Nobuta wo Produce Finale

Finally, I've been able to finish Nobuta wo Produce. It's kinda unexpected how the series ended up. At first I thought there will be a love triangle between the three best friends, Shuji, Akira and Nobuta. But when I watched the last episode, I've found out that the story merely focuses on true friendship and overcoming obstacles in life. I never thought that the story would end up like that. The ending goes like this, Shuji's dad had to move in to another city because of his work. That makes Shuji and his family to move to that place together. He told Akira and Nobuta that he will transfer to another school in the next semester. And of course, the three friends had thier own sad moments because of this incident. After some time, Shuji's classmates found out that he'll transfer in the next semester. On Shuji's departure, Akira, Nobuta and all of their classmates gave Shuji a heart warming goodbyes. The next scene was that Shuji is introduced to his new classmates but suddenly he saw something unusual. He saw Akira standing at the back of the room. Could it be an illusion? That's what I thought at first. But actually, it's really Akira. Shuji asked his new classmate how did Akira came to his new school. the classmate said that he was on a helicopter a day before Shuji's arrival. When Shuji asked Akira why he followed him, Akira said it was said by Nobuta. Nobuta really wanted to live on her own without the help of Akira and Shuji. She really appriciate everything that Shuji and Akira had done. But life must go on. She must live life to the fullest without the help of her best friends. On the next scene. We will see Nobuta together with Mariko (Shuji's ex-girlfriend). Nobuta and Mariko became best of friends. Nobuta will then go to the school's rooftop where she, Shuji and Akira meet. Nobuta will smile brightly and thank her friends for making her what she is now. The last scene will be Shuji and Akira playing on the beach without Nobuta. It's kinda gay though :P I really thought that Akira and Nobuta will become lovers in the end but I'm shocked that the series really focuses in the three characters' everlasting friendship. I hope there will be a part 2 of this series.
