Sorry kanpakyin, I didn't know arken would bubble it today. -w-"
I have there some things you must change...
[Kantan]
- This is not a Kantan level, it's way above it. It's allready an easy Muzukashii.
I will show you why this is so
00:03:027 (3,4,5) - This pattern is allready considered as hard in a Kantan. The normal case is to use in a 1/1 the same notes. That means to use here o o o
00:01:576 (1,2) - Same as above
^ abviously I mean the other 1/1 as well.
00:16:575 (24,25,26) - 1/2 should be not used in Kantan and if so, just in really rare cases. You can use that in Futsuu
00:25:527 (39,40) - ^
00:36:414 (4,5,6,7,8) - This confuses beginners way too much. Inconsistence in spaces make them miss.
00:57:463 (55,56) - big notes shouldn't be use like that. It's better to have way more space between them and normal notes.
00:58:188 (57,58,59,60,61,62) - Futsuu/Muzukashii pattern
01:27:221 (119,120,121,122) - ^
A Kantan diff. has mostly monton 1/1 notes with less kat variation, while kiai has just some 1/2 notes. But here you have used allready muzukashii level patterns which a beginner can't deal with. Also there are too many finisher in the Kantan.
[Futsuu]
- Same problem here. Too hard for a Futsuu. That's a demanding muzukashii level.
00:27:100 (30) - 3/4 note shouldn't be used in a Futsuu.
00:36:777 (58) - ^
^ and so on
00:49:963 (99) - maybe D would fit more, because k k k k K plays a bit werid. You could use this D more times.
00:57:705 (122) - ^
A Futsuu has some more 1/1 and can have more 1/2 of course, but not in a too different pattern constalation, which isn't the case here.
[Muzukashii]
00:01:334 (5,6,7) - This pattern is considered as hard. Just saying.
00:56:737 (81,82,83,84,85,86,87) - Oh god, this is Oni level I think? Better if you make it easier.
01:04:963 (112,113,114,115,116) - five-plets are fine as long as you don't use them to often or have another note at the end.
01:12:946 (142,143,144) - I think d k is better here: 1. because of vocal and 2. because of the difficulty here
01:19:721 (167,168,169,170,171,172,173,174,175,176) - Two five-plets streams? Maybe braking here one would be not bad 01:20:809 (175) - for the sake of difficulty.
Well, there are some Oni patterns but overall it fit's to a hard Muzukashii. The BPM is slow but you need to consider how many notes you have used here. Not less notes we have there.
[Oni]
{
01:10:043 (22) - k
01:10:527 (24,25,26) - kdk
} I think this would sound better, what do you think?
Well, overall the taiko diffs are really nice and have together a decent spread to be honest.
but most problem is here really how you named them. I told you the reasons before why it can't be called Kantan or Futsuu, honestly there are way too much notes for this level. A beginner will be not able to play this kantan(especially those who have no experience in rythem games)
Before this gets unranked because some other guys are protesting or so, I would strongly suggest you to change the diff names into following way:
Kantan -> Futsuu
Futsuu -> Muzukashii
Muzukashii -> Oni (then you don't need to make the pattern easier I told you before)
Oni -> Ura Oni/Inner Oni
I will watch through it later again~
Good job with the maps~!
