EXCELLENT. The anime is actually a bit better at setting up the series than the manga is--the manga starts after she's already caught her first card, then gives a somewhat hurried backstory that made me wonder if I'd accidentally missed the first volume somewhere, so it might be confusing to people who don't already know the backstory. Whereas the anime starts from the proper beginning. After that they are pretty much the same, though, at least for the first four volumes.
