Crank it over by hand and line up all 3 marks again. If one of the cams is off, then loosen the tensioner and reposition the cam to the proper mark after pulling off the belt.

Getting proper belt tension between the cams is HARD, but necessary. It doesn't matter if you move the cam a little bit left or right. The valve springs will not allow you to rotate the cam more than 90 degrees anyway, without a lot of pressure.

Removing the 5 spark plugs lets you rotate the engine easily.
