Nice catch with the AR, thanks for modding.
My update :3
http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=Z7s3Wk6b

Alright!

Updated the mapset!

Edit: 03/08 - Moved to Pending, finished Mapset! Missing SB only

Desculpa, mas eu tive que fazer isso.

Vi seu mapa la no grupo do fb. Já que não tem nenhum mod aqui faz um tempinho, decidi dar uma olhada.
Enfim, se você realmente for fazer o SB, isso aqui ainda deveria ficar em Wip.

General

• Acho que não deveria ter kiai entre 01:05:100 - até 01:11:416 - (onde começa denovo). Não consigo ouvir como uma parte "tema" da música, mas isso é minha opinião. Fora isso, parece tudo em ordem.

Easy

1. 00:34:508 (1) - Fica meio difícil de acertar isso principalmente porque o slider começa um tick vermelho, e considerando que o spin começa/termina em um tick branco, isso pode ser meio estranho pra jogadores inexperientes. Também acho que não combina muito com as vozes, seria muito melhor na minha opinião se o slider começasse em 00:34:311 - (e terminasse em 00:35:100 - ).

1. 00:39:837 (3) - Meio nazi, mas eu preferiria que o NC fosse aqui, fica melhor pra dar ênfase junto às vozes.

1. 00:44:179 (2,3) - Flow ficou meio forçado, seria melhor se tivesse um blanket aqui.
   
   Exemplo

   

1. 00:58:784 (2) Tem que clicar no botão de NC aqui. Ele tá superficial.
   
   Exemplo

   

1. 01:20:889 (1) - Poderia ter feito ele um pouco mais "fechado", assim dava pra melhorar o blanket entre 01:22:468 (3) - .
   
   Exemplo

   Eu também mexi no 01:22:074 (2) - pra melhorar a movimentação dos sliders e pra consertar o spacing.

Normal

1. 01:16:153 (3,4,5) - Outra passagem forçada. Ficaria legal se você trocasse a posição de (3) por (4) e de (4) por (3), assim ainda dava pra continuar com o blanket de 01:16:942 (5) - e melhorar o flow.
   
   Exemplo

   

Dekaane's Hard

Sup.
Better end the "first" kiai at 01:11:021 - for consistency with other diffs.

1. 01:26:811 (1) - Better increase the spacing from previous slider here. This doesn't play good.

Second Reproduction

1. 00:30:363 (3,4) - Seria uma pena deixar isso aqui sem um blanket. Basicamente você só precisa mover o (4) um pouco mais pra esquerda.
   
   Exemplo

   

1. 00:41:218 (4,5,6) - Dava pra fazer uma variação de posições melhor. O "triplet" mais encurvado ficaria legal.
   
   Exemplo

   

1. 00:52:468 (4) - Deveria ter um NC aqui. É só checar as outras diffs pra ver inconsistência de combos.

1. 01:23:850 - Melhor colocar um circle aqui, acho que combina com a "puxada" de ar das vozes. Sem contar que fica meio estranho nada entre 01:23:455 (4,1) - .

É isso.
Boa sorte!

Moved to WIP due to SB (dumb me o3o)

Thanks Wolf, fixed the kiai and the last note (also made some volume changes that I think forgot previously orz) <:
http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=Z7s3Wk6b

Updated Dake's changes~! (Difficult to read, ha, ha!)

I asked sherrie__fay to make the SB but I don't know whether she will accept or not. Let's just wait for now

Hello! Modding for potential M4M.

[Dekaane's Hard]
00:27:600 (1) - The second hit of this slider doesn't actually match the vocals here; there's a slight delay in the lyrics. Not really an issue though, unless you absolutely need it to be on time.

00:57:995 (1,2) - Maybe space these sliders out a bit more, to emphasize the fact that they don't actually follow one after the other with no delay.

01:06:087 (3,4) - The timing is tricky here. You could try changing the hitcircles to a slider instead, or space it out to make it a jump.

Overall, the flow is nice, and I really like your choice of rhythm in the Kiai sections. I feel like the map could really benefit from a few jumps, though. The hitcircles at 01:06:087 might be a good place to start.

[Normal]
00:41:218 (3) - This slider hits its repeat at a very awkward point in time. As far as I can tell, nothing in the music indicates that anything should be happening on that specific blue tick.

01:06:482 (3) - Space this out a bit more. The music here suggests that a jump would be appropriate. You've been pretty much using a single distance snapping throughout the entire map here, but a few jumps can really make things more exciting for the player. But the rhythm that you've chosen to work with here is nice, and is a unique break from the otherwise monotoneity of dominant white ticks. There are numerous other opportunities to repeat this rhythm, since the song repeats this particular melodic phrase throughout the chorus, such as at 01:17:732.

[Easy]
00:41:218 (2) - Again, same issue as with the slider in Normal. In fact, this is the only time you've ever landed anything on a blue tick in the entire difficulty. There's gotta be a better way to achieve what you want to achieve without using a repeat slider that hits an empty void in the music.

01:08:258 (2,3,4) - Nice shape. Easy difficulties pretty much just seem to be steady marches of white ticks, so really the biggest opportunity you have to get creative is in slider shapes and arrangements. This one's odd, but it looks nice, so good job!

[Second Reproduction]
Drain Rate: To me, DR8 is too unforgiving. By turning autoplay on after a few mistakes it seemed to take an extremely long time to recover, especially near the beginning. Maybe try DR7?

00:50:889 (1,1) - I think you should add another hitcircle in between these two, to match the second cymbal hit.

No other issues that I'm aware of. The Kiai section of this map is exciting to play through, well done!

[General]
Great maps overall! I especially enjoyed the SR and Hard difficulties. Good luck with ranking!

00:41:218 (3) - This slider hits its repeat at a very awkward point in time. As far as I can tell, nothing in the music indicates that anything should be happening on that specific blue tick. Well, I wasn't thinking of anything when putting the reverse arrow there, it's just that I wanted the slider to end on 00:42:995 xD I tried doing somehting else, hopefuly it's fixed. I'm just not too sure if it's suitable for a Normal difficult now...

01:06:482 (3) - Space this out a bit more. The music here suggests that a jump would be appropriate.

There are numerous other opportunities to repeat this rhythm, since the song repeats this particular melodic phrase throughout the chorus, such as at 01:17:732. I fixed the spacing and made a small jump for 01:06:482 (3) As for 01:17:732 (1) I don't think the same pattern would be suitable because this part doesn't have the guitar's assist as the other one, making it more difficult to follow. Even so, I added a small jump to this part too

[Easy]
00:41:218 (2) - Again, same issue as with the slider in Normal. In fact, this is the only time you've ever landed anything on a blue tick in the entire difficulty. There's gotta be a better way to achieve what you want to achieve without using a repeat slider that hits an empty void in the music. It took me some time to figure out what to do. In the end I used some symmetry and made a funny slider. Hopefuly, it looks better now.

01:08:258 (2,3,4) - Nice shape. Easy difficulties pretty much just seem to be steady marches of white ticks, so really the biggest opportunity you have to get creative is in slider shapes and arrangements. This one's odd, but it looks nice, so good job! Ha, ha! Thank you!

No other issues that I'm aware of. The Kiai section of this map is exciting to play through, well done! Thank you!

• 00:31:942 (1) - The sharp bendings here are placed at the right moment, but the slider itself looks like slider art gone wrong. /*Oh well, improved the shape, I think it's a lot better now.
  
  Difficulty is pretty solid, it's easy and nice looking. I'm proud of you, Dekaane. \o/ /*Thank you >.<

• The first 20,2% are completely unmapped. Rules say you should start before 20%, so technically you're 0,2% too late. Although that'd be extremely nazi, I suppose you should still cut a piece of the mp3. There's no sound until 8%, so you should cut this out.
  
  

  Ranking Criteria wrote:

  You must cut your mp3 if you're using less than 80% of it. This doesn't count intro time, and thus only applies if more than 20% of the outro is unmapped.

  I don't think I'm breaking any rules here. The 20% I didn't map is the Intro. I would only be breaking the rule if it was the outro. As for the outro, there's less than 20% unmapped, so I guess it's okay as it is now.
  
  

  Ranking Criteria wrote:

  However, if you have a legitimate reason for keeping your full mp3 (e.g. a storyboard after the map ends), then that is fine.

  Then there's this part. I do have legitimate reasons to keep the full mp3. The first one is the original video. As you can see, the silence at the beginning of the song is part of it. The second is that I will be having a Story Board at that part. I hope everything I said is correct. If not, please say so >.<

Easy

• 00:21:482 (2) - You should NEVER put a downbeat slider like this in an easy difficulty. The rythm is way too tricky. Oh, okay! Fixed
  00:24:047 (2) - The red point looks way too sharp to fit well with the music, would be better if curved or straight.Hmm... Okay done.
  00:30:363 (2) - Could be a nice blanket around (1), like this: https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/910426 I thought I already had this as a blanket. Oh wells, I guess I just have to improve it. Hopefuly fixed.
  00:43:587 (1) - The mainly important beats of the music are on the white ticks, so I suggest to remove this circle and use the white ticks instead. Done! I changed things a bit
  01:08:258 (2,3,4) - I'm not sure what you tried to do here, but it looks like you tried to coat the sliders around (3). (2) in the other hand does not really do his job. I don't think this looks bad... The flow looks good and it follows the song nicely, in my opinion. I'll just leave it as it is.
  01:12:995 (3) - Make a blanket of this. Blanket improved

Normal

• 00:25:626 (1) - The dent here is unnecessary for the same reason in Easy, the music goes rather smooth. Okay, fixed!
  00:39:047 (6) - The slider form looks weird, 'pointy' sliders like this don't go well with surved sliders like (3). Okay fixed!
  00:50:889 (5) - Slider start is just a little to far away, put it a little closer and fix the blanket.Done!
  01:05:100 (1) - Same goes for this slider. Alright! Done!
  01:08:258 (1) - Would look better if coated around (4)'s slider end. I like this way better because I think the flow looks a bit more smoothy this way.

Second Reproduction

• The beginning of this difficulty is a total mess. It looks like you didn't know what you were doing, to be quite honest. Hence modding.
  
  Well, while that's true, I suppose I really didn't know what I was doing. This is my first Insane difficult afterall xD. Thanks for the honesty, though. I will try to improve.
  
  00:21:482 (2,3,4) - Can be placed like this so (1) coats nicely around (4). Why not? Done
  00:24:639 (4) - Slider form looks ugly because of (3)'s form. Something like this would be better. I don't think it's ugly at all. I'll keep it like this
  00:30:363 (3) - Should be a blanket around (4). Done!
  00:38:258 (5) - This just asks for a new combo. Right, done!
  00:41:317 (5) - This note is completely unnecessary, remove it. I'm following the piano here. So I think I'll leave it.
  00:43:784 - This beat here feels rather important, don't neglect it. I was following the piano only, but even so, it plays nicely. Done!
  00:42:995 (3,4,5,6) - Just create stacks here like you did with 00:44:475 (1,2,3,4) - , it looks better, it plays better and it's more consistent. Hmm, I wanted to do something consistent with 00:41:416 (6,7,8) and also have stacks just on 00:44:475 (1,2,3,4) to indicate the "change of pace" here
  00:51:482 (1,1) - Remove these new combo's, they're unnecessary. They may be unnecessary for gameplay, but they are here for the sole purpose of emphasizing the plate sounds. Many maps out there do this kind of things, so I wanted to try it too xD

Good luck! Thank you! And sorry for answering your mod so late!

Well done.
00:21:482 (2) - It is suggested to use a slider here because red line confused. I guess you're right. Done!
00:25:626 (4) - no new combo. Okay

encounter+ - Endless Know (Kitagami) [Second Reproduction].osu

00:21:482 (2,3) - use a slider instead? I know these double notes are really tricky, but using a slider instead would just make the flow worse, I think... I already tried this before.
00:46:153 (1) - ugly Okay, it might be "prettier" now xD
01:03:817 (7) - this blue line object can be hard to read, use slider instead. Kay


Resnap all Notes! Why resnap? O.O I don't think they are unsnaped

Thank you for mod!

For Dekaane: I updated all with the general settings (Epilepsy Warning and AudioLeadIn). I added 2000 of AudioLeadIn because the Epilepsy Warning would overlap the SB >.< If you decide to make any changes, I'll update the map again.

YOU CALLED FOR THE QAT
AND WE HAVE ANSWERED YOUR CALL
IS YOUR BODY READY? we'll be coming at you in a huge wave~

Second Reproduction

00:30:166 (2) - how about moving this higher up and to the left a bit so it doesn't overlap with 00:30:363 (3) ?
00:31:942 (1) - i just want to praise you for making this perfectly symmetrical somehow, i can never do that, you have my respect
00:35:889 (7,1,2,3,4) - because of the direction of the slider from 7, it doesn't flow very well to the stream, consider changing the curve or something
00:37:074 (2,3,4) - just an idea, how about ctrl+G all these sliders individually for a more circular flow? It would be a really nice way to transition from the circular stream pattern 00:36:284 (1,2,3,4) (AR lowered to show all relevant objects)
00:41:218 (4,5,6) - yo nazi here, but to improve flow a bit, try adjusting the slider and circles' positions slightly:
00:49:311 (4) - the vocals here have some interesting rhythms going on, why not reflect that in your sliders by shortening this slider by 1/4 and adding a 1/1 slider after?
00:55:626 (1,2) - same here, a 3/4 slider would represent the vocals well, I think
00:57:995 (1) - why not start the stream here instead? having a 1/4 slider then the stream doesn't play well imo
01:03:521 (6,7) - that's what i mean by those 3/4 sliders matching the vocals It'd be great if you could apply this rhythm to other places~
01:04:113 (7,8) - sorta breaks the flow here, the direction of the slider makes me expect 8 to be on the other side of 7 lol. Make 7 a straight slider pointing directly at 8?
01:08:061 (2,3,4,5,6) - the way the vocals are presents a great opportunity for 1/4 rhythms! try this:
01:13:784 - sudden pause is awkward, add a note?
01:16:153 (7,8) - same comment on vocals
01:20:692 (9,1) - consider switching these on timeline, theh strong beat lies on the huge white tick, and it feels better to play that on the head of the slider, rather on tail, also same comment on vocals
01:25:922 (2) - add finish

HI DEKAANE

the subtle speedups here might be confusing
00:38:258 (3) - ctrl + G? to continue the previous slider pattern
really nice solid diff yay \:D/

Normal

01:06:482 (3) - too far from previous object, violates your established distance snap of 0.8x
00:31:547 (1) - this spinner... i think it'd sound better to move it to 00:31:942 and end it at original spot, while adding a circle at 00:31:547
not much to say here, nice job. The 3/2 rhythms might be confusing for newbies, but oh well ╮(─▽─)╭

Easy

Why does your distance snap change from 0.9x to 1.0x? D:
01:02:732 (2) - probably be better to move this up while still keeping it in the middle

gooooooodluck! ^___^

Thanks for modding Raose~ <3
Changed that pattern a bit. I'll keep my speed changes, I may make the last a bit lower if people keeps pointing it out >->
Here's my update: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=Z7s3Wk6b

@ax_pokl: Sorry for late reply, but I really don't feel a spinner there, as I'm following mostly the instrumental before the kiai.

Hai..second check here ~






Good Luck ~
Be ready for other member :p

Ohai~ from the QAT's queue

[General]
This is really a high-quality mapset. Well done!

But, an Easy with 3 stars? Kind of high. Also the settings are quite high for an Easy, either lower the settings (HP -1, OD -1) or rename the diff to Easy+ (even if it is not a beautiful name, but you already have a Normal).

[Easy]
High settings, please lower as described above.

00:39:047 - Kind of strange time to slightly accelerate spacing. It may be very subtle, but still, nothing has changed in the song. Indeed, the spacing even changed in the middle of a combo. Not saying it must be fixed, just wondering why it is there.

Cool Easy actually, but really, it is darn hard for its tier!

[Normal]
Actually, I'd also lower HP and OD by -1. These settings are really hard for a Normal.

This is also a marvellous diff, also a little hard, but OK.

[Dekaane's Hard]
00:31:942 (1) - I am not saying I don't like this shape, but really, this seems too abstract and random, maybe try a simpler pattern? (can't think of a more suitable shape, though. meh)
01:26:811 (1) - I don't think that this snare hitsound is necessary here, there's only a deep bass drum. But a snare.... isn't a suitable sound to emphasize this with.

Awesome diff, I fell in love with it!

[Second Reproduction]
00:41:218 (4,5,6) - I find this pattern a little crooked. Moving (5) to x:80 y:216 would match my taste a little more.
00:51:482 (1) - This NC counts as NC spam, the previous NC is enough to emphasize the instrumental hit in the background.

TBH, the diff is objectively well constructed, but I didn't really feel... "the kick" in it, you know. It was nothing really special. At least, for my taste.

Even if the easier diffs aren't really easy, this mapset's got quite some potential to be ranked in the near future. more mainstream japanese stuff, meh

Good luck!
