 - Matches your existing folder names against TMDb and renames them to `Movie Name (Year)` / `Show Name (Year)` format
 - Renames video files to match, and organizes TV episodes into `S01`, `S02`, etc. season folders
-- Detects loose movie files sitting directly in the share root (no folder of their own) and organizes them into a proper movie folder
+- Detects loose movie or TV episode files sitting directly in the share root (no folder of their own) and organizes them into a proper movie or show folder
 - Detects a duplicate show folder for a show you already have (e.g. a separately-downloaded "Show S02" folder) and merges its episodes into the existing show folder instead of creating a second one
 - Checks your organized TV shows against TMDb's episode list and reports any already-aired episodes you're missing (`-e`), without changing anything
+- Understands anime-style absolute episode numbering (episodes numbered 1, 2, 3... straight through instead of per-season) when TMDb has that show's episode order data, converting them to the correct season/episode automatically
 - Finds subtitle files, figures out which one matches your primary language (by filename, and by reading the file's content/metadata if the filename doesn't say), and renames it to match the video. Defaults to English, but follows whatever language you've set for TMDb results (see [Non-English users](#non-english-users)).
 - Optionally cleans up junk files/folders (samples, `.nfo`, `.txt`, screenshots, unwanted-language subtitles) into a local trash folder. Nothing is deleted permanently, and every cleanup can be reversed.
 - Fully customizable naming convention (`names.yaml`): change `S01` to `Season 01`, use dots instead of spaces, uppercase everything, rename the "Subs" folder to something else, etc.
