In any series of ostensibly similar individuals, the last one will always be smaller than (or otherwise different from) the rest, and will often cause more trouble than the others. Just to drive the point home, they may have an Odd Name Out. When the Youngest Child Wins, the child is often The Runt at the End, and may also be The Fool. In less sensitive works, will also often be a Butt-Monkey. Be careful, because sometimes The Runt at the End turns out to be a Pint-Sized Powerhouse. Compare Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking. The One Guy is a Sub-Trope about a very easy difference to use. Also see Odd Last Item Index. |

In The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, a group of cowardly castle guards run away from having to help someone across a certain very dangerous field (so Link has to do it) and the pint-sized, plump one at the end is the last to run away. Hilarity and annoyance ensue. | |

In Finland, the last person of a line who is smaller than the others is referred to as "the tip of the tail" after a scene in the country's national novel Seven Brothers, where the titular siblings are mocked in a song which ends by calling the youngest brother Eero, who's always lagging behind, the tip of their tail. Eero is also the smartest of the lot, though his quick tongue often puts him at odds with his brothers. |

Abraxas (Hrodvitnon): On top of his Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019) points (see below), San, the left head of Ghidorah, is by far the most redeemable of the trio. He isn't as interested in being an Omnicidal Maniac as his brother heads are (which is mainly what they want), he's curious about everything around him instead of seeing humans as nothing more than prey, insects and enemies for him to torment, and he genuinely values Vivienne Graham first as a doll and then later as a sister. The latter trait enables Vivienne to guide San through a Heel–Face Turn. | |

Tom had a similar experience in Tom and Jerry cartoon "The Brothers Carry Mouse Off". Tom dressed himself as a female mouse to catch Jerry and ended up chased by other tom-cats, the last one of them quite small but hoping to catch him as much as the rest. | |

The director's cut of Naked Gun 33⅓: The Final Insult, which was the version shown on American television, had an extra gag when Frank Drebin was arriving at the state prison (going undercover as an inmate to infiltrate a gang of terrorists). Frank is led past cells containing increasingly intimidating criminals: a guy so tough he lights matches by scraping them across his face, a guy so tough he lights firewood by scraping it across his face, an African lion, and… a mime, who is not in a cell and who thinks he's in an "invisible cage." (In the theatrical version, only the first two guys were shown.) | |

Of course, The Simpsons does this a great deal: One episode centers around the nuclear plant's workers' union. Every time they hold a vote, everyone votes Aye, except for one nebbish little voice that chimes in with "Nay". Eventually Homer asks "Who keeps saying that?" Cut to a beefy blond guy and The Runt at the End. The runt points at the beefy guy and says (in that same voice) "It was him! Let's get him, fellas!" As the other workers pound the guy into pudding, the runt chuckles. From the same show, when a mob war between Fat Tony's mob and the Yakuza erupts on their front lawn, Homer, in a moment of Genre Savvyness, recognizes the little Yakuza member as a Pint-Sized Powerhouse. Another episode had Mr Burns releasing the hounds, where the usual procession of vicious guard dogs is followed by the elderly and obese "Crippler", who has apparently been around since the Sixties. In the episode in which the Springfield Elementary school bus crashes into the ocean and drifts off to a desert island, Bart has to swim down to the submerged bus to retrieve emergency supplies for himself and the rest of the kids. He sees various huge, scary sea creatures as he swims past, and finally has to confront a gigantic puffer fish...which then exhales, deflating down into a tiny minnow. Bart laughs and turns to leave — and then the little fish bites his butt, ripping off a portion of his swim trunks (so you could say the fish "ate his shorts"). In a Deleted Scene from "The Last Tempation of Homer", after Homer crashes his car through the fence of the Trout Hatchery, he manages to attract a large clowder of cats. A white kitten brings up the rear end. |

Looney Tunes: "A Corny Concerto" fused this with an inversion of "The Ugly Duckling": a black duckling (a kid version of Daffy Duck actually) attached itself to a family of swans, adding a discordant visual and auditory note to their graceful progress. In the Wile E Coyote And The Roadrunner cartoon "Ready, Set, Zoom!", when the Coyote dons an Acme Female Roadrunner Costume and is chased not by the Roadrunner but by many other hungry coyotes, the last coyote is noticeably smaller than the others. One of the home movies in Porky's Preview involves a horse-race, with a slow and lazy horse and jockey helpfully labeled "Crosby's Horse" bringing up the rear. In Another Froggy Evening, when the frog's latest victim is thrown to the lions and tigers, the last feline in the pack is a cameo of tuxedo kitten Pussyfoot from the Marc Anthony shorts. In the classic Bugs Bunny cartoon Little Red Riding Rabbit, The Big Bad Wolf discovers several other wolves in Grandma's bed and hustles them out. He starts to climb into the bed, only to have a smaller wolf (who was under the pillow!) scamper out after the others. The gag was repeated in the Sylvester cartoon "Little Red Rodent Hood", with cats instead of wolves. In Hare We Go, Bugs is aboard the Santa Maria in 1492. As weeks drag by with no land in sight, the crew turn on Bugs - he quickly tacks a framed painting of an island on the ship's rail and cries out "Land!". All the crew jump through the frame and overboard...then a little crew guy runs up, and Bugs has to help him over the rail. At the end of Scaredy Cat, Sylvester goes back to the house with a tree to save Porky, and sends all the mice packing. The last mouse who runs away is notably smaller than the rest. Episodes featuring Taz the Tasmanian Devil often have a swarm of animals running for their lives from Taz, usually with a turtle, who predictably isn't a very fast runner, bringing up the rear end (often to warn Bugs that Taz is coming). This gag is repeated in Taz's own show, Taz-Mania. |

Airplane! has a funny one near the end with a long line of emergency vehicles driving onto the runway at the airport in Chicago to deal with the about-to-crash flight from Los Angeles. The vehicles get increasingly puny and ridiculous, ending up with the likes of a beer truck and a weiner-mobile. | |

In the crossover between Engine Sentai Go-onger and Samurai Sentai Shinkenger, part of the big showdown involves the Reds of both teams being chased by Mooks. The Uguts transform into motorcycles for the Nanashi to ride, but one Uguts fails to transform, and he instead has to piggyback a Nanashi around, trying (and failing) to catch up with the rest. | |

A particularly early episode of The Fairly Oddparents had Timmy wishing for "a ton" of clones of himself in order to deal with all the chores imposed on him by Vicky. Cosmo and Wanda do the math and figure out that it adds up to exactly "forty-four and a half Timmies". After Timmy gives the orders to his clones, they all march out of the room grunting like soldiers. Right after the 44th Timmy? A half-sized clone with a high-pitched voice. | |

World of Warcraft: There's a group of ogres that patrol across the Badlands. They walk in a line and the last one is about one-third the size of the others. And then, there's Mazzranache, the evil pink tallstrider of Mulgore. As of Cataclysm, she's followed by a new clutch of babies. The last in line is not only a runt but skitters around erratically. Beauty, the core hound boss in Blackwing with her litter of pups Lucky, Spot, Buster.. and Runty. Runty stays in the back during the fight and hides and is a nonissue through the fight, yet he is still targetable and even killable. If you do, though, prepare for a world of pain from his mother who gains a 200% damage buff when the little guy is killed. And to drive home how much of a runt he is, he has a buff that doesn't do anything, but simply has the description "He's trying his best..." It's heartbreaking. |

The baby rabbit from Robin Hood (1973), who has a hard time keeping up with her older siblings, and ironically, a turtle. This becomes a major plot point during the jailbreak in the climax, where her inability to catch up with all of the jailed villagers held prisoner by Prince John inside his dungeon who are all being freed by Robin Hood and Little John once they all try to escape into Sherwood Forest results in Robin Hood getting himself locked inside the castle instead when he tries to go back and help her escape as well. | |

In Undertale, there is Temmie Village. Citizens are Temmie, Temmie, Temmie, Temmie, Temmie, Temmie, and Bob. While Temmie usually talks in weird internet speech, Bob is able to speak proper English and seems a lot less excited than the others. | |

Wonder Girl: The introduction of Yara Flor means Cassie Sandsmark technically isn't the last Wonder Girl anymore, but she otherwise fit. While every other Wonder Girl is a , composed, Statuesque Stunner brunette whose wardrobes follow distinct themes, Cassie is a below average height, nerdy blonde who tends wear whatever she can pull out of her closet the quickest. Most likely Sandsmark will be wearing something red, but even that can't be counted on. | |

This trope makes an appearance in the original 1947 version of Miracle on 34th Street: At the climactic moment of the film, a parade of burly bailiffs stream into the courtroom each toting two large bags of mail; the parade ends with a smaller bailiff carrying a single bag. | |

In the West End musical Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Charlie Bucket — the last kid to find a Golden Ticket — comes off as this compared to the other four, who are all far better-off and often more glamorous than he is. Nobody thinks this kid will be the one to win the secret super-prize of the tour and he and Grandpa Joe are always bringing up the rear. Of course, another way he differs from the others is being the one kid who doesn't cause trouble during the tour of the factory... | |

This role was filled by Hornswoggle, a dwarf in King Bookah's Court. His Badass Decay started when he became the last of several cruiserweights to enter an open match for Chavo Guerrero Jr.'s title at the 2007 Great American Bash. To the surprise of everyone, he won the title after pinning Jamie Noble (who served as the Butt-Monkey of WWE for several months afterward because of this). But instead of giving him a chance to rise to the occasion as the years have gone by, WWE instead retired the cruiserweight division. | |

The Umbrella Academy: As in the comics example above, Number Seven (this time a trans man named Viktor, played by 5'1'' Elliot Page) is the physically smallest and weakest of the adopted Hargreeves kids, as he has no powers. Emphasized by being the last one numerically (Seven). And subverted when it turns out he has the strongest powers of them all. | |

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs: Dopey is perhaps the best-known Disney example, being smallest and, well, dopey, and also the only one without a beard. Although it's Doc with the Odd Name Out that's always recited last. Snow White also has a turtle who keeps lagging behind the other animals. By the time it catches up, the others are already on their way out. |

In KanColle, the concept "sister ships" are usually translated as "one uniform, one body type per-class", so the differences between "youngest" ship to their "older" sisters can be very jarring. Haguro and Sakawa looked like teenage girls while their older sisters from Myoukou and Agano class respectively are adults (exceptionally so with the Myoukou class) while Kirishima in contrast looks gigantic from her older sisters in her Kai Ni beside being the only one with glasses. But there's no one more glaring than Samidare. Samidare (the sixth) is the last of Shiratsuyu class's Circle One and the only one with different uniform (and character designer), making her look like the name ship of a different class altogether when seeing her younger sister Suzukaze (the tenth) from Circle Two. And as far as the game concerned, she is; when calling others from Circle One her "friends" contrast with Harusame (the fifth), who calls them Big Sisters. | |

Fantasia has several: In the Chinese Dance part of the "Nutcracker Suite", performed by dancing mushrooms. The tiniest one (called "Hop Low" by the animators) has trouble keeping in step with the rest. The little black Pegasus foal in the "Pastoral Symphony" section, who likewise can't keep up and generally screws up ... until all the others are frolicking in a rainbow when the black one comes fluttering down for a perfect landing, the soul of decorum. |

Touken Ranbu has the oodachi: Ishikirimaru, Taroutachi, Jiroutachi, and...Hotarumaru. There's no reason given anywhere for why Hotarumaru's human form is a young boy (like the tantou shortswords) instead of an adult (like the rest of the oodachi and other large swords), especially since Hotarumaru is older than both Taroutachi and Jiroutachi and the actual sword being longer than Ishikirimaru. As a bonus, Hotarumaru is the only four-petal oodachi, meaning that it's very likely that he'll be the last oodachi a player acquires. | |

Happens twice on Phineas and Ferb when Doofenshmirtz decides to clone himself and in another episode when he clones Perry. The botched version of himself doesn't seem to understand the situation and believes Perry to be a bunny. When one of the Perry clones come out awkwardly Doofenshmirtz feels very affectionate towards the poor creature, trying to teach it to use words instead of hitting people (even though the rest of the clones are an army). | |

The head named "Three" has the quirkiest and most distinguishing personality, exhibiting curiosity, a slow attention span, and panic at facing Godzilla, and it gets picked on and treated as a runt by the middle head in particular. | |

Fables: Bigby used to be the runt of his litter, and his name was even given by his brothers as mocking of his tiny size. They abandoned him, but Bigby got bigger, and bigger, and bigger, until he became The Big Bad Wolf of legend. His own youngest child, Ghost, is also different from the rest of his siblings since he's a zephyr, an invisible air elemental. However, the prophecy concerning the children strongly implies that his fate will ultimately be much better than that of his siblings. | |

In the classic Bugs Bunny cartoon Little Red Riding Rabbit, The Big Bad Wolf discovers several other wolves in Grandma's bed and hustles them out. He starts to climb into the bed, only to have a smaller wolf (who was under the pillow!) scamper out after the others. The gag was repeated in the Sylvester cartoon "Little Red Rodent Hood", with cats instead of wolves. | |

Batman: The Animated Series: "Almost Got 'Im" features several members of Batman's Rogues Gallery playing a card game at a nightclub and sharing stories about the occasions when they "almost got" Batman. You wouldn't expect Killer Croc to be the least threatening of the bunch, but he is; as the others' descriptions of their Death Traps get more and more elaborate, Croc fails to impress: Subverted by "Sid the Squid" in "The Man Who Killed Batman". He is the smallest and most pathetic of a gang of crooks but is also the one who always comes out smelling like a rose because of his ridiculously good fortune. |

Snot Rod from Cars appears to lag behind the other Delinquent Road Hazards, the only time he ever catches up is whenever he sneezes. Snot Rod is the only Road Hazard not to be based on a Japanese tuner car (he is based on an American drag racer instead), the only Road Hazard to be colored with warm colors (he is colored orange, while everyone else is colored purple, green, or blue), and according to his toy bio, he is the youngest member of his quartet. Also in Cars, Mater is literally known as a runt and he's the only child that Lizzie and Stanley ever had. He's small for his size to be a tow truck because tow trucks are actually normally bigger than him. He can sometimes get in a lot of trouble and others think of him as a fool. He was probably born very little too. He also seems younger than the rest of the Radiator Springs town residents. | |

Goofy: In the short "Double Dribble" Merrithew, one of the players on Polytechnical University's basketball team, is comically short compared to the other players. He gets his chance to prove himself when all the other players on P.U.'s team get injured and ends up scoring the winning basket. | |

Little Guido Maritato of ECW Full Blooded Italians. He ranged from lazy little man who let the larger men handle all the hard work to violent little man with a Hair-Trigger Temper who jumped at any chance to fight he got. Ironically, he slid further towards the latter when the larger the number of larger men were around him. | |

A Song of Ice and Fire: Rickon Stark is the youngest of the Stark children and receives less focus than the rest. Among the Lannisters is Tyrion Lannister, who is a dwarf, and is often looked down upon by everyone, despite being the smartest of Tywin's children. Among the Baratheons, Renly is both the youngest, skinniest (though only in comparison) and the least martially able; having for brothers two men regarded as being in the running for being the best warrior (Robert, in his prime) and the best commander (Stannis) in Westeros. The fact that Renly actively prefers courtly life and politicking is a constant source of scorn and dislike from the elder brothers Baratheon. |

Animal House: Before the Delta Tau Chi members launch their mission of sabotage against Faber College's homecoming parade, there is a "tick-tock" montage (with eerie music by Elmer Bernstein) of several of the guys checking their watches to see if it's time to go. Everyone is wearing an expensive watch that marks the time as precisely eleven o'clock—except for Bluto, whose watch is really cheap-looking and broken, and is showing a blatantly wrong time to boot—because he's wearing it upside down. | |

Tiny Toon Adventures: In "Falling to Pizzas" (part of "Career Oppor-Toon-ities"), after Calamity Coyote tries unsuccessfully to steal pizza from Little Beeper, who works as a delivery bird for Bombino's, Bombino's offers free pizza slices to the next ten customers. Calamity tries to get one, but is trampled by Plucky, Hamton, Shirley, Fifi, Furrball, Dizzy, Montana, Elmyra and Gogo. When it looks like Calamity still has a chance, Sweetie runs over him as well. To add insult to injury, the above mentioned trample him again while running the other way after having received a free slice. "High Toon" had the Coyote Gang, which comprised of Wile E., a couple of Dumb Muscle coyotes, and a tiny coyote who looked like a Palette Swap of Calamity. |

Among the dev'esses of the Sarghress clan in Drowtales, you wouldn't be blamed for thinking that Sang and her son Kor'maril Niz'zre are this trope given that the other characters (including the token human) tower over them, but Kor'maril is one of the highest-ranking Sarghress and a certified badass in his own right, while Sang is described by the author as "small and mean" and an old friend of Quain'tana. Long story short, in the drow world, this trope tends to be a Pint-Sized Powerhouse if they have managed to survive that long. | |

Including a tiger, a panther, a cheetah, a lynx... and an adorable little house cat. May also be a Shout-Out to the above "Another Froggy Evening" example. This is mirrored later in the episode when Rainbow Dash tries to break into the hospital to finish reading the book. Dash runs afoul of two battleaxe nurses, an angry doctor...and an adorable little trainee filly. |

Pokémon: The Series: For human characters, Misty, whose sisters use this trope to tease her endlessly, to her annoyance. The episode Riding The Winds of Change!, a Gliscor and its group of Gligar followers had one of these. Ash ended up catching it. Paul, meanwhile, caught the leader. A flock of Pikipek includes a lazy and easily-exhausted Rowlet that always falls behind; this little owl is not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed either. Ash would wind up catching the Rowlet later in the same episode. |

The nine kids who attend the big gang meeting in The Warriors include their "tagger", Rembrandt, who is the smallest of them all and the most naive (and also the only Latino in the gang, although this is never mentioned). The video game based on the film reveals that he was the last to join (only a couple of months before the big meeting) and brings out the Big Brother Instinct in the other members. He does succeed in punching out a Mook when the gang gets cornered in a subway restroom (after blinding the guy by spraying him in the face with his paint can). | |

Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story: Bowser's ultimate attack, the Broggy Bonker, when executed perfectly, results in a gang of Blitties running by to help Broggy mob the enemy. There is of course a brief pause between the time the penultimate Blitty runs offscreen and the time the last one appears. During the Fawful Theater sequence, there is one female Goomba who always is late to her lines. |

MechQuest has cowboy-themed mechs available, one of which has a horse stampede as an available attack. Every so often, once the horse silhouettes have gone past, a little one will patter across the screen. | |

At the end of Scaredy Cat, Sylvester goes back to the house with a tree to save Porky, and sends all the mice packing. The last mouse who runs away is notably smaller than the rest. | |

In a brilliantly timed and executed visual gag in The Three Stooges' short "Calling All Curs," the boys are forced to beat a hasty retreat when the dinner bell sounds at their dog hospital and a massive clusterfuck of pooches stampedes down the hall... followed after a brief delay by one lone scrawny little pipsqueak of a mutt. | |

Seven Chances: A major action sequences has Buster Keaton running down a hill, desperately dodging an avalanche of enormous boulders. After all the boulders pass, Buster stops to catch his breath, and one last cantaloupe-sized rock knocks him off his feet. | |

Say Anything... sees Lloyd Dobler consult a group of guys about how to deal with a breakup; they give him uselessly lunkheaded, wannabe-macho advice, including the last of them, a kid who looks like he's in middle school who counsels him that all girls are bitches. | |

Babylon 5: The eponymous space station is the Runt. The previous four stations were of a larger and more elaborate design, but after Babylon Four mysteriously disappeared, there wasn't enough money to build a replacement on the same scale. So B5 ended up as a slimmed-down version of the concept. | |

Shows up as well in Pee-wee's Big Adventure (also by Tim Burton) in the scene at the shopping center, when Pee-wee, tormented by the theft of his bicycle, begins to imagine seeing bikes everywhere. Bikes of all kinds are pedaled past him, and they start getting increasingly smaller until a remote-controlled toy bike "driven" by an action figure zips past. | |

Hellsing: Technically speaking, The Major. Of all the members of Millenium (most of whom are statuesque vampires, except for the Captain, who is a werewolf and the most statuesque of all), he stands out for being short and fat, wearing thick spectacles, not wearing a military uniform, and displaying no superhuman abilities. This is in stark contrast to his status as Millenium's beloved leader, who is extremely charismatic, and quite a skilled strategist. He's also a cyborg. Well, was a cyborg. He's kinda just a robot now... | |

In The Hobbit, Bombur, the last of Thorin's dwarves, is an overweight, incompetent comic relief character who appears whenever someone has to trip and blunder. And then it happens in a cursed river that makes him fall in a slumber and the rest have to actually carry the quite girthy, all things considered, runt for hours. | |
