It's time to say goodbye. You've just delivered your loyal audience a Grand Finale (or a Season Finale) that stunned them into silence, tugged on their heartstrings, made them shout for joy, and hopefully wrapped everything up in a befitting and satisfying package. However, there's one last thing to do: the credits sequence. Sure, you could use the same standard credits you've used in every other episode. But it's the finale, so why shouldn't the credits be as special as the rest of it?
As the name suggests, Finale Credits is when the final installment of a work has different Closing Credits than what you'd normally see from that series. Some examples include using a Solemn Ending Theme or extended version of the Theme Tune, a montage of the series' most iconic moments, and the credits playing over the final scene.
See also Special Edition Title, where this is done with opening titles.
Since this is a Credits Trope, there will be spoilers in some of the examples below.

The UK Challenge version of Takeshi's Castle ends the final episode with one of these, with Craig Charles speaking in a more poignant tone in contrast to his usual upbeat narration from the rest of the series, as the eponymous castle catches fire and burns down.

Cheers: Episodes of Cheers always ended with a still of the bar while yellow-colored credits popped up, accompanied by a whimsical, peppy clarinet closing theme. However, for series finale "One for the Road", white credits played over a solid black background, with a melancholy, Lonely Piano Piece version of the closing theme.

Jeeves and Wooster: The credits roll over footage of Bertie and Jeeves being chased in circles around the church by angry wedding attendees. As the last credit comes up, the image freeze-frames on the two racing through the front gate before fading over to the animated band from the opening sequence, which bounces/dissolves into the white background as the final notes of the theme song play which is followed by a special black Carnival Films and Granada end board. On the 2011 UK restored DVD however, the freeze-frame was cut and instead in its place, we slowly zoom into the angry wedding attendees chasing Bertie and Jeeves before fading over to the animated band from the opening sequence, which bounces/dissolves into the white background as the final notes of the theme song play.

Star Trek: Picard: The end credits for the Season 1 finale features a blue nebula instead of a plain black background. The music is arranged differently with a faster tempo and a more upbeat tone, with the over-all effect being that the crew of La Sirena is warping to a glorious new adventure.

The season 1 finale of M.I. High had the picture freeze after Daisy's last line and fade to black over the credits, rather than giving one last gag.
The season 5 finale has the credits playing over the green background from the show's title as opposed to playing over the last scene, as well as playing a heroic-sounding piece of music as opposed to the usual music.

Fullmetal Alchemist:
Fullmetal Alchemist (2003): The credits roll and the theme goes as the brothers reminisced on the meaning of Equivalent Exchange and their promise to reunite. This actually results in Alphonse completing the first opening narration, which had been hinted at for the whole series to be incomplete.
Brotherhood has this for its final two episodes (as the final one is a Dénouement Episode). Episode 63 doesn't have an opening, and the OP theme is used as the ending, over Hohenheim's Really Dead Montage. Episode 64 likewise has no opening, but the episode ends with the second OP theme playing over a collection of photos displaying the cast's futures.

The final episode of the Fist of the North Star anime series (or more precisely Hokuto no Ken 2, the Sequel Series) has Kenshiro riding away on his horse Kokuoh while a montage of every major character in the series up to that point (plus a couple of anime-originals that managed to sneaked in as well) is shown at the background. Instead of "Love Song" by Tom Cat, the usual ending theme of Hokuto no Ken 2, ending theme for this episode was Crystal King's "Yuria Towa ni", the first closing theme of the original series.

Subverted with Neighbours. The show's original finale episode in 2022 had the full remaining cast at an in-universe goodbye party, with the credits overlaying old pictures from the show's past. The final shot is of the cast waving goodbye and saying thank you. The show has since been revived by Amazon.

Excel♡Saga normally shows Menchi (the dog) singing "Bolero of Sorrow - So, You are Going to Eat Me" while a woman reads the translation. At the end of the final episode, "Going Too Far", the translator trades places with Menchi. She crawls on screen wearing a dog collar and leash and sings the bolero, while Menchi reads the translation (into dog-ese). Note that Menchi, the dog, never actually wore a dog collar during the normal ending credits. The song also sounds fairly innocent when Menchi sings it, but has a lot of double meanings when the woman sings it. There are also some jokes in the credits, but that happens in every episode (with one exception).
The last episode also has a gag version of the opening credits.
The second-to-last episode "We Will Not Be Held Responsible" skips the opening credits, and uses a modified version as the ending credits, including clips of what happens to some of the characters afterwards. This episode was the last episode broadcast, since "Going Too Far" was partly a Take That! directed at the censors.

In the series finale of The Young Ones, the manic, ska-style Ending Theme was replaced with a slower, sax-heavy '50s-style piece as the credits listed, in alphabetical order, every single person who had appeared on or contributed to the show in any way throughout its run. Considering the way the show ended (the lads, their landlord, and SPG the hamster all die), the effect is, strangely, rather wistful and heartfelt.

The Asterisk War's season 1 ending credits originally had a mirrored shot of two Julises turning to each other, reaching out, and passing through each other. Later, this was changed to show the two Julises pressing their hands together. In the first season finale, it shows the two Julises clasping hands, breaking their symmetry, and then touching their heads together and looking into each other's eyes.

The Owl House has the credits forgo the traditonal artstyle of their credits by having "Watching and Dreaming" end with the credits overlaying an epilogue/"where are they now" for the series. This culminates in a stinger, showing Luz's 18th birthday party.

Marvel Cinematic Universe:
Iron Man 3 uses a montage from all 3 films in its series.
Avengers: Endgame tops that beyond all compare. As the Grand Finale to the eleven-year and twenty-two-movie long Myth Arc, the cast roll call shows up to a whopping fifty-four names on-screen, with the original six Avengers saved for last, each with their figures shown onscreen with clips behind them and the actors' signatures, akin to Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. 39 of the first 48 are individually named with an accompanying clip from their appearances in past movies.

To honor Farscape's passing, the 4th season finale had absolutely no music during the credits. The only sound is the deep swoosh of Moya as she glides past the camera. The show got brought back as a miniseries, although the projected storyline was badly truncated.

Kaguya-sama: Love Is War: The final episode of the first anime season has pretty much the entire cast get dragged into a giant stampede that follows Shirogane and Kaguya until they're all standing in a circle as the pair reaffirm their goal to make the other confess. The second season instead has Fujiwara's balloon-popping game blow up the entire school, causing the various cast members to fly by the screen (long enough for their actors to get credited) before it ends on Shirogane helping Kaguya to her feet in the ruins of the "destroyed" school. Both scenes can be presumed to be purely metaphorical, as they would otherwise create plot holes.

Subverted with Phineas and Ferb. While "Last Day of Summer" was originally meant to be the final episode back in 2015, having the credits overlay a final song recapping the events of the show, with Doof and OWCA on good terms, as well as the boy's seemingly being allowed to know Perry is Agent P. The show has since been confirmed by Dan Povenmire to be getting a full revival.

With the Kamen Rider franchise, most of the Heisei series will have the final episode skip the opening theme, then play it at the end of the episode over ending credits, which is noteworthy because these shows almost never have end credits in the first place (exceptions being Kuuga and the first half of Hibiki). Specific examples:
Kamen Rider BLACK RX: Footage of the previous Showa Riders were edited into the final closing credits.
Kamen Rider Kuuga: After saying goodbye to some kids he just met, Yusuke walks down a beach and the credits are cued over that with the second verse of the ending theme playing.
Kamen Rider Den-O: The actual closing credits are cued up over Ryotaro on his bike riding next to the DenLiner with everyone saying goodbye whilst "Climax Jump" plays in the background.
Kamen Rider Kiva: Wataru's son from the future bursts into the church where everyone was and declare that villains named "Neo Fangire" have appeared. Everyone then does a final henshin and the show ends with everyone doing a Rider Kick to the screen.
Kamen Rider Decade: The exception among the Heisei shows; it ends not with credits as with the preceding series (or special ending sequences and whatnot) but rather on a completely abrupt cliffhanger note with the same (lack of) closing sequence as all preceding episodes. This is because the finale is a theatrical release.
Kamen Rider Double: Shotaro and Philip transform into Double for the first time in a year and fight one last Dopant, ending with them delivering their catchphrase: "Now, count up your crimes!"
Kamen Rider Gaim: The main plot actually wrapped up in the penultimate episode, while the final episode is a postscript several months set several months later. The credits show the sacred tree has been replanted in its original location, Mai says farewell to Kaito's spirit as he moves on to the afterlife, then she and Kouta return to "Planet Helheim" — which has gone from inhospitable to blue and fertile during the Time Skip.

The series finale ends with a peaceful, rather than suspenseful note. Instead of the regular credits under spooky music, shots of the Flight 815 wreckage on the beach to ambient sound (which the producers described as an attempt at Relax-o-Vision after a Tear Jerker final scene).

Ojamajo Doremi:
Dokkan ended with a rendition of "Watashi no Tsubasa" being sung by Doremi's class, with the first half playing over a montage where the class graduates, and the second half played over the normal animation.
Naisho played a montage of events that happened in episode 13 in a screen to the left, whilst the credits were cued over black to the right. The usual closing theme was played.
S1 and Sharp had this too. The Tear Jerker musics that were the ending themes drove the point home regarding exactly what happened just prior to those endings...

Extended, finale-style credits were famously seen on the would-be finale of the August 1, 1980, episode of the NBC Wheel of Fortune. NBC had given the ax to Wheel in early July 1980, likely to make way for the new soap opera "Texas." However, the cancellation order is quickly overturned and two 90-minute programs on the schedule – The David Letterman Show and Another World – are cut by 30 minutes each instead.

Gosei Sentai Dairanger: The credits are cued over the Dairangers (who are now grandparents) remembering their adventures over the series whilst their grandkids, whom have inherited their powers, beat up a monster with the DaiRenOh with the opening theme playing rather than the usual ending theme.
Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger: The opening song are played over the Hurricangers and Goraigers getting their diploma scroll from Mugensai easily, showing their amazing progress over the series while at the same time showing them getting on with their lives and jobs and also a scene with the Shurikenger's previous hosts showing up at the restaurant where the five are eating and the cook yelling "STOP!" at them showing that he may be Shurikenger.
Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger: The credits are cued over the three remaining Abaranger and their friends having a reunion and eating at the Dino Snack.
Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger: The opening theme plays over the credits cued over Tetsu announcing his permanent assignment to SPD's Earth division (he has a silver badge) and the other Dekarangers getting on with their lives/job. Includes Ban, who is now a member of the SPD Fire Squad, an all-red ranger squad. After the credits, it shows the first case of Super Sentai Passing the Torch. DekaRed is show meeting and shaking hands with MagiRed, the Red Ranger of Mahou Sentai Magiranger.
GoGo Sentai Boukenger: The credits are cued over Bouken Red leaving for outer space, with Bouken Pink stowing away. Meanwhile, the remaining Boukengers continue to defend Earth against Shizuka. At the very end as Boukenred's ship flies away from Earth, the words "Bouken Dreams On" appear behind the vessel (a reference to the regular closing credits where the words "Bouken Dreams" would appear in front of the Boukengers).
Juken Sentai Gekiranger: The credits are cued over Geki Red leaving to go on a trip and scenes of the other rangers' battles in the series.
Engine Sentai Go-onger played a special rendition of the ending theme entitled "Engine Winning Lap" over the usual (later) ending credits.
Samurai Sentai Shinkenger. There's no ending song, and the credits are played as one by one the vassals say goodbye to Takeru, and ends with Takeru looking outside the Shiba house, and the narrator said his catchphrase: "This brings the chapter to a close."
Tensou Sentai Goseiger: The credits are cued over the Goseigers going their separate ways.
Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger: The opening theme is played rather than the usual ending theme. The credits are cued over the Gokaiger aboard their vessel as it leaves Earth, whilst Capt. Marvelous returns the Ranger Keys to their original owners (and thus we see cameos from numerous Sentai alumni).

Sonic X does this with both the last and next-to-last episodes, at least in the original version. The next-to-last has Tails and Cosmo talking to each other one last time while standing in a bright, white void. The last episode ends with a still image of a plant pot with a tiny seedling growing in it, presumably the white seed that Cosmo left behind.

Doctor Who:
All the way back in Season 2 of the classic series (1965), the end credits for the last episode featured, successively, artistically posterized faces of William Hartnell, Maureen O'Brien, and Peter Purves against a starfield just before the credits rolled, representing the End of an Age with the departures of William Russell and Jacqueline Hill at the end of the previous story (thus making Hartnell the only remaining member of the show's original lineup).
The final episode of Tom Baker's final season had his face electronically distorted.
While not a season finale, the final episode of Peter Davison's final story replaces his face in the closing credits with that of his successor, Colin Baker. The actual season finale would be much more mundane, featuring the closing sequence that would be standard for Baker's run.
The final episode of Matt Smith's first season featured the credits being cued over the opening titles (with the credits and logo removed) as the episode ended with the TARDIS flying through the time vortex.

The end of the Grand Finale of The Worst Witch, at the end of the original broadcast on CBBC, has the song "Nobody Knows" by Kate Alexa playing over the credits, minus the Credits Pushback, as a sendoff to the series. It was edited out in reruns, BBC iPlayer, and Netflix, and it was replaced by the show's theme song playing one last time.

The credits show the sacred tree has been replanted in its original location, Mai says farewell to Kaito's spirit as he moves on to the afterlife, then she and Kouta return to "Planet Helheim" — which has gone from inhospitable to blue and fertile during the Time Skip.

Angel Beats! usually ends with a montage of the camera initially being zoomed in on Yuri, and the camera zooms out as the other character start to appear. When the camera is fully zoomed out, the entire episode cast is completely shown. But for the finale, the credits start with a fully zoomed out, full cast shot of the series, but the camera start to zoom in with the character slowly fading away signaling that they moved up from the afterlife, and the final shot is the camera completely zoomed in, but all the characters have faded away.
