- 1反高潮
When events have been building toward a high point — a story, a sports final, a big reveal — and then what happens is weak, small, or oddly ordinary, so the air goes out of the room. You were ready to feel a lot, and the ending does not earn it. “The last episode was an anticlimax” is a very common complaint.
