>So first I study japanese tutorials?
I find jap and kr tutorial to be more visual-y and beginner friendly so yeah, it wouldn't hurt to try those first

>Should I also try deconstruction or is it a waste of time?
yes, to get a better understanding of how the artist draw their figures. See pic related but you're deconstructing it using any from step 1 to 6
dont forget to do figure studies as well (hampton, villpu, hitokaku to name a few)

I just try to understand what the examples are trying to show. You don't need to understand japanese to get it unless it's mostly wall of texts. Pic related it's korean though but it's self explanatory you don't need to read what the texts are trying to say

I posted some tuts in the tutorial thread you guys might find some of them helpful
