** Literature/TheFourGospels has two in the form of King Herod and {{Satan}} himself. King Herod is the ruler of Judea upon Jesus's birth and attempts to kill the latter believing he is a threat to his rule. Jesus and his family escape and hide in Egypt long enough for Herod to grow old and die. {{Satan}} on the other hand being the overall BigBad of the Bible takes an active role in tempting Jesus in the wilderness--of course, this is the ''Son of God'' he is dealing with, and ultimately leaves him alone after Jesus demands him he does so. The rest of the gospels has the Pharisees and teachers of religious law being Jesus's most prominent and active antagonists.

* ''Film/TheCrow'': T-Bird looks like the BigBad, since he's the gang leader who kills Eric and Shelley, but he's revealed to be working for a crime boss named Top Dollar halfway through the film.

** As powerful as he ends up being (to the point of requiring a HeroicSacrifice on Goku's part for his defeat) Raditz is only the ''first'' major threat, as even he reveals to Piccolo shortly before his death. Indeed, the most dangerous opponent in the Saiyan StoryArc comes later in Vegeta.

* Megatron in ''WesternAnimation/TransformersTheMovie''. Though the audience is made aware of Unicron's existence in the prologue, no one was expecting Ol' Buckethead to ''almost'' kick the bucket less than halfway through the film. In-universe, the trope is played straight since none of the characters even knew about Unicron at that point.
