What Came to Mind During My Third Time in Another World Was to for Now, Get Naked.

After being tossed into another world, Ononogi Kazuto splendidly defeated the Demon King as the Hero. However, there was no sign of being able to return to his old world at all. The moment that he touched a gem that appeared on the Demon King’s throne, Kazuto was sent back to the first town, 《Azerleims》. From here began the tale of this second time(NG+). He saved the imperial princess that he was unable to save in the first iteration, had a wedding with her, and after defeating the Demon King, lived happily ever after. Or at least that’s how it should have been. The True Demon King suddenly appeared. Although it was a tough battle together with his companions, Kazuto eventually defeated it. And from the mouth of the True Demon King appeared a gem. Although he had a bad feeling about it, Kazuto reached his hand out towards it, and when he did, Kazuto was sent once again to the starting town, 《Azerleims》. As you’d expect, by now Kazuto wasn’t really surprised, but the figure reflected in the mirror was female. Bewilderment. But at that point, Kazuto took one action. “… Mn. For now, let’s get naked.”

## My Thoughts on What Came to Mind During My Third Time in Another World Was to for Now, Get Naked. This title definitely grabbed my attention, and the premise is pretty wild: a guy reincarnated *three* times, this time as a girl, in another world. The story follows their antics as they try to live a new life, no longer burdened with being the hero. It’s a mix of adventure, comedy, and a healthy dose of ecchi, with some shoujo ai elements thrown in. So, did it live up to its intriguing concept? Let's dive in. ### First Impressions Initially, I was hooked by the gender-bending twist and the promise of an overpowered protagonist navigating a world where they're no longer destined for greatness. The "strong from the start" element can be fun, and the idea of a former hero just trying to chill is appealing. But, I quickly found the story to be a bit of a mixed bag. ### What Works Well The comedy definitely shines through. The main character's impulsive nature and the interactions with the cast create some genuinely funny moments. The characters themselves are fairly distinct, which keeps things interesting. I particularly enjoyed the relationships the MC develops, especially the connection with the princess, which seems to be a fan favorite. The novel is undeniably light and carefree, making it a decent choice if you're looking for something easy to pick up and enjoy. ### Areas of Concern While the story has its moments, I couldn't help but notice some significant flaws. The world-building feels rather weak. Motivations can be murky, and plot points sometimes feel forced or dropped abruptly. The power scaling also seems inconsistent. The MC is supposedly ridiculously strong, but often struggles in ways that don't quite add up. I also found myself getting annoyed with the companions, who often come across as ungrateful despite the MC's efforts. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Some readers have pointed out issues with the overarching plot, specifically the reason for the reincarnations and gender swap. Apparently, the explanation is somewhat convoluted and not entirely satisfying, involving alchemists and time lords. This may detract from the overall experience if you're looking for a tightly woven narrative. ### Final Verdict "What Came to Mind During My Third Time in Another World Was to for Now, Get Naked." is a flawed but ultimately enjoyable read. If you're a fan of gender bender stories, overpowered protagonists, and don't mind a bit of a nonsensical plot, you might find this to be a fun distraction. However, be prepared for some inconsistencies and a potentially frustrating cast of supporting characters. Overall, I'd give it a solid 3/5. It's not a masterpiece, but it offers enough laughs and entertainment to be worth a look.
