It's not Japanese fantasy without it.

...there's still time before the femeale final fight though. It could happen. by no means does a god need to be a final boss to die in a story.... heck I recall fondly a sci-fi flick(book) where in the end the MC decided not to really stir things up with the local deities(as an essentially immortal character due to reasons), and the last chapter or so is his buddy(who had a few factors more aptitude for combat) pretty much waltz into the local "gods" temples and run amok like Mike Meyers or Jason in a summer camp just slaughtering them... and that was the epilogue.

PS: and before you ask no, I cannot recall the name of the book... it was amazing once it got going but it was a long start and aside from the buddy I can't say the characters were all that memorable...
