General
The ending sounds really rough as it stops like a small car into a concrete wall :S
Easy
00:05:554 (3,1,2,3) - I feel like the transition here is a bit awkward. Maybe you could start the circular back and forth movement with these 00:05:554 (3,1) - by CTRL H ing 00:06:665 (1,2,3) - these and yeah
00:13:332 (4,2,4) - 00:21:665 (2,1) - I know that the map is older and ect. but you could consider polishing the map by working on/removing this kind of overlapping for the sake of structure
00:35:554 (1,3) - These could look nicer if they were the same
Any reasons why 00:43:887 (1) - or the head of 00:44:443 (2) - don't have the clap addition? The sounds they are mapped on sound fairly similar to what you have represented with claps
Normal
00:05:276 (2,3) - The sounds under the tailpoints are actually stonger than the ones under the headpoints. Overall it doesn't really work as the clicking on the headpoint makes the less strong sound more significant for the person who is playing. This is atleast how I see the things. There are a lot of this kind of issues in the difficulty
00:10:554 (1,2,1,2) - 00:16:109 (3,2) - ect, Similar stuff regarding structure as i talked about in easy
00:18:887 (2,3,4) - I feel like the 4 should support the straight movement you are creating with the 3|sliderhead4 since most of your patterning has this kind of flow usage
00:33:332 (1) - This spinner does not have enough recovery time for the newer players. Imo the best solution would be to remove the following slider and represent the strong sound on 00:35:554 - with a hitcircle as that would fix the strong sound issue I stated above while making the recovery time appropriate. The spinner's length is alright since the song is so slow (if anyone points that out, just say it's fine)
00:35:832 (1,2,3) - 00:37:776 (1,2,3) - Why is the rhythm so different here? Both of them are mapped to almost the same piano rhythm and there aren't really any kind of additional beats that would really alter the rhythm choice unlike for example here 00:40:832 (1,2,3,4) - where the stronger piano sounds continue over ~ 4 beats
00:56:665 (2,3) - This is too hard for a normal difficulty. The 1/4 repeat sliders are fine as the song is so slow but this is just too much and introducing a mechanic this far into the difficulty and not even in the kiai time should tell that this isn't really a good thing to do. On top of that it has exactly similar rhythm as hard so there could be some kind of contrast between them aswell
00:59:026 (1) - Firstly, the spinner is too short for a normal difficulty. Secondly it does not sound good to go over the song cut 00:59:964 - with the spinner as something like that is easily audible and yeah.. (the cut sounds really bad by itself so there is no need to further make the ending sound bad)
Hard
00:04:998 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10) - Again, you follow what the song has to offer so well here but you just stop doing that after a while 00:12:221 (4,5,6,1) - and then start it again for a sec 00:13:887 (1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3,4) - and end it. I could've understood if only this 00:23:332 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - kind of melody would've been mapped like that but for example here 00:09:165 (1,2,3,4,5,1,2,3,4,5,1,2,3,4,5,6,1) - both of the measures have roughly similar stylish sounds on pretty similar pace but they are mapped completely differently. This does not work at all. Of course you can prioritize the more noticeable sounds such as these 00:16:665 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - but ignoring everything else is not good for the map so it would be the best for the map if you were to find another way of representing the changes such as spacing if you really want to prioritize them. This is a problem that can be seen basically throughout the map
00:11:387 (1,2,3) - Aesthetically speaking this would look much nicer if the curve of the slider would be nearly the same as what the 1|2|sliderhead3 is forming
00:33:887 (1) - This is probably too short. Not score wise but rather because the newer players simply do not have enough time to react to the spinner
00:39:165 (3,4,5,6,7,8,9,1,2,3,4,5,1,2,3,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,2,3,4,5,1,2,3,4,5,6) - The rhythm is questionable again but you could try aswell having bit more sliders since this is basically only circles (with that one 1/4 slider) for about 10 seconds
00:50:554 (1,2,3,4) - tbh there isn't really anything on the 4 that would need this kind of emphasis, also you haven't really explored this kind of spacing/emphasis prior in the difficulty so I don't think it fits there either

Good luck~
