And the last chapter is really good considering how it recontextualizes the entire game and his motivation to find the treasure.

The goal is to unburden him, I think.

This game is like an exil for Majima, where he learns to love life and feel truly free of his sins, given that he feels trapped for most of his life. The game definitely has its problems, but I think it adds to his character.

I don't really believe for a second that he hasn't killed anyone, especially with the reputation he's built for himself after 0 and especially by showing himself to be violent and unstable under Shimano's orders.

In their flashback, he seemed pretty confident about doing it with Saejima, and he offered to do it in his place to protect him. I think he really means it when he said that.

I think it has more to do with Makoto, as she is blind and can't defend herself. If Lee was really the target, Majima would have killed him.

it's funny because I see a lot of fans who say the opposite and who say that he is very underdeveloped in this game
