Is She the Wolf? (2023)

Mature adults trying to find love for three months while taking pictures of romantic places in Japan

The show's premise is that there are one or more wolves among the female contestants, and during the final confession, they will not be able to reciprocate their feelings.

Story: 5 guys and 5 girls have a studio to themselves for the showcase that is going to happen when they finish taking 5 photographs. Each photo comes with a girl as a leader, and they can choose the location and who they want to bring along with them for the photo taking. The photo has to be a famous romantic place in Japan. It goes midterm confession, mid elimination of who they think the wolf is, last photography task, final confession. There is the SUN line which is a group chat where they can ask someone out on a date, but allow other competitors to join in on the date. And the MOON line which notifies everyone that someone will ask someone on a date, but the recipient isn't shown to others and no one else is allowed to follow. Each participant may only use the SUN and MOON line once.

Cast: Everyone on this show was incredibly mature and kind. They articulated their feelings really well and everyone poured out their heart trying to win the one that they were interested in. The couples dyamics were really different and everyone was extremely considerate of each others feelings. They communicated well across all fronts including being upfront about who they like and staying devoted to that person regardless. This cast's personality and dynamics were 10/10. Everyone came from very different backgrounds and occupations but they embraced their diversity and were extremely open minded. As a dating show, its bound that some choices will overlap. But when choices overlapped, it was made clear that the person only had eyes for the other participant. Everyone is loyal and a sap and the last episode made me cry due to the wolve's confession.

Music: Japanese shows tend to overplay the same two songs. in this case it is BTS fake love jp ver and film out. They would constantly play the lalala part when good things happened and fake love when bad things happened.

Rewatch value: I believe if you rewatch you'll understand their actions a lot better and how they felt, like small details you missed. But considering how amazing and natural the cast was, I wouldn't be surprised if this turned into a comfort show despite the sad ending for some.

I highly recommend this show for you to watch. It will make your heart go doki doki and it even might make you cry. But it will certainly bring you on an emotional journey like no other. The premise might throw you off but I thought it was quite creative and the participants could enter and leave whenever they wanted to if they had a job so they were granted a lot of freedom.

Isn't she?

Logo de cara já acertei uma das lobas, algo na Julie me deu essa primeira impressão. Mas errei a outra, não sei porque fiquei até o último episódio cogitando que seria a Gabby.
Dos homens, meu preferido sem concorrência era o Robin, gostei da atitude dele desde o começo por ser mais velho e ter experiência de vida, a maturidade dele e também a dificuldade em confiar e se entregar de cara me fez torcer o tempo todo pra que ele fosse feliz.
Me doeu tanto a cena do Robin e da Julie no piano, o que eles sentiam um pelo outro era verdadeiro mas não podia acontecer...
