Morrissey meets Anime


It's not often that a person can mention Morrissey and anime in the same sentence, and given that I'm a fan of both, I couldn't resist this opportunity.

No, there isn't a Morrissey anime coming out. I'm talking about a brief reference in Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad, an anime TV series about a rock band. The closing credits sequence of that show features a montage of illustrations (of various rock artists), and at least one illustration is a Morrissey/Smiths reference.

Obviously, it's supposed to be the cover of Hatful of Hollow, and "Mo" at the bottom left looks a bit like Moz.

This is another image from the sequence that might be Morrissey. If it's based on a real photograph, I can't figure out which one it's supposed to be, but maybe fans who are more die-hard than I am will figure it out.

  1. A fellow Morrissey fan pointed me to the following image: http://www.compsoc.man.ac.uk/~moz/pictures/aug96.png

    Yup, it looks like the basis for the second illustration.

    Thanks!

  5. That's really interesting! It's always fun to see unexpected references to things we love in different media. Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad sounds like an interesting show, especially for music fans. https://www.goodgarages.net/

  6. Whichever one it is intended to be, I can't figure out, but maybe more devoted fans than I am will figure it out. Visit www.aucklandconcretedriveways.co.nz
