Description
Describe your suggested feature
Animes only have one page on anilist/MAL, so only the original subbed versions sync to your list while dubbed dont even have the option to sync. (Unless its a provider that has both sub and dub on the same page)
So it would be great if its possible for you to automatically link the dubbed versions to the same page as the subbed versions, but if that's not possible you might be able to use the same workaround used in shiro and kuro
They used an option that showed the original ID for that anime and the ability to type your own ID. Making it really easy to open that menu on the subbed version, check its ID, and then type it in for the dubbed version to sync them both to the same page.
This also made it possible to manually correct it if the app happened to sync to the wrong series/season.
You accessed it by clicking a pen icon at the bottom, so it could easily be implemented the same way with a pen at the top, next to the cast icon on animes

Research direction
Start at the anime detail page and trace the existing AniList/MAL synchronization flow. Review how dubbed and subbed entries are identified, then define a manual ID-edit control near the cast icon or another way to link both versions; done means dubbed entries can sync to the selected series and incorrect matches can be corrected.
