[Insane]

00:15:640 (1,2,3) - really ugly formation of these sliders. I expect it to atleast represent the trend following the rest of the beatmap. Tried to make them better. Changed the position and tried to form a proper oval.
00:33:656 (3) - check spacing At this point a 0.06 spacing change doesn't matter
00:37:069 (1) - remove NC New combos are fine here, it's as consistent as it can get (not perfect ofc)
00:37:466 (1) - NC Same thing
00:41:593 (2,3) - spacing change to increase difficulty here isn't really needed imo Eh it's not that hard plays just like the previous bit
00:42:545 (2) - fix this slider node Fixed the previous one as well
00:42:545 (2,3) - have the spacing here match 00:43:498 (2,3) - Doesn't change much, plus it lines up nicely as is
00:45:323 (2,3) - increase spacing. Anti-jump kills flow This is true. Increased spacing and angled the slider to catch more. Decreased the spacing on the 4 as well
00:45:879 (4) - add finish Doesn't fit, slider has whistle applied and no finish sound is hinted at in the music (not even at the end)
00:55:561 (3,1) - is 0,69x, 00:55:799 (2,3) - suddenly 0,62x and then back to 0,69x at 00:56:275 (4,5) - Movement speed differences. First one is farther than the other one, so it goes from a faster spacing to a smaller spacing. Then again the bigger spacing, so bigger space. For the last part the player is moving sharply up, and I don't want them to have to move sideways too quickly (the flow intentionally sucks). Therefore, lesser spacing.
01:05:164 (1,4) - I think you should avoid as many stacks of 4 as possible. Make 4 a slider ending where 5 is? Those are fun as hell I like them a lot, also with less sliders makes it easier to read. Sure it's HARD but it's supposed to be.
02:01:355 (1) - add clap There is one here. One on the end wouldn't fit with the previous
02:10:561 (6,7,8,9,1) -
and 02:10:085 (2,3,4,4,5,6,7,1) - appears as overmap. I don't catch where the streams come in here, though I can play it decently thanks to eh (I don't really need music to play ) Nahh dude the music has more sounds there. It picks up the pace
02:14:450 (4) - add clap Start already has one, end would be inconsistent
02:31:117 (2,3) - the whole slider here looks out of place to me O_O really? That's weird I used linear all over the place before. I want to keep this one
02:35:879 (2) - the 2.7x spacing here is nuts and it takes nothing to green the first slider Totally agree, gotta redo the pattern then.
Okay, that took longer than expected. Looks kinda funny but it's down to 2.03 and the original idea is still there. Plays great too no more 100s

Overally I enjoyed this. Challenging and fun beatmap.

Is this still going for Approval?

It's not long enough and not that hard that it couldn't get ranked...

wat.

Why it can't be approved? It's still a challenging map.

What happened to "Special Cases" for some Approval songs?
And this was pre new approval rule, we're not having another o'er the flood.

Hi!, Time for a little Check..

[General:]

- Your Standard Diff (Insane), is still in osu! format v9, you should update again and transform the file in V10. On the other hand, your Taiko diff is in format v10 but it is missing the Artist Unicode and Title Unicode, you should inclued them because it is unrankable I guess.
- Tags: Add MittenMasterzz because he has ranked GD with this name..

As I said before little check, looking some things. I'll recheck after you fix this.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not against this to go for Approval, as it is a great map, but some people will most likely complain and ask the following question:

Why exactly is this an exception to the "Marathon maps only"-rule? The map is not that hard tbh, and easier diffs would be mappable theoretically.

Srsly, I'm really just curios, I don't want to offend anyone.

Uhm, sorry Charles, the map is great and no problems, but after rethinking of it for some time I *still* not feel really confident to approve this (due to it's somewhat in a 'gray area' as you said above) ._.

Please kindly take my stars instead (I'm not popping the bubble though), support Nekomata Master songs~ xD

SPOILER

...one thing I can mention is perhaps moving the 'Smile of Split' text more to the left so it'll look more balanced, but it's veeeeeeeeeeery minor orz (and current Taiko BG has no problem actually ._.)

Sorry again Charles >_<

Heh...I don't know about this map. I love how you are once again unique in your mapping style, but I'm kinda wondering "why" to the style you've chosen to use for this music. If I were to have mapped this, I'd have used far less hitcircles and aimed for a more typical Insane. That, and the hitsounds feel overly loud for 03:29:926 and after. Guess there's nothing wrong with trying things though. Feedback after it got appproved, I know, but as someone who enjoys playing your maps I hope it helps in your future mapping.

Somebody make Zarerion a MAT. That would be legendary!
