There are, but like with anywhere, they can vary depending on location and dialect/accent. The best thing to do b is watch Japanese TV and movies - you’ll end up with a Tokyo intonation and accent, but it will be consistent, which is the important thing.
I'm actually learning Japanese because anime is the second type of content I consume the most, the first are American movies/series.
I've tried listening to Vindland but I'm too rookie to piece conversations together. Although I'm like the DiCaprio pointing at the screen meme whenever I hear something I know, which happens like once every 3 minutes.
Is there any anime/TV show you recommend that will teach me the most standard Japanese? Hopefully a mature anime like Shingeki, Death Note or Vindland. I'll save it for when I at least finish the Duolingo course.
Anime for teenagers and adults generally uses more complex language. At least in my experience, this makes it very hard to get started. Kids shows, on the other hand, often use very simple forms, which makes it easier to get a grip on things. I try to see them as exercises, so I can get to the better shows that I want to be watching. Hopefully, someone else can prove me wrong. I, too, could use some recommendations that are not just kids' anime.
