Lady Deathstrike - Yuriko Oyama, was not Wolverine's girlfriend. His girlfriend was Mariko Yashida. in the cartoon they were mashed into the same person, but not in the comic. In the comic Yuriko became his sworn enemy after Logan killed her father - the man who devised the adamantium bonding process.
the movie eliminated the enmity between Deathstrike and Wolverine by making her nothing more than Stryker's automaton bodyguard.
