Resources for learning Japanese
Tae Kim’s Grammar Guide
This guide is awesome for beginners and gives really good explanations and examples! Always worth a visit:
http://www.guidetojapanese.org/learn/grammar
Japanese Pod101
This learning website is awesome for beginners, intermediates and also advanced learners! It has great videos and audio files. You can watch some for free but pdfs and some other material is for subscribers only!
https://www.japanesepod101.com/
Learning Hiragana
I never used any apps or pages for learning the japanese writing system, but this page might help people, who cannot visit any classes!
https://www.tofugu.com/japanese/learn-hiragana/
TextFugu
Another new page, i never tried out myself but heard a lot good stuff about it.
 Although I have the impression, it’s more like reading a novel :D.
http://www.textfugu.com/
There will be a new page of TextFugu someday, but it is still in testing phase
https://etoeto.com/
Kanji
Also Kanji I learned without any programs or apps but recently many people seem to be using WaniKani, so have a look:
https://www.wanikani.com/
Kanji Stroke order
Since there are many people who are confused in how to write Kanji and whether there are specific rules to write them, it is always nice to have an online resource helping out:
https://www.tofugu.com/japanese/kanji-stroke-order/
ReadTheKanji
Another resource I got from tofugu but never tried out myself is this page. It might help you remembering all the Kanji @.@
https://www.readthekanji.com/
MaggieSensei
A nice feature for learning on the go. So if you want to have like a daily little extra lesson, these articles and memes on this page are the right thing!

Apps I am using
There a a few Apps I am using or had been using for some time so I want to share them with you, although you might already know them:
HiNative
This App is nice if you have specific questions, like “How to use the word 枯渇” or “What is the difference between 会う and 合う?” and so on. I really love the App and it can be used for every level!
https://hinative.com/
HelloTalk
This App has also great potential, although they should do some reworks on it soon. It works like a facebook-wall. You post texts or photos and native speakers will correct your japanese in it. Perfect for short texts and messages!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hellotalk&hl=de
Pibo
A great App for starting to read japanese texts. I didn’t try it out yet but it is on my to Do list!
http://pibo.jp/
EasyNews
For a little advanced learners, who also want to read the newspaper but still have to struggle with the kanji, this page might be a perfect match. It’s an official NHK News page but a lot easier and usually made for kids and teens in Japan. Who thinks that this is too easy should just move forward to the normal NHK page!

Dictionaries
Well for dicitionaries there are a ton of websites and apps and you should just go and try out some to see for yourself, for I am using only my electronic dictionary. I heard of Makimono, Akebi and (for german learners) wadoku but they all have their ups and downs.
Other learning Apps
For remembering the Kanji or vocabulary, many people use Apps with flashcards, like Anki or Memrise. Go try them out and find your favourite!
Listening in Japanese
The best thing to train your listening comprehension might be to talk to Japanese or watch Japanese shows or dramas. Of course do many people learn via Manga and Anime and it is great to have a motivation but I would recommend, to first learn like “common” japanese instead of starting out with the typical “anime-japanese” because some people might think that your way of talking is weird or unnatural. There are also a few great podcasts like those from JapanesePod101 or some stuff available on iTunes. If you still want to go for the animes first then check this page before: https://www.tofugu.com/japanese/learn-japanese-from-anime/
There are also sometimes old shows, news, dramas or adverts to be found on youtube. (e.g. Nihonjin no shiranai nihongo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIulw6mhaJQ)
Also some kid shows, like Doraemon, where easy but mostly natuiral japanese is used, can be found there. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2_JHrxMiHw)
There is also an App from NHK with many funny shows mainly for students. (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.or.nhk.school&hl=de)
Also the videos from  Hirogaru are great, because they even have subtitles in Japanese! (https://hirogaru-nihongo.jp)
If you have any other resources to share with us, I will add them later!Hope this helped a little, have a nice day!

DOMO X DC COMICS LINE OF COLLECTIBLE FIGURINES
New York’s Big Tent Entertainment has partnered with Warner Bros. Consumer Products, on behalf of DC Entertainment, to introduce a new co-branded line of collectible Domo figures.
Toymaker Funko ( https://funko.com/ ) and Warner Brothers Consumer Products ( WBCP https://www.warnerbros.com/studio/divisions/consumer-products ) have created the Domo X DC ( http://www.dccomics.com/ ) line in which the iconic Japanese meme dons the superhero uniforms of Batman, Superman, The Green Lantern, The Flash and other popular DC Comics superheroes.
Domo ( どーも くん Dōmo-kun ) is the official mascot of Japan's public broadcaster NHK. Domo is a brown, furry and oviparous monster with a large, sawtoothed mouth that is locked wide open.
