The '''Post
Note that this is not always synonymous with [[Anticlimax Boss]]; a climax is the "highest tension" part of a story or conflict, and everything after that is falling action after the rising action peaks. This would be a brief spike in the action before all conflicts are resolved and everything is summed up.
As this is an [[Ending Trope]], '''there will be Spoilers.''' You have been warned.

* This trope may best be illustrated by the fistfight in ''[[Metal Gear Solid]]''. Snake has just destroyed his biggest, toughest enemy, a rampaging giant robot, and after returning to consciousness, he fights Liquid bare-knuckled and shirtless on the remains of the robot. Although unlike most examples of this trope, Liquid is a legitimate threat and can be a challenging fight; in fact, he can be tougher than Metal Gear Rex was.
* Possibly the earliest known example: In the original NES [[Bionic Commando]], after killing Hitler, you must escape the base. As you climb out of the soon to explode base, you face one last enemy standing in the way of your escape.
