This is why I try to watch the anime before I read the manga. Anime based on manga usually (not always) is a distillation of what happened in the manga. So the manga has more to it.

If you read the manga first, then not much in the anime is going to be new for you. If you watch the anime first, there will still be parts of the manga that are new to you, since they weren't covered in the anime. (there will be exceptions, of course)

Which is part of why people revealing stuff from the manga to people watching the anime drives me up the frickin' wall. (The other part is, as I've stated, that I'm a dick.)

I can see how the delivery of stuff like Hina's congratulations turning into a funerary scene could be completely lost to someone who already got it from the manga.

So where in the manga does the anime leave off? I don't wanna wait for season 2, I wanna get in on the Hina train while it's still running.

Read it all. Like 50% of the chapters didnt get adapted in the run up to the timeskip. Youve got plenty to read. Most of the stuff skipped was Yakuza stories but some really good non-Yakuza stuff got left behind too like Hitomis English Lesson and Anzu going to school with Hina

The anime jumped all over the place, for instance it adapted chapter 38 in episode 8, chapter 36 in episode 9, and chapter 32 in episode 11. The last chapter that the anime adapted was chapter 47 where Mao and the Rocksion dude meet, but if you started there in the manga you would be missing a whole lot of hilarious chapters that the anime skipped. In other words:
