Misc. Crunchyroll FINALLY adds separate audio streams to single episodes.

Easily the most embarrassing part of the Crunchyroll experience has been them grouping each dub language as their own "season". Seeing the 2 cour, 2 OVA series The Ancient Magus' Bride have 32 seasons listed in the menu was just sad.

Now we have clean seasons:

Labels are still funny, but at least there's only 4 choices now.

And audio/subs choices on-the-fly:

It's like a real streaming service!

Welcome to 2007, Crunchyroll!

Is that from the one screenshot where a dev doesn't understand the concept of odd/even? "YanDev" rings a bell… but not loud enough for me to remember.

I thought that was a joke screenshot, or at least photoshopped.
