Right up there with tools like ani-cli and manga-cli is ytfzf. It can fuzzy-find YouTube content, fetch it, and play it in a local media player.
Scraping results can be slow, so passing --keep-cache will store the last scrape, then --scrape=from-cache can be passed to just pull back the last result set. It pops up a list of the last scrapes, sorted chronologically, but doesn’t show a description, so you have to blindly pick one.
I used ani-cli to locate and watch Chinese-language anime for a similar purpose, but it never occurred to me to look for a CLI-based YT viewer.
