Satori Reader. This website let you sort their stories by difficult, all wrote and recorded by native speakers, also translation is available in a click of the mouse. They allow you to see 2 chapters of each story for free. I will try use spaced repetition with those, until I can understand at least 90% just by listening. Any similar tools available?

I recommend start by Human Japanese, aren’t really stories, but a couple of sentences instead, is the easier option to start.
Been using this for around 6months now. One of the best resources I’ve found. Love it.
I use it for shadowing practice. I go through the chapters very slowly. Each new chapter I’ll read a few times, add any unknown words to my study list, and then play the audio while reading along at the same time. I’ll gradually increase the speed as I get more comfortable. Finally, I play the audio but turn off the screen and follow along just by listening. Only when I can get through the whole chapter without any trouble will I move on to the next chapter. My speaking and listening has improved dramatically since I’ve started using it
