** Nale even lampshades it earlier. He ''did'' gloat out all his plan. Only he did it securely alone, to the mirror, in order to get the urge out of his system.

* While the manga and anime adaption of ''ChronoCrusade'' [[AdaptationDecay disagree on quite a few things]], there's one thing on which they agree: [[BigBad Aion]] ''loves'' to gloat.

* Grings Kodai, the BigBad from ''PokemonZoroarkMasterOfIllusions'', is shown to have a massive ego, so it's only natural that once he thinks he's won by [[spoiler: absorbing the Time Ripple]], he proceeds to give a [[NothingCanStopUsNow Nothing Can Stop Me Now]] speech, believing he's won and there's nothing Ash can do to stop him now. [[spoiler: [[OhCrap Then time starts reversing and he discovers that not only was the Time Ripple he just absorbed an illusion created by Zoroark but that Karl, a reporter traveling with Ash's group, has caught his entire EvilGloating session on tape]]. Cue start of HumiliationConga ending with that same footage airing on the TV network that ''HE owned''.]]

Boondocks character Colnel H Stinkmeaner is quite possibly the king of this trope. Every single word he says is evil gloating. At one point he even dies goes to hell and basicaly gloats that he is more evil than the Satan to which Satan readily admits

[[VictoryGloating Heroes tend to not gloat]], which is why villains facing a SwordOverHead will usually either be [[SaveTheVillain allowed to live]] or killed without [[BondOneLiner (much)]] [[KirkSummation fanfare]].

** Finally inverted with ''Harry himself'' monologuing Voldemort at the very end. Of course Harry is in the lucky position of finally holding all the cards - to the point where it ''doesn't even matter'' that he tells Voldemort exactly how his shiny new weapon works.

* At the end of ReBoot Megabyte gives a short speech to the entire city after taking over again. He even lampshades the expectation of evil speeches from the BigBad.
--->Attention. As you are no doubt aware, the Principle Office is now under my complete control. [[LampshadeHanging You're probably looking forward to one of my erudite speeches about me, Megaframe, the new viral dawn, et cetera et cetera.]] But I'm afraid I'm going to have to disappoint you. There is no grand scheme here. This is about revenge. Viruses are predatory by design, and it is time for me to follow my function. Prepare yourselves... for the hunt!
