Is it weird that in the scene where Bella's box of "Toys" gets knocked over my only thought was " Why are there packing peanuts?"
Just so MC has something to snack on while she demonstrates proper toy use for us. Most packing peanuts are corn starch by the way, they just don't taste good. No, don't ask how I know.

Bella's only popular cause she's the only one who's had some MC action! I reckon next chapter or two will see Bella slip down. Mila and Vic next then it's Nia and Ayua (and maybe Sasha if she's sparring with Ayua when the MC arrives...)
I dont think what you say have much base.

Bella barely showed up last episode and not much changed in terms of fandom.

It may be true for a small percentage, but saying "Bella's only popular" because of that is absurd.

It is essentially impossible for all those you mentioned to take Bella's position.

Real candidates are Sasha and Nami. I personally also really like the muslin girl, can't remember her name now.

But Bella's popularity is way moe than just screen time

the reason why Bella is popular it's because Bella is Bella end of story

Yeah probably, hell I like her due to the fact that she and the MC are so similar in many ways. It's funny watching the game play out with her trying to figure him out. Though, the point failed to make is, I do wonder how many like her because she is the first LI interaction rather than because of her personality.

There are surely some.

But I would expect most people that like her simply because of screen time would go Nami's direction more than Bella.

Bella's personality is quite strong. She is way more to generate extreme like (love in those of us touched by the force) or extreme dislike.

Nami, on the other hand, is more an universally likeable character. You can find people disliking Bella (heretics whose dayd are counted), but pretty much everyone likes Nami.

So, if it is just because of screen time, my guess is they would prefer Nami. Hey, even in Bella's path Nami crying out of painful jealousy is quite a powerful scene for her. I pity her, but changes nothing to me. Bella is the only one, "even if this world has to end" (Quoting Solas)

Yes that's me... and No I don't...

I think Bella atm. oc. has an edge because of screentime. And there are many more LI who will give Bella a run for her money in the future...
Ya, right now, Bella is really the only main LI who has actually received significant on-screen time that was dedicated to one on one with the MC in potentially romantic elements. Nami would probably be in 2nd place in that regard.

Everyone else has basically just had limited interaction with the MC, or interaction that was based on non-romantic means (school, etc).

Mila & Vic are coming up.

Amber, Sonya, Sasha are down the road still. Will be interesting to see how things change for people once those other LIs get some development.

Suddenly I noticed that MC has to kiss Bella in order for Nami to openly show her feelings. And MC in the lake scene asks her directly if she's in love with him, only if he kissed Bella. The way to Nami's heart lies through Bella. I'm not seeing things, am I?

No, that's correct. However, I doubt that'll be the only path to take to get Nami to open up and that if he gets close to another LI, Nami will open up then.

Everything is logical, Bella made her move, Nami understands that she also has to make her move...
There is a struggle for MC... for me :)

I wager that's mostly because she and the MC get to share some actual character development, and so far she's really the only girl he's had intimate interaction with.

She's got nice hair and all, and eventually I even get to like her, but she's far from my top choice.

Is this the only VN where 1 LI absolutely dominates the fandom/community?
Everything here is Bella, Bella, Bella and Bella.
Well, it's like that for now since she was the first character to get a spotlight chapter. Once the other LIs get a dedicated chapter, it will surely become much more diverse. Zara is getting a bigger following because of the recent update.

Just wait until Sasha gets a dedicated chapter; from what I've seen, she already has some hardcore fans yet little is known about her. She has the potential to overthrow this whole forum.
