A lot of people already gave a great advice so i’m going to help you with this one:

For reading I recommend [graded readers level 0-1](https://community.wanikani.com/t/graded-readers-and-parallel-texts-book-club/35099) and for listening [nihongo con teppei for beginner](https://open.spotify.com/show/4W4jYoKRmjlURKO1fIfcOK?si=iyi6OMWETGCZVmCAcaQw6A&dl_branch=1)

Lastly, from my personal opinion, deliberate learning (wanikani, anki, grammar, etc.) should not take most of your learning time, rather maximize on immersion, that’s where the language really getting absorbed into your brain. Deliberate learning only function as a foundation so you don’t get lost when doing immersion, not the way to acquire the language.
