Reminds me of Godhand. It had a stage which included an incredible duel with your rival, perhaps the second hardest in the game, topped only by another duel with your rival.

Then the final boss of the stage is a slow clunky robot with telegraphed attacks. Everyone even comments that the final boss of the stage was an useless guy.

Of course the really difficult fight you mentioned might be the second duel with the rival.

All of the dead space games have a similar thing except instead of an inflated healthbar it's just scripted moments when you can actually damage the boss.

Okay? Who the fuck cares?

For starters Rando gets his ass kicked by Brad, then Brad slowly dies of bloodloss after killing 20-30 people at the same time. So technically Rando didn't kill him.

Secondly, even if Rando did kill him, he's the only boss that does this making final bosses becoming the protagonist not being a common idea. Since ya' know, it's a fucking dumb idea. It only worked for Rando because Lisa was an artsy series.

It was thing in way of the Samurai too. The only difference between getting the worst and best ending in game was whether or not you accept joining the biggest baddest dude. The worst ending also gave you the smallest amount of points, even though it required just as much work as the best , save the last boss battle.

It's the crux of shooters that they generally have highly lethal combat where the player's ability to quickly dispatch enemies without taking damage them self is the main test of skill.

Once you introduce a boss, you remove the ability to quickly kill while still being able to quickly die yourself.

I'd argue that Serious Sam type games do it fairly well since it's no longer about quickly killing, but avoiding non-hitscan projectiles while returning your own.

I actually killed her at the end and thought that was what you were supposed to do, and it was meant to be like a tragic ending. I only later found out what you were intended to do.

It was a cool experience the first time you see it and it's very flashy.
But the second time it's really tedious and you realize it's basically a cutscene that doesn't depend on your inputs at all.

I like to think of that last battle scene to basically be the boss fight

And although lacking in imagination, I also like to think that angrily beating the everloving shit out of Nemeroth captures the essence of the game: "I have a big fucking boot, I'm pissed off and I'm coming to knock down your door, rip your wife and kids apart with my bare hands and then I'm going to pick up a chair, maim you with it, skull-fuck your quivering body and then kill your neighbors. You know, just to be sure"

The only part of that fits Chrono Trigger would be facing the final boss early. You can actually spoil yourself if you fight him early and see him imitate future bosses that you haven't fought yet.
