I would suggest listening to many natives talk and repeating what is said in Japanese out loud, but try not to use amine because they don't speak 'normally'

I would highly recommend the app ja sensei. It's awesome for learning grammar, kanji, particles, and it also helps with pronunciation. It's an all around good language learning app:)

I agree with Davina. Anime is not good for learning Japanese. In my opinion, any バラエティ番組 either for that matter. Because anime has too many slangy words and phrases that are not respectable and that won't be around 5 years later anyway. And バラエティ番組s are full of uneducated people. Programs from NHK are good for listening to correct Japanese. If from 民放 programmes, news anchors and quiz programme hosts speak in correct Japanese.
