No, you cannot legally marry a fictional character.
Marriage is a legal contract between two living individuals recognized by the state. Fictional characters do not exist in reality and therefore cannot enter into such a contract.
While some people may have strong emotional attachments to fictional characters and hold personal ceremonies to celebrate their love, these are not legally binding.
Practical Considerations:
- Legal Recognition: Marriage provides legal protections and benefits like inheritance rights, spousal benefits, and tax advantages, none of which apply to fictional characters.
- Existence and Capacity: Marriage requires the consent and legal capacity of both parties. As fictional characters are not real people, they lack both.
Although a legal marriage is not possible, individuals can express their love and devotion to fictional characters through various means like fan art, cosplay, or attending conventions.
