• - Rhythm placement needs improvement >_<. Don't really see a problem with the rhythm, I generally map my Normal to the rhythm (instrument/vocal) and try to keep notes every 2 and 4th white ticks for claps. For this song, the rhythm is quite focused on red ticks so drum and rhythm doesn't always mix well so this is why I sometime I ignore putting notes on the 2nd and 4th white ticks.

00:03:079 (3) - Kinda weird shape: http://puu.sh/dGFv Made it nicer
00:05:197 (3) - ^: http://puu.sh/dGFE ^
00:06:079 (1,2) - I can't tell it's good. (1) is like off-beat. (2) follow the background, but ignored one beat at 00:06:961. :\ Random rhythm? It's following vocal, I ignore that one beat and I felt there was too many 1/2 rhythm here and that is not nice for a Normal, but since lot of people dislike this, adjust the notes in this section to white ticks. It plays horrible, leaving 1/1 space before the repeating slider feel a lot better and more consistent with my mapping style as I generally follow vocal.
00:12:785 (1) - Two overlapped circles is better than which you're using, just an opinion: http://puu.sh/dGGj 1/2 rhythm then 1/1 stacked note (keep in mind you can't read spacing when notes are stack, thus making them hard to hit) and that both notes are not of equal accent (red tick is not as accented as white) so I just did a slider. Also fits better with instrument (I don't mean drums).
00:14:726 (5) - +1/2 beats to this slider Again to avoid using too many 1/2 rhythm and this is consistent with how I map since I placed the notes in this section on the red ticks (I'm not following drums here).
00:21:609 (1) - Make it balance with previous slider: http://puu.sh/dGGP Stupid mistake, fixed.
00:24:609 (2) - Copy (1) and Flip it horizontally, then Ctrl+R, though I think you can fix the shape of (1) too: http://puu.sh/dGHf Done, not sure what you mean by fixing up the shape, I intentionally make it like this.
00:28:315 (2) - How about stack it under (1), it's tricky to players with this spacing. I don't see a problem, you can easily see (1), I doubt anyone is going to miss it and hit (2) first. And the notes fade out fast enough and the fact that (3) is a slider, I doubt anyone is going to miss (3) either. I also hate stacking in easier diffs in general as for the reasons mentioned before (can't read spacing due to stack, approach rate is so slow that I keep hitting 1/1 stack too early and etc.)
00:33:962 (3) - It's not a roller-coaster T_T Just want to emphasize the middle of this slider, not whole.
00:43:314 (x) - Add a note here Following vocal here
00:44:726 (x) - ^ ^ I understand following vocal is not always a good thing, but star rating is so high I had to try reducing it somewhere and I did slider, it should be easy enough.
00:53:550 (3) - Can you Ctrl+R this? (Also fix the spacing after changes too!) I want (2) & (3) to point to each other (toward the middle), the feel of the song sort of feel like everything is leading to one point to me.
01:17:550 (3) - Move like this: http://puu.sh/dGIJ Ok as it's consistent with 00:30:256 (2)
01:27:609 (2) - ^: http://puu.sh/dGIM Don't agree with this one No, I want to do something like at 00:13:315 (2,3) here.

Maybe we have a different mapping style for Normal, I try to avoid 1/2 rhythms when possible and almost always do a slider if I'm force to do it and I dislike stacks.

  - Nice hitsounds, the best hitsound using on this mapset thx

00:05:197 (3) - I wonder how many ppl will get 100 on this note. no one since its just simple white tick note and u can easily read approach circle, but nvm i decided to change this part wwww
00:12:432 (1,2) - umm, I suggest (1) follow the same spacing with previous note, but jumps on (2) and (3): http://puu.sh/dGJD (1.30x), or this: http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/222037 nah, i want to keep it without changes
00:16:138 (2) - Move it to x:124 y:180: http://puu.sh/dGKd i want to keep them symetrick
00:21:609 (1,2,3) - How about this: http://puu.sh/dGKF good idea
00:26:726 (2) - Use normal hitsound set yep, forgot wwww

00:40:844 (4) - This will be better imo: http://puu.sh/dGLm both fine for me
00:51:079 (1,2,1,2) - Spacing cheat changed this part
00:58:138 (1) - 3~4 grid left, spacing is strange between 00:58:138 (1,2,3,4) 0.4 difference....
01:05:197 (4,1,1,1) - eh...just an opinion, why don't use pattern like this: http://puu.sh/dGLS (though they look like tentacles..rofl). Kinda weird for 4 different length sliders and placed with a cross pattern. i like tentacles, changed, but they still look loke tentacles even on ur screenshot
01:12:432 (1,2,3,4,5) - Do something like this: http://puu.sh/dGMm / http://puu.sh/dGNy
01:13:844 (1,2,3,4) - ^ both changed little bit
00:21:873 (T) - Unused timing section
01:17:903 (T) - ^ deleted ></
Very good mod = =+ thx~

01:08:197 (4) - why not try to add a reverse and move 01:08:726 (5) - closer , this will fit the vocal better Don't think it play too nice since it's a 1/2 rhythm and there is already one before (01:07:667 (3,4)) and by leaving a space, it emphasize 01:08:726 (5) much better which is a strong beat.

merchat normal should rename it "hard" it doesnt seem to be a normal...obviously.. Should be fine, if i make it easier, the difficulty jump to Hard may be too big.
00:03:079 (3) - maybe dont start at here? the previous beat followed vocal, but now suddenly...well, start at red tick would sounds better..? The note on the white tick is really emphasize/accented etc., it would be weird if I were to follow vocal which is not as emphasize as the sound on the white here
00:07:315 (1) - stack? Doesn't feel like it should be stack to me, nicer to play when it's spaced out since it's easier to see the approach circle.
00:09:079 (3) - make it like previous slider?(simple curve) would be prettier..? Listen to sound at 00:10:138 & 00:10:314, I want to try to emphasize it with the red point, but change shape since I notice the red tick isin't as accented as the white.
00:28:315 (2) - stack? Same reason as before.

Comboing . . . Please recheck difficulty with rules in beginning my post. Sorry, I don't follow those rule for new comboing, I just put new combo on how it feel to me (normally follow vocal).

00:06:079 (1) - Ugly. May be linear slider? I make slider shape to follow the feel of the music, here the music feel quite wiggly for me thus a wiggly shape.
00:09:962 (1) - ^ May be such is better? ^ No for same reason
00:11:373 (3) - red slider mount right one cell (Grid lvl2. ) I changed the shape of this slider in a earlier mod.
00:14:726 (4) - eeehhh Same with this one, but it was basically a copy of the one above but rotate by 90 degree.
00:15:609 (1) - end slider mount mount right one cell (Grid lvl2. ) Don't see anything wrong, I want it to be perfectly straight.
00:44:903 (3) - May be linear? Intentionally use red point to slow this slider down to represent the song speed up at 00:45:961 (4).
01:00:962 (1) - so ugly. May be such is better? Don't see a difference, but made more symmetrical.

I made my slider to try to follow the feel of the music since practically all long slider I use are omitting some strong sound in the music so to try to make it feel like you're still following the song, I use some red point to emphasize certain part. For this song especially, I feel using just curved and waved slider doesn't fit too well. This is why I didn't change much from your mod.

Hi, from my queue

nice map, star~ go go rank it Thank you for star!

[General]

1. I don't think you can make this a good map if you haven't even watched this anime, then you have no love to it, you must watch it at least 10 times so you can make something special to it ok I lied I watched it, ep3 was terrible though

[Easy]

1. 01:05:197 (1,3) - add whistle Added.

[Insane]

1. 00:27:962 (2) - 复制 (1) 然后转90度

3. 00:54:962 (1) - 这一段和背景颜色相差太小, 换成紫色的

perfect map, can't find many problems Insane unchanged.

that's all

Good luck~ Thank you for modding!

Hi. Hello Faust.

Seems the hitsounds work really well with the song.
You've gathered a modest amount of modding here, and it does look like there isn't a whole lot to point out.
I like what has been done thus far and I do think it's enough to get some BAT attention.

Also, did I mention your BG is 1024x576 ? Just wondering.. I don't have to change this, right?

Overall, it's just some minor touching-up. Why the inherited timing sections are unsnapped by 1ms I have no idea. Fixed.

Easy:

Tick-rate 2 & OD+1 would do good. Tick-rate 2 looks a little ugly imo, but done.

- 01:26:461 (1) - You can't start this spinner so soon, really. Move this to - 01:26:726 - and we're good. Fixed.

Insane:

Couple of unsnapped inherited timing sections. Same as above.
The last kiai inherited point is snapped correctly, so make sure you do the snapping for the beginning and in-betweens.

- 00:24:079 (1) - No hit-finish? Oops, added.

That's it. Kudosu or no kudosu, it's okay.

Call me back when you're done.

All snappings should be now fixed. I will inform you when response for the normal difficulty arrives.

01:14:020 (1,2,3,4,5) - I don't think this finish is necessary Maybe not too necessary, but I still like it so unchanged.

I really can't find something wrong.... Ask Faust-chan if you want to bubble Thanks for modding!

Not a fan of this difficulty.

- 00:05:197 (3) - Why not do this: Hm, you want me to make this a slight jump? Didn't see a difference with slider shape. If you wanted me to do a jump, then no considering you didn't suggest for other places and i kept to one distant snap for the whole diff and feel weird to have a jump just for one place.

- 00:15:608 (1) - Was this intended to be straight? Yep

- 01:22:314 (1,2,3) - Rather you change the way this looks. Hm, made some changes.

- 01:27:608 (2) - Here's a fix: I don't really want a gap between the sliders here, but I notice the blanket wasn't perfect so made it a little better.

This feels like you have the same problem I do when making Normals. You try to map to way too much and it makes the map way too hard. See if you can simplify some of the rhythms, perhaps. Don't see anything that I could simplify without breaking the consistency of the map, if I did, would have been fixed a long while ago.
00:02:020 (1) - Way too soon after a spinner for a Normal. Fixed
00:24:079 (1,2) - Kinda ugly overlap Doesn't look too bad for me.
00:28:315 (2,3) - Really don't like the look of slight misalignment here Fixed (2), was intended to be straight, didn't notice anything wrong with (3).

Guess this song really doesn't fit with how I map normals and also since I tried to keep some parts on the white tick for claps so I end up doing unnecessary 1/2 rhythms. May have been better to just map without consideration for clap and do freestyle for the hitsounds. If I ever encounter song like this again, I'll try a different method of mapping, but for me, this diff seems fine.
