very accurate to the canon material, their relationship has been canon for so long that their very active sexual life became a running joke on Vivid Life and live events. The last paragraph is fine though.
@Moedred Yeah, they were portrayed as a married couple since before they took the step, there are ton of stuff like your pic that never left the magazines.
