The biggest difference so far is that Chloe in the first few episodes was a guy in the novels who isn't as attached to Lawrence as Chloe was (guess they needed to show just how bad Lawrence was with the ladies). Lawrence also wasn't as much of a wuss when he first met Horo (ie, doesn't pass out when he sees her transform/etc). Otherwise, it seems much closer to the story than I expected it to be.

I believe I remember the author even saying he wished he could go back and rewrite his novel with Chloe in it -- he agreed it add a lot of texture to the character's connection with Lawrence. The manga has been exceptional... I'm just sad it comes out so slowly.
