I have to say that nowadays there are 11 series in Russian, not 6, So the languages' ranking goes this way: English: 128 series (9 exclusive ones), Spanish: 68 (2 exclusive ones*), Russian: 11 (no exclusive series from this), Thai: 6, Bahasa (Indonesia): 5, Portuguese (Brazilian): 4

* Kill me and My Hero Academia: Vigilantes.

Also, the current localization of the web to other languages (Spanish) is not perfect, which I assume is done via automatic translation,

And yes, human translation is another cost. Maybe Shueisha will finally understand that foreign publishers do work a lot, too.
