General
Overall, the biggest issue I noticed with this map are the sliders that start on red ticks when the music doesn't fit it. Starting sliders on red ticks makes the map feel off-beat and can make it feel awkward to play. This doesn't apply to every song, of course (some songs emphasize off-beats more!), but this song in particular mostly emphasizes the white ticks, and by starting sliders on red ticks instead of the emphasized white ones, the map loses a lot of its kick! I would suggest paying attention to which notes hit heavy in the song and starting notes there instead of ending sliders.
Good job on this though!! I liked the Kamaboko the most, which says a lot since that diff has streams!! (You did great on those! ) And the jumps were fun, obviously. ;D

Easy
00:03:403 - This is the start of when the more upbeat music plays, so I think it would be better if you started a note here rather than ending a slider.
00:08:697 (2) - Blanket is a tiny bit off.
00:20:697 (1) - ^
00:37:285 - This is where a new verse starts in the song, so it really needs more emphasis. It's weird that your spinner extends until here and then you start the hitnotes at 00:37:991 - . I would suggest getting rid of the spinner here altogether since it's hard to fit one in at this spot and be able to leave enough space between it and the upcoming hitnote (because a lot of space between a spinner and the hitnote is necessary for an Easy diff). Maybe try this (my cursor is sitting at the 00:35:874 - position):
00:48:579 - This is also a note that should be emphasized (it's the midway point of the verse), so I would start a note here instead of ending a slider!
00:59:874 (1,1) - There's not enough space between the spinner and the slider for an Easy diff! I suggest moving the end of the spinner to 01:01:285 - .
01:02:697 - Again with the emphasis thing. This is the start of the chorus so it makes more of an impact when you start a note here instead of ending a slider!!
01:03:050 (2) - Blanket.
01:05:521 - Start a note here instead of ending one!
01:21:050 (3) - Blanket.
01:21:756 (4) - I feel like this would be more effective as a slider extending until 01:22:109 - .
01:26:874 (3) - This seems out of place with the way you've been placing your beats throughout the diff. I would remove.
01:27:050 - And instead, I would add a hitcircle here.

Normal
00:00:580 (1,2,3,1,2,3,4) - All the sliders starting on the red ticks make this intro play reeeaally awkwardly to me DX
00:03:403 - Same deal as Easy diff.
00:06:579 (1,2,3,4,5) - Awkward sliders on red ticks.
00:09:050 (1,2,3,1,2,3) - Try this (the first note shown here starts at 00:09:050 - ) :
00:13:109 (1,2,3,4,1) - Try this (the first note shown here starts at 00:13:285 - ) :
00:18:579 (2,3) - Switch these. (So the hircircle should be on 00:18:579 - and the slider should start on the big white tick!)
00:23:168 (1,2,3) - Try this:
00:31:991 (1) - Blanket!
00:34:462 (1) - Think it would look nice if you made this a blanket too.
00:35:344 (2,1) - Something feels really awkward with these two but I can't seem to put my finger on it. Maybe change the slider to a hitcircle?
00:35:697 (1) - Speaking of the slider, end it at 00:36:932 - and start a new note at 00:37:285 - .
00:45:050 (1) - Blanket.
00:50:697 (1) - Try making this a blanket.
00:55:638 (3) - Blanket.
01:05:521 - Start a new note here.
01:22:991 (1) - Remove NC.
01:08:344 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - I'm really bad at hitsounds but I feel like the finish should be used for the "hai!" hitcircles instead of on the sliders. So on 01:09:403 (4) - and 01:10:815 (4) - .
00:03:403 - Same deal as Easy diff.
00:06:579 (1,2,3,4,5) - Awkward sliders on red ticks.

Hard
00:00:580 (1,2,3,4) - Take this as you will but when I was playtesting this, I could not find the beat to this to save my life. DX Had to replay it at least 10 times. I think it's because you made 00:00:580 (1) - end on the blue tick when that doesn't really follow the music, so maybe end it at 00:00:756 - instead?
00:07:638 (3) - Blanket.
00:17:521 (1) - ^
00:20:168 (4,1) - Stack properly! :3
00:23:168 (1) - Blanket.
00:23:874 (3) - ^
00:24:579 - Would start a new note here.
00:24:932 (3) - Blanket!
00:25:991 (1,2) - I think it would be nice if you could emphasize both of the "hai!"s here. So consider removing the hitcircle here OR something similar to this:
00:31:638 (6) - Finish?
00:31:991 (1) - Blanket.
00:34:462 (1) - ^
00:35:344 (2,1) - Same deal as Normal.

01:04:109 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - I would change this somehow so that there wouldn't be a slider on the red tick.
01:05:521 - Start new note here.
01:06:227 - ^
01:06:756 (1,2,3) - Remap a little so the sliders won't start on red ticks. The music in this part emphasizes the white ticks!
01:15:227 (2) - Blanket!
01:16:815 - Start new note.
01:17:344 (1) - Blanket.
01:17:521 - Start new note.
01:18:050 (4) - Blanket.
01:18:227 - Start new note.
01:30:932 (5) - The other four notes in this combo all have 1x distance spacing, but this one's a little farther from the rest. If this was intentional, maybe change the spacing of the others to make it flow better? Since right now the last note just looks a little off haha. Personally, I would keep the stream spaced at 1x, but if you really wanted to have varying spacing, try something like this. 0.8x, 1.0x, 1.2x, and then finally 1.4x spacing for the final note:

00:52:815 (1,2,3,4) - Fix blankets! Maybe something like this? WAIT SORRY I GAVE YOU THE WRONG SCREENSHOT! 2 and 3 should be switched here!!
00:53:521 - The BPM drop to 0.80 seems weird here. If you wanted to keep the BPM drop, it seems to make more sense at 00:54:227 - .
