Definitely not, It's good to learn realism because it teaches you the rules and basics, basically how to art, shadows, textures, lighting, how to draw proportionally etc. and after learning realism my art became so much better. I used to draw anime and it was terrible because I didn't understand the basics  (not saying you're bad, just putting my experience here as an example.) I'm not saying that you have to do realism forever, but learning how to sketch and how to really draw and put things into proportion really improved my art, especially my stylistic stuff.
