What's the status of the OP's request in this case?

The original Japanese version of the sources takes precedence over the English translations, so if the original Japanese doesn't state that Mikasa was adopted, and there's no actual confirmation that she was adopted, then it should be changed. This wouldn't be the first time that Kodansha USA makes a mistake (they said that Abel Reiss was a boy, for example). I need to consult this with someone more fluent in Japanese.
