Thanks again, sis! I'm always happy to see others appreciate his existence. Majima lives rent free in my head so he's been occupying almost everything I've been creating nowadays. Besides the forbidden love and all, Majima really does fits with everything I ever wanted in a character. I'm really grateful he's my biggest inspiration to finally become better at understanding Japanese.
But yeah, when I played 蝶の毒 華の鎖 a second time around with the English translation myself, I could see why people would favor a character like Shiba over Majima. Shiba's route really does start the game strong - it's one of the first ones you can read after all. Though, I do think genuinely liking Majima is more or less a thing that happens over time with people who did finish the game from the beginning to the end. IMO he doesn't exactly give a good first impression. For me, I started with the R18 version and only gradually become smitten with Majima myself as well.
I also agree with you about the FD, Majima's menhera monologues in his POV are just way too juicy. The FD is 100% Majima's game and I do feel like the EOP audience are totally missing out since they only get to see it in one ending briefly.
I'm just too clumsy with my hands so I get nervous when it involves something as meticulous and precise like sewing but you're right about making that first step. With so many tutorials out there, it'll be a great thing to have as a hobby.
Sending designs in for a keychain is a really good idea btw. Those keychains you posted are also really cute! Mind showing a link to where to buy them?

I'm so glad you're giving Muramasa a shot! Hope you're enjoying it so far. It's great to see /blog/sisters trying out non-BL/otome titles as of late. There are a lot of great guys outside the genre for sure.
And yeah, I know the feeling too well. I felt the same way when I finished up Muramasa two years ago. It's a very long read but absolutely worth it for Kageaki. IMO he gets better and better as you go through it. There is nothing quite like him at all. Such a fun character.
Majima is also another one who left me a very lasting impression. As someone who loves both him and Kageaki, they have different appeals but it's still like "wow, there's something extra special about him" that I can't describe well. Making a gif of Majima's expressions would be unbelievably based btw. Best boys also have the best expressions.
