Hard to call it greatest isekai.

Ascendence Of Bookworm is the only isekai that has enter hall of fame in Kono Light Novel Ga Sugoi.
Slime isekai has the highest LN sales with 30 million, Mushoku Tensei has 11 million if I recall correctly.

Mushoku Tensei lacks consistency. It is rather weak from Volume 18 onwards. I find Volume 13 and Volume 18 boring.

I will read Volume 22 before deciding if I should drop it.

The next big isekai are Dahlia In Bloom and Modern Villainous. I have not read them yet. Well, the number of isekai has reduced over the past few years.

Sales means nothing for the most part when it comes to quality, so I'm not watching Slime's (Albeit it being another great isekai too) sales but as for everything else, I respect your opinion on the matter

Just completed Volume 22. It does get better again with princess Rudeus and champion Eris. XD
For me, Volume 13, 18, 20, 21 are the weakest volumes, the best volumes are volume 12, 15, 17.

I agreed that sales does not equal quality, sales equal to popularity which does not equal to quality. Most of the highest selling LNs are wish-fulfillment.
Current LN sales numbers:
1) Index: 31m
2) Slime Isekai: 30m (expected to surpass Index at the end of this year)
3) SAO: 30m
4) Mahouka: 22m
5) Apothecary Diaries: 21m (expected to surpass Makouka at the end of this year)
I cannot comment on Slime Isekai because I got bored reading it.
Fun Fact: When Apothecary Diaries anime is announced, LN community went crazy, the LN Discord server I am in become flooded with messages for the whole day.

In the LN side of things, isekai era is over. Romcoms make up of 60-70 percent of new LNs.
