No, Is She the Wolf? is not a scripted dating show on Netflix. Even though the show's cast comprises celebrities and famous personalities, they sincerely hope to find someone to love.

Not to mention, there isn't too much drama in the series. When two individuals show interest in the same person, the contestants deal with it maturely.

While Is She the Wolf? is based on the Japanese show Who is the Wolf?, some things make them both different from one another.

The main difference between the two shows is that the Netflix show only features female wolves. Who is the Wolf, on the other hand, has wolves of both genders.

It's also worth noting that in the Netflix series, the identity of the wolves is only revealed during the season finale.

Another major difference between the two shows is that Is She the Wolf? has older contestants.

The wolf in the show tends to struggle to keep her secret, especially when she starts developing feelings for someone. Unlike other "reality" shows, they do not resort to putting up an evil facade.

It was revealed that there were actually two wolves in this season: 27-year-old singer/songwriter Julie and 25-year-old actress Sakurako.

When the show started, the two were serious about taking their role as a wolf seriously. So when they started developing feelings for others, the task became difficult for them.

There's also the challenge of keeping the charade up without telling anyone else. This became a struggle for Julie, so she expressed her feelings in a song she wrote for Robin.

Of course, in the end, both ladies ended up hurting the guys who fell in love with them. In the process, they also hurt themselves.

Hopefully, they can get past the hurt stage and reconnect in real life since their connections seemed real. Or they were just plainly good at playing the wolf.
