Japan isn't better with manga, there are 1,000 of Manga isekais that are just slight variations of the same story.
They still have something to stand out, even if it is little. The comic book industry is just recycling the same characters and then creating "new" ones which are just a change in gender or race, they have been doing this for decades.
Blender is perfect for modeling, and it has great sculpting tools too and it is very optimized now, so it's good for high poly and low poly. If you want to make that PS1/N64 graphics then it's perfectly fine to model on Blender and texture on Substance Painter (Blender is terrible for texturing).
It depends if you want to do it as a hobby or a profession. (I don't recommend going pro, the market is saturated and DEI up the ass)
If you want to do it as a hobby I recommend Blender (start with the Blender Guru's donut tutorial), Blender is great and keeps getting better and MORE optimized while other softwares keep getting bloated, if you want to texture for game characters you must also learn Substance Painter, but it is a marvelous and intuitive software and 100% worth it. Buy it on Steam, it is a one-time purchase.
If you want to get into the industry, it's probably better to invest on what they are used to, ZBrush, Maya...
If you want to model realistic characters, beautiful characters, etc. then you MUST learn from eastern Asia artists, they are the top of their game, Wingfox is a terrible platform but it has great artists. If you are on a budget, I recommend FlyCat on youtube, the guy is a legend.
Honestly the same woman without makeup and older. She doesn't appear to have done anything to her face. Just changed her look.
I invested years of my life into 3D modeling and texturing, you have no idea how much even the smallest detail can impact the looks of your model and make a girl look masculine, older, etc.
The gaming industry (and entertainment in general) is filled with hacks who have no talent and put no effort into their craft. They get some face scan so the hardest part (modeling the face) is already done, and they STILL manage to fuck it up every time (sometimes on purpose) and end up with a tranny looking abomination, because they don't know shit about texturing.
The more interesting stat is that centrists apparently fuck.
No, they are a tiny minority because very few people today identify as centrist, most have taken a side. Which is the same reason whites are majority, it's not because whites are more likely to be incel, its just that the research was done in white majority countries.
38.85% of the incel participants were right-leaning, 44.70% were left-leaning, and 17.47% were centrist.
I find it funny how the left is the biggest political group among incels, yet they are the ones that use the word as an insult the most. Really makes you think.
And they say jews have high IQ....
