Hi I found a news article on Miki and Taka-chan who will participate in Cup of China this week.

http://www.nikkansports.com/sports/news/f-sp-tp0-20101103-697839.html

Miki and Taka-chan left for China on Nov. 3 from Chyubu Int'l Airport.
Miki looks calm saying although she got her new skates just two weeks ago, she wants to do her best.
Taka-chan says he's been practicing so hard that he feels some pain in his heels, but it's nothing serious and he can skate as usual. He thinks his steps and jumps have been improving because he's been working on them very hard.

Go, Go Miki and Taka-chan

Very excited for miki!!!she got very good reviews after Japan Open! hope she tries and lands the quad this season. hoping to see a 3-3 too!!! i wonder if she will try it this early in the season.

I can't wait to see Mirai and Brian Ladies competition will be the most interesting because both: Mirai and Miki are very strong. Men's competition will be interesting either, because Brian can become the first in the figure skating history who won all Grand Prix events

GO BRIAN!!

Is there possibility Miki will try to do quad again?! That would be awesome!!! But did she ever mention about it?

Thanks europeanfan for the link!!

The article which I linked above says nothing about jump layout.

According to the following article, during the official practice on the 4th, Miki and Akiko looked particularly in good form. Miki landed 3z-3l and Akiko's 2A-3T was consistent. Kozuka and Tomoki Machida landed quads.

I don't think Miki is going to try quad. She rarely talks about quads recently.
I wonder if Miki will include 3z-3l in her program. I wish I could see it.

I hope Mirai is fine by now and will show us fantastic performances.

Go! Go! Miki, Akiko, Taka-chan, Machida and Mirai

OMG I am so excited! Go Miki!!!
Go Taka!!! I do cheer for Joubie too

There is this short video of Joubie, Taka and Miki

Wow! Thanks for all the updates guys! What an exciting field!
Miki ganba! Akiko ganba! Mirai ganba! Taka, Brian ganba!

is there any other link I can watch live broadcast?
I cannot watch it with the above links

For the briefest of moments I thought I over-napped in preparation for the event (it's past midnight here).

1. Mirai Nagasu - 58.76
2. Akiko Suzuki - 57.97
3. Miki Ando -56.11

Awww I hope Miki recovers and win Gold, although I really like Mirai and Akiko .
Miki did 3Lz-3Lo ( I think the loop was downgraded), 3F and 2A (very shaky)

Miki did awesome 3lutz-3loop yet she is in third place...
I'm not too fond of her program but her score seems so low for what she did and I wanna know why..
