Line 12:
In [[Anime]] and [[Manga]], it seems to often be implied that characters are this way because they have low blood pressure. In the west, these characters are more prone to [[Must Have Caffeine|desperately need coffee in the mornings]] instead. Of course, coffee isn't exactly known to lower blood pressure, so both can go hand in hand.
If you [[Wake Up, Go to School, Save The World]], you will most likely be like this. Crime-fighting always beats out sleep, for some reason. Sometimes these characters are also [[Heavy Sleeper|Heavy Sleepers]] in general, but not always. They may also have a tendency to [[Ring Ring CRUNCH|kill roosters and smash alarm clocks]]. Then again [[Slept Through the Apocalypse|some days you really don't want to wake up early]].
Can be [[Truth in Television]], as [[Most Tropers Are Young Nerds|many a troper]] could probably tell you.
{{examples
== Anime & Manga ==
* Ryoma from ''[[Prince of Tennis]]''. A whole anime episode was dedicated to him sleeping in before the Saint Rudolph match and his friends trying to fill in before he gets to the courts.
* Kyouya Ootori from ''[[Ouran High School Host Club]]''. He's sometimes referred to as the "Low Blood Pressure Overlord" because of it. Also, [[Token Mini
** More like annihilating an entire platoon, complete with bunny shaped mushroom cloud. Of course, it may not be accurate given that [[Unreliable Narrator|the narrator is not known for his reliability]].
** According to an extra chapter in the manga, [[The Stoic|Mo]][[The Quiet One|ri]] becomes sociable and flirty when he's sleepy. Considering his character, it's hard to say whether or not this is being played straight.
Line 97:
** And ''The Wind Waker''. And ''Ocarina of time''. And ''The Minish Cap''. Possibly also ''A Link to the past'' -- OK, let's just say, Link's Not a Morning Person in general...
*** And now ''Skyward Sword'' as well.
** And since it's always at the beginning of the game, it overlaps with [[Good Morning, Crono]].
** Though apart from the games' openings Link tends to qualify as [[The Sleepless]].
* Rin Tohsaka from ''[[Fate Stay Night]]''. She's not quite as bad as the other examples but tends to be decidedly grumpy in the mornings... Actually, it clashes with her perfect schoolgirl image so badly that even after knowing her for awhile, people are outright shocked to see her dragging about in the morning, completely at a loss for words and unsure if what they've just seen was real.
