National and international News:
http://www.faz.net/Overall information regarding mediaMost things I'll try to cover won't be 3D or real life stuff like dramas, movies, etc. since this doens't interrest me and I can't give information regarding something I don't know about.
But, well, if you're interrested in movies, go ahead and see if there's a german dub for it. Most of the time there will be one and it'll be good/decent. German dubs are pretty amazing.
Some well-known Anime/Cartoon (there are plenty more)
Alfred J. Kwak
Heidi
Ducktales
Darkwing Duck
Pinocchio
Almost all of the Ghibli movies
Puschel
Pipi Langstrumpf
Nils Holgerson
Biene Maja
As you can tell, most of them aren't German. It's either a dub or a co-production with another country (i.e. Heidi)
In case you're able to watch KIKA, do it. When I was still a little kid they broadcasted many anime for kids, I don't know how the things are nowadays, I'd have to give it a look.
If you're interrested in recent anime, forget it. That's all. Avoid doujinshi if you don't want to read really stupid and akward stuff.
Manga, however, is pretty ok. Yotsubato, for example, is pretty well translated and really cute, you really can't do anything wrong with reading german Yotsuba. Just as for anime: older, well known manga (Azumanga, Yotsuba, etc.) are better than recent ones. The german translations are also very late, so reading/watching german magna/anime is really troublesome.
Are you interrested in Let's Plays? Forget it. The let's play scene is really shit nowadays.
But if you're still interrested go and watch some ``old" videos (2009 - 2011 or early 2012) by PhunkRoyal, TheEmero, Aligator1024 and people connected to them. Overall, it's really shit.
In case you want to play the games yourself, buy them from Austria. Why from Austria? Germany's consorship laws or whatever are pretty fucked to the shit. They censor many things such as dead people dissapearing instead of lying around on the ground. But be carefull of regional lockout or whatever it's called (Europe: PAL)
Television overall is very shitty. But there are some things to look out for:
NEVER watch RTL except you want to see the most pitful people in Germany
NEVER watch RTL2 (they used to broadcast relatively new anime like Wan Piss, Nuruto but also good stuff like Digimon disregarding that, they are just as shit as RTL
TELE5 is pretty good, it sometimes has DB and DBZ or martial art movies and western movies.
Some german imageboards are
krautchan.net, which is pretty shit and
ernstchan.com, which I never used but I presume is's also shit.
There was that one textboard which is dead now, it was called
3-ch.net, IIRC. You can check it out on the internet archive.
I hope this was everything.
Viel Glück beim Deutschlernen!
