The protagonists of both series are similar in personality and come to the same logical conclusion (to make a living off of Earth technology) as well as following the same path in life, what differs them is their circumstances and thus how easily they accomplish their goals: Myne only has her memories from Earth to rely on, other than that she's just a sickly peasant child kept alive by willpower alone. The nobility are cruel and aloof, and every inch of progress is hardfought. Mitsuha has the ability to teleport anywhere she pleases, able to acquire any Earth product she likes without making it herself, and most of the people she meets are kind and generous. So, in short it's like a speedrun of Ascendance of a Bookworm. Progress is made not by the inch, but by the mile, with Mitsuha having the leeway to really splurge and go wild. Saving 80,000 Gold certainly isn't as sophisticated or memorable a series, but the contrast to its sophisticated counterpart makes it a lot of fun IMO.

If you appreciate that Slime breaks the isekai norm by focusing more on politics, society, and development than on combat or slice-of-life, Ascendance of a Bookworm takes it further and is entirely focused on politics, society, development, and economics. Both series are about the protagonist's rise in influence, though while that influence is won through battle quickly and easily in slime, the protagonist of Ascendance of a Bookworm struggles immensely for every inch of progress.
