She's basically the most popular character in this series, so I would appreciate if you guys could provide some context why is that the case.

Well, it's rather simple when you think about it,
Some people like the kind of personality she has.

as people said above, people do be liking a yangire with gothic lolita outfit.

Also because she has more association towards the plot as time related powers are too convenient. Many people do not associate any sort of "personal life" with the other spirits and look at them like Shido's dolls, unfortunately. The anime is partly faulty for this. And obviously, intellectual quality of the people watching it.

Another reason is multiple sides of her through clones. There's a chuuni Kurumi, tsundere Kurumi, etc. Pick your like.

My favorite is eye patch Kurumi, who was supposed to be remnant of her younger chuuni self, but is a mature and sweet girl.

Finally, intervention of the author. Kurumi's design was the first he had in mind. Maybe because of his own favoritism or assessment of the public, there are spinoffs associated with just Kurumi.

With her association with promotion and sales, Kurumi kinda became the face of the series...

The gothic beauty is both incredibly feminine (which is rare to come across in 2025) and gracefully provocative, making her the most complex and intriguing character in the show.

Generally, her design stands out as memorable with color scheme, and her being one of the most iconic girls with 2 eye colors. She has decent sized tits too, and has solid routes in the VNs. She is sexually suggestive and mysterious which adds to her appeal.
