The manga has the same main plot points as the anime but with quite a few differences. Obviously the manga staff have been given the plot for the show up to a certain extent and are working based off that.

Some differences are that in Manga Chapter 2/Anime Episode 3 shelter scene Sheryl makes her speech about destiny and actually tries to open the lock but it's jammed. Than Alto and Ranka (obviously inspired by the speech) join in and open it up, there is no Grace to rescue them like in the anime. Also after Sheryl leaves Ranka gets a phonecall saying Ozma is injured while in the anime they see him pass over. No funeral/Aimo scene as Ozma accepts Alto to SMS in the hospital after he makes his destiny speech (inspired by Sheryl from the shelter).

The latest manga chapter was chapter 5 and that ended with SMS about to engage the Varja like at the very start of episode 7.
