canon

"Canon" is a term used by fans of anime and manga. Two characters that end up as a couple in the end of a series is considered canon. Canon can also be counted for when two characters don't end up as a couple in the end due to complications, but proclaim that they love each other anyway.

IzumixMeroko was canon in the manga but not the anime because Meroko continued to love Takuto.
