Wake up. Take shower. Comb hair. Brush teeth. Trim nosehair. Get dressed. Eat breakfast. Miss bus. Look familiar? It should. Sequences that show a character following their average Morning Routine are incredibly common. It's a standard story opener, for several reasons: it's a way to introduce a character immediately, it shows the normal routine (to better contrast when wackiness ensues), and it's something we're all pretty familiar with—even those of us who rue mornings. This can also be used as an Establishing Character Moment — we know a character is Obsessively Organized if they follow a strict schedule down to the minute, and a slob if they sniff their armpit and decide they can skip the shower. Like the White Void Room, it's something of a cliche and is commonly perceived as an opening that serves until the plot takes hold. Then again, like all tropes, it can be used to great effect — for instance, the opening sequence of Dexter. Surprisingly, Slice of Life works can avoid this for quite some time — mainly because there's a choice of other routines. Using the toilet is usually conspicuously absent from the routine, because in fictionland Nobody Poops. Synchronized Morning Routine is a subtrope. Wake Up, Go to School & Save the World isn't. See also Day in the Life. Compare Easing into the Adventure, Good Morning, Crono. Often ends with the character Late for School or work. |

Puella Magi Madoka Magica: The first episode shows Madoka's morning routine, starting with her waking up from a strange dream, waking up her family members, getting dressed, eating breakfast; all sorts of everyday normal activities. Used to show Madoka's roots in normality, and provide contrast for the changes that come. | |

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone starts off by showing the Dursleys' morning routine. ("Mr. Dursley hummed as he picked out his most boring tie for work.") Although the second chapter takes place on Dudley's birthday, it's apparently a fairly typical morning for Harry as he's woken up by Aunt Petunia and forced to make breakfast. | |

Dexter: The opening sequence is Dexter's typical morning, but shot so that his normal morning routine reminds viewers at every turn of who he really is; his floss becomes a garrotte, him pulling on his shirt becomes a sheet laid over the face of a corpse, and so on. It's very effectively creepy, and won an Emmy. | |

Then the same sequence happens again but with Musicalis Interruptus and a mutual Jaw Drop from Shinji and Pen Pen as Misato exits her room done up neatly in her uniform because she's attending a conference. She might be a slob at home but not at her job. | |

Daredevil (2015): "Shadows in the Glass": Wilson Fisk's morning routine is done as a Rule of Threes, showing his luxurious but lonely life. The third time is different as Vanessa is now living with him. "The Perfect Game": Agent Poindexter's morning routine reflects his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Along with Undercrank to make his movements look alien and robotic, the opening scene underscores how odd Dex is by showing how everything in his apartment has to be absolutely perfect. When he's done reading the newspaper, he puts it on a perfectly squared pile of other newspapers. He rinses his coffee cup, puts it on a rack to dry, then makes sure the handle is perfectly aligned with its neighbor. When he closes the door to his apartment it causes a framed photo to fall off-kilter, so he opens the door back up to fix it. |

"The Perfect Game": Agent Poindexter's morning routine reflects his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Along with Undercrank to make his movements look alien and robotic, the opening scene underscores how odd Dex is by showing how everything in his apartment has to be absolutely perfect. When he's done reading the newspaper, he puts it on a perfectly squared pile of other newspapers. He rinses his coffee cup, puts it on a rack to dry, then makes sure the handle is perfectly aligned with its neighbor. When he closes the door to his apartment it causes a framed photo to fall off-kilter, so he opens the door back up to fix it. | |

Godzilla vs. Kong opens with a rather humorous sequence showing Kong waking with a yawn, taking a leisurely stroll through his (at this point danger-free) territory, washing his head in a waterfall with a relaxed groan — hearing "Over the Mountain (Across the Sea)" by Bobby Vinton further sells it. And then we see Kong fashioning a tree into a spear and hurling it at the containment dome's fake sky in anger, with a later scene in the film showing he's made several more identical impacts during the time skip. | |
