Books on Japanese culture, some bilingual.

While the Corona-Warn-App on Android is open source and free, it uses the Exposure API, which is provided by the Google Mobile Service (GSM). Hence, the Corona-Warn-App cannot be used on a Google-free android, e.g. LineageOS without Google Services. CoraLibre tries to reimplement the Exposure API and create a libre version of the Corona-Warn-App. There’s been significant progress reimplementing base functionality of the Exposure API using unit testing. The Corona-Warn-App hasn’t been adapted yet. It looks like, this will take some more time.
Radio feature about the Bakunin Hütte refuge founded by anarcho-syndicalists in southern Thuringia in the 1920s. The refuge became famous, when Erich Mühsam paid a visit. Nowadays, there are two clubs keeping the heritage alive.

The title says what it is. Apparently this series of books is a must-have.
Japanese–English. Like Wadoku, but in English, I guess.
An online Japanese–Japanese dictionary with simple explanations (fit for children and language learners).
A Japanese dictionary for (Japanese) children.
The Japanese–German dictionary. I used to use it with gjiten back in the day, but nowadays you can just use the website and it will even do deinflection for you (if you ask it to).
Did you know that you used to be able to count to 99,999 with Japanese numbers in Classical Japanese? (Nowadays they don’t really work past 10 and you have to use Chinese numbers instead.) This page lists them all. Well, the ones you need to construct all of them, that is.
A Firefox extension that gives you furigana and translations for kanji and Japanese words on websites as you hover over them.

Highly recommended.

Annotated and translated original scripts of video games, which you can use to follow along while playing the native version of a game. Mostly old classics such as the first three Zelda games. Cool!

A classic. In stark contrast to IMABI, Tae Kim simplifies a lot of things. Learning by practice rather than theory, if you will.
Elaborate explanations of concepts of the Japanese language. Also includes a chapter on Classical Japanese.
Recommended.
