If I was to make my own LN and knew Japanese, it would be 100 Japanese characters without spaces. The title would be pointing out how ridiculously long LN can get.

Same here. Light Novels: light on the reading, heavy on the title! (Just kidding  )
For an isekai harem series, the title makes me think the MC is a bit of a trolling a**hole which is amusing. I'd be curious about the tone of the series based on that alone. |

it's very similar to the alrayd translated "get naked!", except the get naked mc became female for his/her third loop; first loop had him struggle to save the world, second loop is the typical light/webnovel OP mc who can save the world easily, and third loop, well it's pretty crazy as it even has some feminist themes (you are not allowed to become a hero because you are female and hero is a man's job), still got eh mao/princess/himekishi harem, tho. |

I never heard of this series? What's the whole title? (& is it a paragraph long?) |

What Came to Mind During My Third Time in Another World Was to for Now, Get Naked (info, mangaupdates) If you want to read it, you'll find it on novelupdates if you google the full title. I won't provide a direct link on these forums as it's a fan translation. |

truth be told by this point in time the whole title thing is nothing more then the editors and author trolling.
that and a way to avoid copyright infringement |

So someone liked the idea of the hero returning to the starting point after every bad end, but decided the third time around, the hero should have a sex change...that's...a combination of Re:Zero and Tanya? |

Has anyone ever made a random long light-novel title generator? They have such a similar structure to their titles that it can't be beyond someone's capacity, considering there's a Deepak Chopra random wisdom generator.
"I Can't Believe My Girlfriend Is My Teacher While Vacationing in America, and Now I Can't Use the Restroom Properly"
Of course they have it on purpose. It comes across to me as a running joke of sorts.
More like "Maybe If I Keep Making These Titles Longer People Will Think I'm Funny and Pay Attention to These Books While They're in a Bookstore." |

Well, if they've managed to get into articles like this, I'd think they've served their purpose quite well... /meta |
