By the most popular you mean Haruhi right? I personally think that the reason why it sold poorly was a combination of the fact that most American fans have already watched the anime which consists of most of the earlist volumes plot and also the fact that Americans don't get some of the humor behind Haruhi that's lost in translation.
Slice of life books are also less liked by most people in America and they prefer advanture's books more hence why Haruhi did poorly in America. I think that books like Slayer and The Legend of Legendary Heroes will sell better in America then Haruhi.
