Hanayamata, a masterpiece of an anime in my opinion. So how does the manga stack up?
Story: The first 34 chapters (and 5 volumes) is where the anime adapts to. Unfortunately, the part that I loved most in the last 2 episodes is much shorter in the manga.
After this, we do get new characters and their backstories, although I don't feel the same sense of magic it had. 8/10
Art - The art is still pretty good, though depicting yosakoi is hard in manga format. 8/10
Characters - The characters are where it shines, with each character having their own weaknesses and issues that are resolved throughout
...
the course of the manga. 9/10
Enjoyment - It was a good read, and I did look forward to new chapters every Sunday. 8/10
Overall - If you're a fan of CGDCT I'd recommend this manga. 8/10
