Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A montage of various locations (and their major landmarks), with or without their inhabitants, which are being catastrophically obliterated or soon to be. Usually depicts The End of the World as We Know It. A hallmark of Disaster Movies. This is what happens when a villain Storyboarding the Apocalypse succeeds. Contrast Spreading Disaster Map Graphic, which likewise illustrates a catastrophe's scope, but at a resolution that's too large-scale to show individual landmarks. Likely involves lots of Scenery Gorn. This trope is inherently spoileriffic, be wary! |

In Odin Sphere the entire last act counts as this and will end with the death of the world in every version. The best possible outcome is nature growing back with Oswald and Gwendolyn surviving to restart mankind and Velvet and Cornelius as Pooka helping the animal population. | |

Lavos' various appearances in Chrono Trigger always leads to one of these: it more or less causes the extinction of the dinosaurs when it strikes the earth in 65 Million BC, it destroys the Floating Continent in 12000 BC, and it destroys human civilization entirely in the Day of Lavos (and witnessing the Apocalyptic Log of this is what spurs our heroes to do something about it). And then there's the Downer Ending you get if you lose to Lavos... | |

Doraemon: Nobita and the Steel Troops deals with a Robot War that gradually reaches earth, but thanks to one of his gadgets, Doraemon managed to trick the robot army to enter a mirror universe (via a Portal Pool) into a world that looks exactly like ours, but completely uninhabited. In a series of massive invasion scenes (more prominent in the anime than the manga) we get to see the robots obliterate Tokyo, Hong Kong, New York, Paris and London... and questioning why are the cities devoid of life. | |

In Kingsman: The Secret Service, we see the effects of the hate plague unfold in three different cities. Something of a subversion for the whole gentleman spy genre in and of itself as it actually shows the beginning of what is actually a terrifying way for the world to end, rather than it being stopped with seconds left on the countdown. | |
