I decided to read the Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid manga because I was curious to compare it to the two seasons of the anime—which I liked a lot despite being uncomfortable with the way Lucoa sexually harasses an elementary school student—and I was a bit surprised to find that, unlike the other anime where I've read the manga or light novel source material, that the events are fairly scrambled. Things tend to happen in fairly different orders in the anime and the manga, and some events in the anime seem to have been created for the anime, while some bits of the manga are left out of or changed in the anime. Honestly, I think I prefer the anime, but it's interesting to see the source material, too. Hopefully the movie that came out in theatres this year will come out for home viewing, too, soon.
The second season of the anime seems to cover material through about two-thirds of this volume, so reading the whole volume means I'm now a bit ahead of the anime. (Although I'm not sure that there will ever be a third season of the anime, and the material in the movie seems to be from further ahead in the manga, assuming it is from the manga.)
