Ideally, your blu-ray ripping software ought to have an option to tag each episode. Which ripping software are you using?

Usually, handbrake (the rip software I use) will do that for me.
However, I have had a disc set or two where the video was stored as one "container" instead of separated by episodes (you could select episodes from the CD player menu, but the physical data was not separate).
For those, I use either OpenShot or Shotcut. Each has a slightly different user interface. Shotcut is the program I use to edit my own videos because it will allow me to save them in 1020p on the machine I have. OpenShot will also allow me to try, but my machine is not powerful enough to allow it to save above 720p. For most of the shows I have on DVD, they were from the pre-HD period (some are black and white!) so
being able to save in 1020p is not necessary, and is sometimes even not preferred.
I like them both so I would suggest trying them both and see which one
you like. I am using them on linux machines so the Windows versions
might differ.

I use handbrake. You can rip from DVD/BRD or you can encode from a
certain time to a certain time. If you have chapters you can also
encode certain chapters in mp4 or mkv format.

Makemkv. With Tanya the evil, each episode was a track, but with Berserk, it's all one file.

What do you mean by "episodes"? If they're TV shows, each episode should already be a separate video when you rip it.
I don't have a whole lot of experience with video cutting & such, but I've sometimes used a few tools to do that. Off the top of my head, Handbrake
(a transcoder) can be given a start & end time in a video and will produce
a video just from that range of time from the source video. And Handbrake is free.
As I've stated, one of my dvd sets (Tanya the Evil) has separate files for each episode. My other one (25 eps on 2 discs) has all of the episodes in one file. I'll have to manually cut them out.
Are there tutorials for either? I couldn't figure them out to save my
life.
I looked at FAQs, but that's for advanced questions, not "How do I cut
out
videos"...

Not necessarily. I have at least one set ("One Step Beyond") where I can choose to play separate episodes if I have the CD loaded into a player but, when I went to rip the episodes they were all in one "container" so I did need a video editor to separate them.

They're on CD? Are they Video CDs? Interesting to hear of a show
released that way, rather than on DVD or blu-ray. I'd heard of the
Video CD format but have never seen anything officially released on
Video CD where I am.

This is ending up being too complicated. I was hoping there would
actually
be a tool to do this with minimal hands-on stuff. Something where I
would
enter the number of episodes, or an estimated run-time for each
episode and
merely move the cutting points. Not having to do it from scratch for
25
episodes... This is too much of a hassle to bother with. I'll have
to
torrent the episodes and not feel bad since I own them :(

If the rip program couldn't determine where each episode started and
ended, there is not going to be another program that is likely to be able
to do so. It really isn't too difficult if you watch YT videos about editing video using one of those programs. You can load the video and
then give it a time to go forward to (like the approx length of an
episode) to get you near the end of each one.
Thank you. I have a commercial version of VideoProc and that had some really
intuitive cutting features that I didn't know of previously. I was
able to
make short work of the episodes.
