To compound on what MangaDoll said, the main character is more or less Momonga/Ainz from Overlord (in terms of overpoweredness) in a more slice of life or casual environment & circumstances (such as the genderswap, less character death, more trivial villains & arcs). The MC here is arguably less broken than Ainz is though, as there are other player characters in this world and there have been advancements in the thirty years' absence. Nazarick, on the other hand, is a virtually undefeatable army. A few of the generals alone could defeat any army that the rest of the world has to offer, not to mention the legions of minions it houses. They play it out very cautiously and pursue other goals rather than decimating the world in the pursuit of control, but there's basically no force in the world of Overlord that can take on more than one general (aside from other entities from Nazarick).
Overlord has a more overpowered premise, main character, and heavily nerfed world by comparison. It also has heaps of the now memed SASUGA AINZ SAMA. However, the more serious tone it takes in the investment in the lives and stories of side characters unaffiliated with Nazarick (and their actual struggles vs Nazarick's "omg how hard do I win, really hard or harder?") is part what makes it more compelling, I think. This manga has a bit more difficulty building tension and hasn't really presented any conflicts with forces able to match the main character (though it's shown a few who can or are stronger, namely being her friends + decades experience). Maybe once she leaves the country she'll find some worthy opponents.
