i havent seen this before but i think its hard to go wrong with immersion + anki, that seems to be the silver bullet for learning japanese. The key is to just stay consistent with it, do your anki cards every day, watch anime and read something. I recommend you start (unless youre already doing this) with the core 2k deck and do immersion on the side when you have time.
For N4 level immersion i recommend "NHK News Web Easy", its an official NHK site that summarises longer articles into simpler Japanese, its made for foreigners who are learning the language and i think little kids and stuff. This site was instrumental for me when i did jlpt n3. Also make sure you install Yomichan and set up anki integration so you can easily add words to your deck when reading etc. In Anki make sure you change the number of new cards per day so you are learning most efficiently without burning out / spending too much time on it. Anki is where the magic happens imo so you have to get comfortable with it etc
To learn kanji just learn words instead. If theres a time where you want to make sure you understand the meaning of a kanji just add a couple of words that include it to your anki deck (to do this you can go on jisho.org and type *言* for example to get all the words w/ that kanji). (There are numerous theories on how you should learn kanji like "remembering the kanji" or wanikani but they are jewish psyops to keep foreigners out of japan imo. The idea of learning entire stories and mnemonics just to remember a kanji is so insane)
Remember to have fun and wagmi etc
