Cute girls doing cute things is the objectively the best genre in general, but it's also great for learning. You get lots of dialogue, and that dialogue doesn't rely on you understanding everything that came before, because it's not very plot driven. The language is simple and usually about everyday stuff. Don't skip any OP/ED that's at least decent; bonus points for karaoke subs. Manga is similar, because it's also visual it helps with understanding. Just get one with furigana. VNs are also a good choice, because they feature both text and voice, and you progress at your own pace. However, it might be hard to find material that's easy enough for beginners to read.

Chii's Sweet Home is really simple and has short episodes, it's easy to go through one a couple of times, with and without subs for example. Mostly very clear speech around N5 level, I found it good when I was starting anyway.

Kinda on topic question so I'll ask here:
what Japanese imageboards can I browse to learn their culture and see some discussions about things I like?

I enjoyed bocchi the radio, give it a listen if you liked the anime. It's probably not the simplest for beginners but works pretty well for passive listening while doing another activity.

Let me propose an alternative. Instead of using subs with furigana, try installing the Yomitan browser extension and scanning Japanese words with it to see their furigana. Set it up with this guide: https://learnjapanese.moe/yomichan/

Really appreciate this! I have Yomitan set up, but this is still a very useful resource! It's just not convenient for me to use Yomitan with anime since I have it downloaded.

You could try uploading your anime file and subtitle file to a website like https://killergerbah.github.io/asbplayer/ to be able to scan words with Yomitan.

Don't forget about Japanese games too if you like vidya. Especially if it's a game you've already played then it's even better because you won't miss out on the story. Been playing Zelda recently, there are kanji I don't understand but it all has furigana.

Also to clarify it's mainly for dialogues (checked wind waker and the newer ones), and the older ones like ocarina don't have it. Games probably aren't fully beginner friendly and can have harder vocab than beginner VN or cute girls anime but still an option to keep in mind.

Any favorite Japanese anime reaction channels? Most of them are vtubers and I'm not experienced in them so I don't know how to pick good ones to rewatch my favorite anime with.
