Mariko came from Clan Yashida, a family within the Yakuza. She was the daughter of Shingen Yashida and had ties to the criminal underworld. Mariko became attracted to Wolverine as well, to the point that she would visit him frequently in the US. Logan returned to Japan to see Mariko, only to find out that her father married her off to another member of the Yakuza. Even though her husband physically abused her, Mariko felt honour bound to continue the marriage.
Shingen manipulated Wolverine into giving into his rage, which caused him to be involved in the assassination of a rival gang member. Mariko witnessed Wolverine in a feral state, making her afraid of him.
Mariko eventually discovered that her father was honourless. She planned to slay him and commit seppuku in order to maintain the honour of her family. Mariko saw Logan as a principled warrior, with the two of them agreeing to marry. However, the marriage was called off when Mariko was under the mind control of the supervillain Mastermind.
To preserve her honour and to avoid a painful death, Mariko asked Wolverine to mercy kill her. Logan reluctantly agreed. He chose to honour her memory by mutilating Tsurayaba on the anniversary of her death every year.
Mariko is the physical manifestation of his quest for honour. As a ronin, Logan felt he needed to prove something and looked to Mariko as an opportunity to better himself. An example of this is when Logan dreamed that he was a lone samurai facing down an entire army in order to reach Mariko in a castle. Despite his most valiant efforts, Logan was overwhelmed and the dream version of Mariko chose to kill him, seeing him as nothing more than an honourless dog. It could be argued that he held Mariko on a pedestal, viewing her in an idealised manner.
This story is at the centre of Tanabata , also known as the Star Festival. Every year, people celebrate Tanabata by writing wishes on paper and placing them on bamboo branches. The festival is a celebration of love.
As the Tanabata story goes, Orihime was the daughter of the Sky King Tentei and wove stunning dresses every day. Tentei arranged for his daughter to meet a cow herder called Hikoboshi. The two instantly fell in love and married quickly. The marriage was happy, but Orihime no longer wove cloth and Hikoboshi let his cows wander.

Yashida : Mariko, it's me! Your grandfather! Mariko : [stabs him again] I buried my grandfather! Mariko : Am I wrong to think you might visit me soon? Mariko : Stay. Logan : I can't, Princess. I'm a soldier, and I've been hiding too long. Logan : I was here when it happened. It's how I met your grandfather. We hid in there. Mariko : I heard the stories. My grandfather would say what happened was proof that everything in the world finds peace. That man can recover from anything. Maybe you, too.
Logan : [sees a picture] This is the guy from the funeral, the archer. He was your boyfriend. Mariko : That's Harada. We were village champions that summer. He with the bow and me with the knives. Logan : So, where are we headed, Mariko? Logan : Where are we going? Mariko : I'm going to the end of the line. My family has a home in the South. Logan : That's stupid. No offense, but they're gonna know to look for you there.
Mariko : Not this place. Logan : Look, you wanna be left alone? Mariko : Yes. Logan : I understand. Mariko : Do you? Logan : Oh, yeah. Trust me. Problem is, if I do that, I don't think you're gonna live to see the end of the day. You can't pretend shit isn't happening when it is, Princess, unless you want to die. In that case, you're playing this perfectly.
Harada : The Viper woman is evil, but we both know that. But she's a mean to an end. An end your grandfather wanted. You need to trust me. Is that hard? We were meant to be together. We still can be. Mariko : Perhaps.
