00:02:498 (1,2,1,2,1,2,1) - 00:05:712 (1,2,1,2,1,2,1) - 00:08:926 (1,2,1,2,1,2,1) - Why putting sliders here ? The song isn't changing
sliderends are on very quiet xylophone sounds, its pretty much inaudible with hitsounds, so i mapped passive beats
00:03:569 (2) - feels too heavily spaced from 00:03:301 (1). also makes the jump to 00:03:837 (1) feel a little too large. might wanna bring this one in a little closer
00:02:498 (1,2,1,2,1,2,1) - is an "accelerating"/"increasing spacing" concept, in contrast to 00:05:712 (1,2,1,2,1,2,1) - which is basically the same, but on a way calmer meassure in the song
00:11:337 (1,2,1) - this would feel really nice if there was more spacing between 00:11:337 (1,2) - like this https://i.imgur.com/GFjituG.png , rn feels a bit underwhelming
00:11:873 (1) - i think you can lower the sv for this slider here, it just seems way to fast considering the sound. 0.2x is a nice speed but you'll have to adjust your slider shape for if you change it. plus having this be really slow gives the next section more of a punch!
i think a low slidervelocity would indicate some very harsh but "slow sound", which isnt present in the song at all. Its just the same intensity as the previous section, and for the sake of the slider having roughly the same space usage as regular distance-snap (i treated the curves as straight lines for this) i think that 0.65 is fine here.
00:23:524 (2,4) - (4) appears a little too visually close with (3) compared to the rest of the sliders in this segment
00:23:792 (3,4) - nitpick but (3) is almost inline with (4). should be clearly or clearly not inline
00:29:015 (1,2,1) - stacking here is nice but (2) feels too far away from both other objects
00:31:158 (3,4) - you can adjust the rhythm here to be more like this: https://i.imgur.com/Z76fAD4.png . there's a really noticeable strum on the guitar at 00:31:560 - that currently doesn't get any feedback since it's on a sliderend
00:35:712 (3) - you could change this too for consistency but imo it's better to leave this as it is rn
00:29:283 (2) - is a seperated vocal sound with not a lot going on in the bg, i agree with 00:32:498 (3) - 00:35:712 (3) - same as 00:29:283 (2) -
i agree with Juixe here. first things first, the slider at 00:32:498 (3) - is following the guitar, yet it's more spaced out than the 2 piano notes at 00:31:962 (1,2) - which are clearly more important. you can just move the slider to somewhere like this: https://i.imgur.com/cy7R3RN.png and it'll give the 2 circles before it more emphasis while also making the next jump a little more comfortable
00:32:765 (1) - i know you're mapping the piano but for consistency's sake, change it to like what you did on 00:26:337 (1,2,3) - with the vocals.
the sections before the kiai are meant to give a seperation between the high density of 00:50:310 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,5,6) - and 02:01:024 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,5,6) - , while not adding to the overall density in these areas. I believe this concept in itself isnt a problem, but if there are any suggestions on what would still serve the seperation-concept, i'd be willing to change
00:59:283 (1,2,3,1) - Here, the sliders are separated by 2 ticks but here 01:05:712 (1,2,3) - by only one, one the same part. You can simply make them the same
i am not exactly sure what you mean by 2 ticks, i assume you mean the empty blueline.
Begin of kiai has simpler pattern to not immediately overwhelm, repeated 2 times. 01:05:712 (1,2,3) - has different vocal intonation and hold-tone, so i decided to put 3/4 sliders here to emphasize the held-vocal
01:05:712 (1,2,3) - you can do something like this here to keep the momentum and difficulty https://i.imgur.com/cm63J64.jpg also imo looks a bit nicer and previous pattern felt kind of uncomfortable to play
01:05:712 (1,2,3) - i think change these sliders to 2/4 will be better, this part is the only 3/4 of this vocal
or you can change these: 01:02:498 (1,2,3) - 00:59:283 (1,2,3) - 01:08:926 (1,2,3) - 01:12:140 (1,2,3) - ......
to 3/4
you are right. but i dont see it as a problem for playability to have this be in - just a small thing thats a little flair.
01:16:828 (1,2,3,4,5) - you're correct in doing this pattern by slowing down then accelerating to transition to the next section but 02:27:676 (1,2,3) - is not like that, despite being a similar part
really nit picky but 01:23:926 (5) - plays and looks better moved a little bit to the right
01:24:194 (1,2) - this is a unique pattern without any sound for that, i would suggest you to delete the circle and make a slider as a reverse as you made it almost everywhere for consistency
first one fixed, was a little extreme
The second one, i am keep as is. the sliderspeed and intensity is intentional here, the song is still "holding" some of the energy from kiai
01:49:908 (1) - Why does it ends on the blue tic ? There is no sound here and by doing that, you are missing an important sound on 01:50:176 - . Make it longer by one tic
02:00:221 (4,5,1,2,1,2) - Maybe Increase the spacing here, since the pitch of the vocals is getting bigger. Like a crescendo in the spacing (sry bad english to explain it xd)
02:02:631 (6,1) - really large spacing here, this is practically a cross-screen jump and it's not even part of the kiai :c
02:15:355 (3,1) - plays well so I think you should do the same to 01:04:640 (4,1) - as well as they are similar, if not the same.
02:26:069 (1,2,3) - 00:59:283 (1,2,3) - 03:01:426 (1,1,1,1) - 00:59:283 (1,2,3,1) - you nc these pattern's(and other like that that I didn't point here) really randomly I can't see reasoning behind it, you should do it consistently between all 3 choruses
02:46:962 (1,2,3,4,5,1) - should probably have the rhythm like this: https://i.imgur.com/PemuUSb.png instead. there isn't any sound on the red tick at 02:47:096 - so having a circle there doesn't make sense, while there is sound on 02:47:631 - so having it land on a sliderend is a little awkward
03:03:837 (1,2,1,2) - As far as I can tell, you've never used stacks like these in the other kiai sections. So you should space them out since you have not used a pattern like this
03:05:846 (1,2,3) - I hear nothing in the song that can make a triple right there. If you really want to map inexistant sounds, put a loud hitsound on it, then it feels gooder (?) to play
03:31:828 (1,2,1,2) - i feel like these sliders should be decreasing in spacing along with the pitch in the piano. you could also do some cool sv variation as well, making it slower as the piano goes down etc.
03:35:042 (1,2,1,2) - these sliders have the same spacing as some of the ones in the kiai. this is at the end of the map during a really calm section, so i think this is just pushing it a little TOO much lol
03:37:587 (1) - would be nice to have this spaced more than others, would give a nicer feel and emphasis to it
03:35:980 (1,1,2,1,2,1,1,1) - is a gradually decreasing spacing, independant of sv. i want the strongest sound in the calmest section (and the end, really) to be the most relaxed to play.
