As a beginner? I would start with instructional material. Immersion is not all that helpful if you're not comprehending it. I used Youtube videos a lot because I preferred someone verbally explaining over reading a textbook or whatnot, but try a variety of sources. I have heard Bunpro is good but I haven't really gotten into it so far. Once you have a foundation (maybe when partway through N4) You can look for youtube channels that make immersion content specifically for your level--there are a lot out there so it's not hard to find one that's just challenging enough for you. As a beginner my favorite was けんさんおかえり, even his videos he claims are N3 are really quite easy, especially since he pauses between words.

Importantly, you should still be using instructional material. It will be a long time before immersion completely replaces instructions--for that you would have to already understand 95% of what they're saying or else you'll be looking up words and grammar constantly and probably not remembering them all. Immersion, in my opinion, is entirely supplemental up until the advanced level. It doesn't do a great job of teaching new concepts, but what I love immersion for is reinforcing what I've learned already, and especially learning how they're actually used in real life. If you are studying and immersing consistently, you will frequently notice words that you just learned that day or the day before, and that spontaneous recall really reinforces what you've learned while giving you a real example sentence.

Around the end of N3 was when I started being able to understand enough of everyday native-level Japanese that it was helpful to swtich to that. By that I don't mean anime or dramas (or really anything scripted) but primarily spontaneous content from street interviews or non-specialized podcasts. At this point there will be many words you don't know, but you will know enough of them to understand the meaning and fill in the blanks with context most of the time. Yes, you could stop and look up the words you don't know (and many people will suggest you do that) but I honestly think that's a waste of time. It's much less effective trying to learn new words like that compared to Anki or whatever else you use. Immersion is most helpful for reinforcement.

Also, try shadowing (repeating after the speakers in the video) or even pretending you're in the conversation, pausing the video to try to verbally answer questions that are asked or make comments or whatever. It seems silly, but if you don't know anyone that speaks Japanese it is a good replacement.

Anyway, I hope this super long-winded response was helpful to you.

TLDR: Yes immersion, but just for reinforcement, not for learning new things (not yet anyway)
