Shinichiro Watanabe and Yoko Kanno back together at last! The Cowboy Bebop duo are reteaming to adapt Yuki Kodama's award-winning manga Sakamichi no Apollon, a sixties set school drama about alienated teens and the power of jazz. I've watched this thirty-second tease about a billion times now - that short clip of the twiggy drumsticks going to work is the most exciting piece of animation I've seen in a good while. Watanabe's patented mix of agitated hyperkinetics and despondent navel-gazing look set to kill this.
