Does that say " booyah" in Japanese? I'm presuming it's Japanese; I don't speak foreign.
The second bottom one with Japanese katakana モリッシー
In Japanese there is a rule that foreign names (except Chinese and some Korean) are written in katakana.

Just let you know in Chinese his name is written as 莫里西

Thanks for the explanation, Kewpie. Have a good day.
 
I generally find the pleasure of a tee is in the wearing, not the purchase. The purchasing is surely their pleasure? Weird, perhaps it’s me?

If it's meant to say Morrissey, as on this tour poster, I don't quite understand why the final character has been rotated ninety degrees.

 
Just bought the t shirt with the silhouette of his face on it in the sale part of the site for £15 (plus postage). Wanted one for ages.

It'll be the reward I need on Monday after having to go for x-rays! Dontcha just love hospitals...

"ー" isn't a character, it's a dash to express a long syllable in Japanese.
Because Japanese is a mono-syllabic language.

Traditionally Japanese is written vertical, but nowadays like many other languages such as English, can be written in horizontal as well.

Interesting, thanks for explaining. I had thought all the syllables in his name were short.
