I don't think there will be an extra re-airing soon. There is a two-week gap between the airings on Fuji TV and BS Fuji. So the revised edition might be aired on other channels if they make it. If they can't, it will be likely to be released first on Blu-ray.

A shame that the ep is a tad poor but good news going forward for the viewers, myself included.

I noticed that last week too I was like what is going on with the quality recently? "What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character thats for sure!"

Some of it looked truly terrible and it stood out even more as the quality had previously been excellent - disappointing as ep 17 was kind of important Makes you wonder how bad ep 18 turned out?

Proportions where different, faces were screwed up and it was awkwardly animated... I think it was the episode where the wheelchair chick gets those robot-legs.
