I can't find too much information yet on the 2012 edition of Shizuka's show in Japan but Ilia just confirmed that he will be skating in it Aug. 24-26. So we know about Arakawa and Kulik so far - there will be lots more!!

Can't wait !!!
I doubt anyone would try a season program, but who knows ?

No Lysacek? He always does Shizuka shows, right? Maybe this means he will get the TBA spot at Skate America and will be at Champs Camp? Or is there a Senior B competition close to that date (I remember he said he would do one to get the minimum scores required)?
Champs camp Aug. 21-26 (tentative) and that would indeed prevent him from participating in 2012 Shizuka show.

There was earlier info about Lysacek competing at Nebelhorn Trophy, it will be held near the end of September.

thank you !!
I've got some mails from my friends and they said that one of the biggest highlights that made the audience go crazy was a collaboration of "Swan Lake". Shizuka's Techno Swan, Daisuke's Hip Hop Swan and Miki's Black Swan. The audience screamed, screamed and screamed and one of them said she almost broke her throat.![]()
I found some really nice photos!
