Aria (and Shirayuki too) had reached the Top 32 of this year's anime Saimoe tournament.
The other famous Rie Kugimiya tsunderes (Shana, Louise, Nagi and Taiga) reached at least Top 8 in their first year. Taiga was the only one who became champion in her first year, while the others were defeated by the champion.
So if Aria reaches the Top 8 or loses to the champion this year, then Aria probably has become as popular as the other tsunderes. We'll just have to see how well Aria can go.
