From what I can gather from the page and its [[Laconic/ClimaxBoss laconic definition]], a ClimaxBoss doesn't have to be super-central to the plot; they just have to be fought after a major revelation in the plot, in which case, Roman could qualify (being Ruby's opponent after Cinder enacts her plan). Regardless of the creators' initial intentions about whether Roman should have lasted this long, his actions still influenced the story significantly, and he was a prominent antagonist for a good while.

The description also says that they're generally fought around two-thirds into the story. However, this isn't stated to be a solid rule, and there's no way to know how long RWBY will even last. There's also no statement that there can't be more than one Climax Boss, just that it has to come at a climactic point in the plot.

But what's more, the definition for AnticlimaxBoss doesn't even seem to mandate a ClimaxBoss. It does mention it, but it also allows for a FinalBoss. The actual specification on the main page is

But what\'s more, the definition for AnticlimaxBoss doesn\'t even seem to mandate a ClimaxBoss. It does mention it, but it also allows for a FinalBoss. The actual specification on the main page is \"there was a lot of buildup, and what was expected to be a tense, critical, epic battle ended up being a breeze.\" The laconic definition is simply \"A boss that ends up much easier than expected, despite anything the plot may imply.\" Which, of course, could include Roman and Adam.

So what gives? I think either Roman and Adam should qualify, or those pages should be modified to be more precise.
