A+ romance, B+ Comedy. Such a great show for anyone seeking some good 'ol romance in their anime. Sure, It's Shojo, but so is most any romance.
And, just a bit more of copy/pasted information from a few websites...
It is considered the "bible of romance" for shōjo manga due to its influence on later authors.
The Mainichi Shimbun paper interviewed music producer Shigeru Nishikawa about the ongoing anime adaptation of his late wife Kaoru Tada's unfinished shōjo manga classic, Itazura na Kiss. Nishikawa says that Tada told him in January of 1999 that "I think I'll end [the manga] this year." She slipped into a coma after a home accident in February of that year and died the following month.
However, Nishikawa added that Tada told him her plot for the manga's finale, and her concept will be the basis for the anime scripts. While Nishikawa emphasized that the manga and anime are distinct from each other, he revealed that the anime will be the first time that the concepts for Tada's planned ending will be provided to fans in any form.

I've seen this anime before up till when she went into the hosptial but forgot about it waiting for new eps.
It's a very good anime and borrows heavily from the grandmasters like Maison and Kimagure which is great!
Cracking up on ep 12 with the "english". So hilarious when they make their chars speak English in these animes.

Really love the music, especially ep 13's new ending song, dunno about the rap part but the woman singing is well done.
Great anime, although Irie's stone cold ass seems forced but the fact he's great at everything makes him likeable.

Well....the main reason why it took me so long to watch this anime is because I got sick after reading Kendra's post on this.
Anyways, this show is very excellent. The character development is OOOOMAZING! All the characters in this show come together so perfectly and you get attached with every single last one. Im all caught up on the show and the little 2-3 episode arc with Nom-chan was crazy. So crazy how time flies by in that show...I never seen a romance anime where the main chars. start out as gakis (brats in japanese) and then become full fledge adults with careers WHILE the show is still going on.
