But it's specifically about information given to the audience. Your suggestions make it sound like a character discovery is emphasized.

Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayAlright, I made a single proposition rename crowner here
.
This title has brought 4 people to the wiki from non-search engine links since 20th FEB '09.
That being said, I think the current name is not that bad, but I do not think it fits that well either.
"irhgT nm0w tehre might b ea lotof th1nmgs i dont udarstannd, ubt oim ujst goinjg to keepfollowing this pazth i belieove iN !!!!!1 dIf nothing else, One Second Late would be a better name.
Writing a post-post apocalypse LitRPG on RR. Also fanfic stuff.The phrase Too Little Too Late comes to mind, although it may not be strictly related.
An Ear Worm is like a Rickroll: It is never going to give you up.I don't like One Second Late, because that sounds like a character breaking in right after their lover has been shot.
Reality is that, which when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. -Philip K. DickThere is now an alternative titles crowner here

Feel free to add names as you wish.
"irhgT nm0w tehre might b ea lotof th1nmgs i dont udarstannd, ubt oim ujst goinjg to keepfollowing this pazth i belieove iN !!!!!1 dFive-Second Foreshadowing is my favorite so far, but the "five second" part still doesn't seem very descriptive. How about Last Second Foreshadowing?
Speaking words of fandom: let it squee, let it squee.Interesting point. Perhaps Sequel Hook should be considered a related trope in any case? There are noticeable points of similarity. Maybe a second cousin? :)
"A similar surprise reveal, appearing at the end of a work and not followed by a revelation, may well be a Sequel Hook."

Crown Description:
Vote up for yes, down for no.

I can get what this Trope is about from reading the description, and I can see how the name fits in with that, but the title by itself is just kind of puzzling. In a nutshell, it is when a character (and the audience) discover or realize something just too late to do anything about it. I think a better name is in order.
Best I can think of right off the top of my head is "Discovered Too Late" or "Realized Too Late" or something like that.
Thoughts?
