Most of the women are suspicious - that's not something you hear on a typical dating show. And that's exactly why Is She the Wolf?, streaming on Netflix every Sunday starting June 11 in Japan, is set to make for riveting reality viewing. Outside of Japan, all episodes will be released on Netflix in September 2023.
The premise: five men and five women search for true love as they get to know one another on dates and by embarking on a group project. The twist: lurking among the female participants are an unknown number of lying wolves' who are not allowed to fall in love, and they must make it to the end without being found out or accepting anyones confession of love.
That means all the contestants who are not wolves', as well as the audience, are constantly trying to figure out if the connections that are blossoming on the show are really the beginnings of true romance, or simply the deceptive manoeuvres of the wolves'.
Actress Nako Yabuki, one of the studio commentators for the show (and the source of the opening quote above), says of these wolves': If the wolf' falls in love with someone, that must be hard for her. But it would also be fun to try and see through people's lies.
This show was developed in partnership with ABEMA from their series Who is the Wolf, which garnered over 300 million total views across 13 seasons. Now making its debut on Netflix as Is She the Wolf?, it will feature participants between the ages of 22 and 32 who work as actors, artists, models and athletes.
Is She the Wolf? will feature participants between the ages of 22 and 32 who work as actors, artists, models and athletes.
Comedian Natsuko Yokosawa, model Karen Takizawa, RIKU from dance and vocal group THE RAMPAGE, and Nako Yabuki are the studio commentators giving their take on every episode's twists.
The Netflix version is much more mature. The contestants are adults, so it has a much different vibe from the other seasons. It will leave you speechless and on the edge of your seat, says Yokosawa, who has been a commentator for every season of the Who is the Wolf series.
Takizawa, who joined the panel in 2020, says of the series: It reminds me of my own experiences. It's heart-wrenching at times and gratifying at others. It's like a photo album that makes you think back on your blissful days and gives you a glimpse into the future.
As for new commentator RIKU, here are his impressions after taping the two episodes: I'm exhausted in a good way with emotional ups and downs! But that just goes to show how wonderful this series is. It's great seeing everyone's passion.
Is She the Wolf? streams exclusively on Netflix in Japan beginning June 11 at 10:00 p.m., with new episodes streaming each Sunday at the same time. Outside Japan, all episodes will be released on Netflix in September 2023.
