Well I know that if you want to do Art professionally in Tokyo, which I'd like to do someday, do need to go through the proper schooling first, and have a Bachelor's Degree. If you don't then they won't even hire you.

A lot of Art schools can be taken in the evening with night classes. They even show you how to draw in their manga style. It would be so cool. (Also a lot of websites show you were professional mangakas went to school.) That can be helpful information to follow.
