Anon, you have to consider the fact that YouTube consistently takes down videos for "copyright infringement." If a certain video is taken down and uploaded multiple times, it's highly unlikely that it will reach 10,000 views (even if Hetalia is becoming more popular.) Also, one person can view a video many times; the accuracy of the view count is questionable, especially when deciding popularity.
