[General]
Consider using darker combo colors. Right now they all really blend in with the video, and the white one is really bad against the background as well.
02:26:296 - A kiai fountain here would be pretty awesome.
[Easy]
00:07:823 (1,2) - I'm not really understanding why you chose this rhythm. It finally lines up with something easy to follow at the end of 2, but the rest of the offbeats are perplexing.
00:12:718 (1) - I found this to have a cooler effect if you just deleted the spinner. This way you can start a new beat at 00:15:244 - or even at 00:14:928 - instead of leaving that area empty.
00:59:296 (2,3) - This is already rather complex... maybe extend the end of 2 to where 3 is at to make it a little easier.
01:59:928 (2) - Same thing here
[Normal]
00:12:402 (1) - This might benefit like the Easy by just deleting the spinner and adding notes at 00:14:928 - and 00:15:244 -
Nice Normal though.
[Hard]
00:59:770 (5) - Just remove one repeat. There's not point in having the return when there's nothing in the song.
02:00:401 (5) - ^
03:03:875 (3,4) - This jump was kind of unexpected since you don't use jumps much at all in this map except at 02:43:033 -
03:08:612 (6) - Remove one repeat
03:39:243 (1,2) - This would have more impact as three circles with larger spacing rather than just the one larger spaced final circle.
[Insane]
00:58:112 - Add a beat here. Right now it makes 00:58:191 (2,3) - play awkwardly without that buffer rhythm
01:50:296 (2,3,4) - The 4 being misaligned from the 2 and 3 looks awful. Can you arrange these a bit better?
03:08:928 (5) - Just set as a circle

...you know, you had a nice smooth difficulty progression. All the maps had fairly similar themes going on. General flow was consistent. Then we get to this difficulty. I think this is going to be the same situation as a very hurtful pain was. I honestly don't like it. The flow is plain counter-intuitive when you try to fit in a lot of 1/4 rhythms, and you start mapping patterns instead of trying to fit the song better just so you have a harder difficulty. It doesn't really fit the music nor the set. As a bonus, the really light combo colors render this pretty much impossible to play if you have the BG or video displayed. Some of the map is good though, so I'll try and look through this more thoroughly later. I'll edit in the rest tomorrow, time permitting.
Edit:
Well, it seems a lot of the issues are during that intro part. A lot of the rest of the map is okay, once you fix the bad combo colors (I just set to default for readability).
00:03:402 (5,1,2) - Why such huge spacing? This is a very calm and slow part of the song. There's other parts during this intro as well.
00:09:718 (3,4,5,6,1) - Not really hearing any musical justification behind this spacing either.
00:19:980 (1,2,3) - An example of the really unfitting 1/4 spacing with pretty poor flow to boot.
00:56:296 (4,5) - Please snap these to 1/3. Suddenly following the drums after all the 1/3 rhythms is really disorienting.
01:00:086 (4) - Just make it a circle
01:52:191 (5) - Please snap this to 1/3. Suddenly following the drums after all the 1/3 rhythms is really disorienting (this one isn't that bad, but would be more consistent with the previous fix).
02:00:717 (4) - Just make it a circle
02:21:401 (1,2) - Just delete them. You overmap all over the place, but these ones just sound horrid.
I'll finish this off hopefully tomorrow.
Edit:
Tomorrow sure is far away, isn't it?
02:46:191 (1,2) - Please no. Use closer spacing. This reads and plays poorly.
03:08:928 (5) - Just make it a circle. As in not a slider.
03:30:401 (3) - After so much overmapping all over the map, this slider felt rather bland.
03:34:507 (1,2) - As said earlier, please no
I'll put in the recheck in a separate post.
