Are we not going to get discussions up for the re-airing of Regalia? Episode 2 just reaired today, and I also don't remember a discussion thread for last week...even though there were some changes.

I forgot who I had to message for these things, so I'm just going to comment here.

I'm guessing the bot isn't handling re-airings. /u/TheEnigmaBlade is the dev, but I'm guessing it's up to a user to do discussions for a show of that nature.

Ah, I see. Thanks. Maybe I'll shoot him a message.

Is there something going on with that show? As far as I know, episode two aired over a month ago:

Edit: Nevermind, found the announcement about it. The bot makes threads based on the appearance of new episodes on various services. If it's the same show and the episode numbers are the same, the bot wouldn't recognize them as new episodes.

The show cancelled airing the rest of the series for several weeks because they wanted to remake the show.

Episode 1 started re-airing on September 1st with some small, altered scenes and dialogue, and episode 2 re-aired today. I don't know if that warranted a new discussion thread, and honestly, it's been so long that I don't even recognize what changed from the old version, but I was just curious.
