anime according to JLPT level (= N5 is easiest, N1 is hardest). at animelon.com you can watch anime with japanese subs connected to a pop-up dictionary; other recommendations are viki (= j-dramas+subs), japanese netflix (= japanese dub+sub).

example: you're at JLPT N3 but want to beat N2. watch Kabaneri, Parasyte, Shiki etc THEN jump a difficulty line and watch Baccano, Hunter x Hunter. to really ensure that you'll pass, jump another line to Death Note, Psycho Pass and so on.
after 60-80 episodes (with no outside study) you should be able to jump a level.
• ♫ means there's background noise or music that makes it hard to hear.

Special Notes:
Flying Witch: really useful for "everyday Japanese" in case you're going to actually live in Japan. "Pass me the frying pan" "Take the trash out" "Mind the gap between the train and the platform" etc.
Psycho Pass: almost every sentence uses N1-N2 grammar points with VERY clear context, so if you're studying advanced grammar try this series.
