Finished the final Episode.
Here are my thoughts.

I loved the series, it was just great. Probably my favorite Drama. However, things I did not like were:
The fact Shuji & Mariko did have neutral feelings & get together.
& That Nobuta never got to know how Akira really felt about her & that they did not get together.
The end was happy & it was okay I suppose. Atleast Nobuta had Mariko there, & Shuji had Akira, but I think I would have liked it better if Mariko & Shuji ended up at the same place & Akira & Nobuta stayed where they were.
Characters:
Shuji - He was a pretty cool person throughout the series. He was a good main role too. His character lied often to hide the truth. He seemed popular but was actually at the same time alone. I like how his character developed from the time he met nobuta, & how he took in all of the lessons he learned from nobuta, the vice principal, his dad, etc. He learned what friendship, love, & life really was in a sense.
Akira - Best character in show. He put his two friends before himself, he was good for comedy, & he was a good person. He even defended people that were mean to his friends (Bando for example when her bf hit her). He was also a true friend to both Shuji & Nobuta.
Nobuta - I like how her character developed as well. At first I thought she was going to just be a weird anti-social strange chick. But I was wrong. She was just afraid to open up to people until she met Akira & Shuji. She's another good example of a true friend, she would do anything for them, & even the one that lied to her (Aoi). Loved her character.
Mariko - Great character. Extremely nice & very beautiful in looks & actions. She appeared quite frequently in the show, but it would have been nice for them to have used her a little more.
Vice Principal (forget what her name was if they said it- She was a good character as well. She taught the main characters good lessons about life & her words helped them out when they were down or didn't know what to do. She also added good comedy.
Overall good series.
