I thought the first couple of chapters were the weakest.

The whole sequence of:
-Getting exiled from her family
-Accidentally stumbling into extreme arcane power
-Heading to a nearby town to become an adventure and get a guild card

I must’ve ALREADY read 50+ times. And sure some of that is on me for having terrible taste, but it makes it impossible to care about the setup.

But some of the later stuff like accidentally taking over an evil cult caught me off guard.

I don't disagree there; I've seen this exact same setup so many times that they all kind of blur together. And I think the author knows that too, since they don't seem to be taking it all that seriously either. Lord knows we've already seen plenty of "serious" stories that feature people whose power is internet shopping/access, and one (really good) story about having access to your world's strategy guide.

However since it largely seemed to be a joke manga I didn't mind just going along for the ride with the cliches.

Highly recommend that series for the art alone. The author/artist (Mori Kaoru) also has a few other mangas focusing on maids, if that's you jam. Similar high quality art.

The manga that sparked the original comment was Otoyomegatari = A Bride's Story, but yes.

Hmm. This manga is interesting, as a sort of a combo of Chainsaw Man and Berserk sensibilities. Although it kinda jumps the shark by doing a Berserk sacrifice type scene in the first chapter. You gotta build to that....

The art and character designs so far are very Berserk, but the story and writing is about a total opposite of Berserk. The sacrifice also serves the exact opposite purpose as the one in Berserk.

It's been done. In the original ADV translation of the Azumanga Daioh manga, they had Osaka say "Fugeddaboudit" and talk about meatball subs.

In the Hokkaido Girls anime the dub had them all talking in Minnesota accent which kinda worked .
