Could a script be developed to change names as well in source mode? Find and replace applied to specific names or something, worth a thought!

Yes since leaving a redirect requires ticking and was certain I could save a bunch of needless redirects that wouldn't be used anyway (since adding them in source mode as well) by leaving it, and yet worked differently on Episode 2 images.

You'd add the first snippet in console, then paste the list of images names you'll be replacing into the resulting textbox. Once you've done that, add the second snippet in console. Then you'll have the number of images you'll be replacing so that you can calculate the number you need for the other snippet that creates the list of new image names. If it doesn't make sense though, you don't need to use it. Thanks, tried that on the regular Episode 3 image gallery article page (not in edit or massrename or anything) and got a number of 160!

Is that everything for using MassRename? It's ridiculously handy on the Banana Fish Wiki especially what with quite a few random code titles, so thank you so much for explaining how to work it!

As stated at the start of this message if anyone could extend something to renaming image titles in source mode as well that would be even extra good. Right now would be using massrename to change the code titles on an episode page, and then having to check individual character pages (since images are shared across episode and character galleries - Ash in episode 1, 2 and so on) and manually checking the image titles like here and matching them to the updated titles here.
