00:01:356 (2) - nearly perfectly straight slider doesn't look so nice here imo ;w;
00:07:919 (1) - move this 1 pixel to the left if you wanted it to be a straight line
00:19:169 (1,2,3) - not a fan of this because the objects are pretty much placed in a straight line but it's at a different angle than the slider
00:26:200 (6,7,1) - this looks more like a messy straight line than a curve tbh :/
00:29:950 (6,7,1) - ^
00:33:700 (6,7,1) - ^

Hard
00:22:919 (1,2,3) - make this a perfect triangle maybe? i don't really like how this looks tbh
00:36:981 (8,9,10,1) - ^ same thing its a jump im not going to make in a perfect triangle
00:45:184 (6,1) - super high spacing seems kinda unnecessary here, and it seems out of place since it's the only time you used such high spacing for 1/2 gaps the entire song before this is 1/2 gaps and ive used jumps before so that cant be true lol anyway its the drop and its not that big

in all diffs i'm not a huge fan of how hitsounding was handled but other than that the map is pretty good. don't see whats wrong w them, they work w the song well imo, also thanks ^^
also like everything i pointed out is subjective lol

good luck~

1. kiais should be the same for all diffs

• seems fine honestly

1. 00:03:934 (9,1) - i believe you should make jump here just like other similar sounds
2. 00:47:294 (1,2,3) - this place feels empty on hitsounds, is everything ok with them here?
3. 01:11:200 (1,1) - this may be a little confusing since you didn't overlap 1/2 gaps before, perhaps space them out a bit more so they wont overlap?

1. 00:07:450 (1,2) - i think you should emphasize similar sounds the same way - with nc and red colour. because difference between them is not that big, but the way you treat them is way too different. but toying with ds of those sounds seems like a good idea (00:03:700 (4,5) - and 00:11:200 (4,5) - )

1. same stuff about bass drum thing as prev diff

Probably soft-sampleset would work a lot better here than normal since the song is fairly soft for the most part.

[Thorns]
- 00:06:981 (5,1) - Less spacing here so more emphasis on 00:07:684 (2,1) - where the stronger sounds are. Proposal: https://i.imgur.com/HTHNZv6.jpg
- 00:17:763 (2,4,1) - You could straighten this tbh.
- 00:22:216 (2,1,2) - Contrast lacking, nerf 00:22:216 (2,1) - so 00:22:684 (2,1) - stands out more. You lack contrast in several places, it would be beneficial for you to go and fix those yourself.
- 00:36:044 (1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2) - Cross-screens on weak violins and we're not even in the kiai this is great.
- 00:59:950 (1,2) - Silence these ends like 00:56:200 (1,2) - ?
- 01:06:044 (1) - Idk if this slider fits such a mundane sound, it's the same sound as 01:06:981 (1) - almost.
- 01:15:419 - Silence end? already is
[Insane]
- 00:37:215 (2,3,4) - Why do you have these as one combo when in the topdiff you had them as 1>2 jumps? Also intensity is decreasing for 00:37:450 (3,4) - not increasing so maybe you can reflect that in your spacing.
- 00:42:372 (2,3) - Straighten! 00:40:731 (4,5) - Straighten!!!
- 00:56:083 - Shouldn't this be silenced?
- 00:56:669 (1,2,3) - Flow seems a bit weird visually, try ctrl+j? well i don't see how it flows weird but i can ctrl+J just the slider so the flow is more circular
[Hard]
- 00:26:669 (1,2,3,4,5) - Triangles! 1,2,3 isn't one but 3,4,5 is one! https://i.imgur.com/r3n2BaI.png
Actually this diff is pretty fine.
[Normal]
- 00:36:044 (3,4,5,6,7,1) - Really long chain of 1/2 tbh.. maybe https://i.imgur.com/HHMf2FP.png ? i think its fine since most of them are sliders and the bpm is pretty low theyre not really that difficult even for a normal
- 00:43:544 (3,4,5,6,1,2,3) - ^ but idk how to suggest to fix it other than undermapping it ^

2. 00:45:419 (1) - this sv is a bit too sudden tbh theres cross screen build up jumps right before, people are ready for whatever i throw at them anyway the sv doesn't feel that fast tbh, i could make it faster but i don't want to overdo it either

looks pretty cool and ready, ill shoot a star, good luck! thanks for modding and for the star ^^

1. As for the hitsounds, I am suggesting you to go in deep with the 'Drum' sampleset as you can emphasize many things with it. For an example, the soft clap hitsounds does not fit pretty great for this kind of song while a drum clap would sound better and give a proper feedback. In my mod, I will not focus on the hitsounds, because I believe they have to be reworked completely.

1. 00:35:106 (2,3,4,5) - The spacing of these objects are inconsistent. I'm suggesting you to take a look to these and work them a little bit more.

1. 00:11:434 (9,1) - I believe these two objects here should follow your consistency of having a wider spacing when coming to this part. (You can take 00:03:934 (9,1) - and 00:07:684 (9,1) - as an example, which both have a spacing of around 1,83x) In this case, I'm suggesting you to move 00:11:434 (9,1) - to x:60 y:270.
2. 00:55:731 (3,4,1,2,3) - Just a quick suggesting here, nothing bad. That would be nice if you were doing a 'CTRL+G' to the slider (4) and you were stacking the circle (1) with the end of the previous slider (3). Also, to keep going, you should also do a straight line with (1,2,3), so you can create a similar effect like the picture in the box below. By doing this, the direction of the slider (4) will create a nice circular flow with the previous slider and it will make a great transition from a measure to another.
   
   Example

   

1. 00:03:934 (5,1) - I would like to see a bigger jump here to emphasize the loud sounds. A difference of 0.10x doesn't do much and we can't really see any changes. You can try to make something similar to 00:01:122 (3,4) - . Same applies for 00:11:669 (1) -
2. 00:47:294 (3) - I love this slider!
3. 01:11:669 (1) - The emplacement of this circle does not show any emphasis toward the end of the song, which is technically louder than any part of the song. What if you move this circle a little further, we can easily distinguish the different intonations coming from the previous sliders to this circle. I am suggesting you, in this case, to move this circle to x:136 y:348, it will have a perfect spacing of 5,00x and it will not be that hard to catch. (Or else, if you're not confident enough with this emplacement, you can always try moving it to x:163 y:334. It will create a similar effect with a spacing of 4,00x)

1. 00:40:731 (3) - During the difficulty, I saw that your spacings were getting wider because of the intensity of the song. However, this slider does not represent what you were mainly following at first. I am suggesting you to take the same slider, but do a 'CTRL+G' to it and maybe move it to x:336 y:208.
   By doing this, it gives the player the impression that the moment gets more intense, so the have to catch it further away.
2. 00:45:419 (1) - (This is just a comment) I feel weird with this sudden slider velocity change which gets this slider faster.. The song is pretty calm and smooth and the rapid movement from this slider does not emphasize the song at its best. It's not a bad choice, but I feel that you can do something else and maybe change the reversed slider by a circle + a 1/2 slider.
3. 01:11:669 (1) - Really great end

It's not a bad choice, but I feel that you can do something else and maybe change the reversed slider by a circle + a 1/2 slider. well i think that these three violin sounds that repeat every other downbeat are really what shape the chorus and are some of the more emphasized parts of the music (excluding the super strong drums), which is why it makes sense I'd use a new pattern that really stands out from the rest. the SV increase is there to further that emphasis and imo fits pretty well and doesn't feel awkward to play considering the low bpm. I also explained to Bakari (he suggested the same) that a circle plus slider is something I do very often in the song to represent much weaker sounds and I use big jumps for the drums so if I used them here everything would basically feel the same and wouldn't achieve the emphasis I really want for these notes. also the repeats are pretty cool ^^

1. I think you want to disable countdown and Widescreen Support.

[Normal :]

1. 00:42:606 (3,4,5,6) - Spacing changes for no reason.

[Hard :]

1. I would go for AR6, the gap with Normal is a bit huge.
2. 00:47:294 (1) - Why this have to be different from Normal ? I mean it's like you say you don't care anymore about the beat on 00:48:231 - .
   Also a bit strange since you focus a lot on instrument and complete rhythm with drums to skip 00:47:762 - . the drums here are a lot weaker than the rest so i don't follow them in any diff, i follow that violin sound instead. i end the slider earlier on the normal bc otherwise it'd create too many 1/2 gaps one after the other which i wanted to avoid
3. 01:03:700 (4,1) - That's probably a rare moment where your flow is a bit clumsy by not keeping the movement and pace of your previous slider 01:03:700 (4) - .
4. 01:10:262 (2) - If I follow your logic, you base SV on instrument tone right ? So this one should have a lower SV than 01:10:262 (2) - (that's how you did it on Insane). Also I think you should harmonize spacing between 01:09:794 (1,2,3,4) - to make it even, since the rhythm don't change.

[Insane :]

1. OD7 or 7.5 would balance more the spread and fit more the diff.
2. I wonder why you do extended sliders 00:03:231 (3) - when you cover the same type of sound with 1/1 sliders like 00:04:169 (1,3) - . That don't make much sense. I only extend the slider when those strong drum sounds follow it every other downbeat. since those drums are so strong having a clickable note at 00:03:700 (4) - makes the spacing increase for the next 2 notes more obvious and makes them stand out too with different rhythm which emphasizes them more. i alternate using an extended slide for this with using a 1/2 slider to have some variety
3. You got some sapcing inconsistency for your emphased beats like 00:04:872 (2,3,2,3) - who could be adjusted.
4. 00:36:981 (1,2,1,2) - Spacing seems a bit overdone, I mean it's higher than your transition to kiai who have a bigger intensity progression. Also that's just a weird spikediff right now.
5. 00:42:606 (3,2) - Stack
6. 00:47:294 (3) - Same as Hard. before i had the drums mapped and it was super awkward since theyre a lot weaker than the rest so i decided to follow only the violin here in all diffs

[Thorns :]

1. Spacing increase should be more progressive during 1st half of the map, it feels like it's already at his max at 00:22:450 - when you're only halfway before kiai.
2. 00:52:919 (1) - That kind of slider shap feels out of place compared to the rest of your mapping. i use a different slider shape for each 2x SV slider to emphasize it even more and keep things interesting. idk i think the shape is fine

A bit of hard aesthetic modding on lower diffs would be nice before pushing the map forward imo. tried to improve them myself, they should be a bit better now, i'll see what others say

00:02:294 (1,2) - flow here isn't the best. try swapping them on time line it'll fit in your style i guess and be more fun and comfortable, also it'll give nice highlight to 00:03:231 (3) - imo did something else
00:13:309 (4) - having this circle spaced just like four next notes isn't the best idea. it feels like a part of next measure, and it is clearly not. stacking it under the slider 00:12:606 (3) - will help
00:21:981 (1,2) - these too should have lower spacing in order to give more effect to 00:22:450 (1,2) - and be not so similar with 00:21:513 (2,3) - https://i.imgur.com/PpCTkL9.jpg
00:29:013 (3) - imo this should've been spaced closer, music is going like this https://i.imgur.com/LZwGB3J.jpg strong sounds are on the white ticks here
00:45:419 (1) - suddenly a fast flow breaking slider just from a huge ass jump is ambiguous, i'd really rotate it like this https://i.imgur.com/fxaND8u.png :/ well like this the slider kinda follows the rotating circular motion of the previous jump pattern and players are already moving the cursor faster than the slider speed due to the long jumps so they're already prepared for it. this way it also adds emphasis to the climax of the song and thje low bpm makes it playable so id rather keep it

Insane
00:32:294 (1) - flow here is like you need to move your cursor fast to aim and then slow down and move through the same direction to follow the slider path, it'd be better if you ctr g that slider
00:48:700 (4) - since it has a new sound pattern in music that are not connected to a slider, it'd be better to nc this too

Hard
00:07:684 (9,1) - space them like you did before(1.9x) and ctr g on 00:08:387 (2,3) - for more interesting and comfortaBLE flow
00:32:294 (6) - this one might be like you did before 00:24:794 (6,7) - it sounds better, since tail is clickable

Normal
it might be not a bad idea to place the first circle on the head of a slider to be consistent with your other difficulties and still not break normal diff rulesif this wasnt the lowest diff in the set id do that but since theres no easy id like to keep everything straight forward to read by using ds snap for everything and avoiding stacks to basically have every 1/2 be equally spaced so theres no confusion

1. 00:14:012 (4) - conrol j the shape here would be nice so you have some nice wave flow with 00:13:544 (3,4,5,6,7,1) - and it looks a bit cleaner
2. 00:29:012 (4) - control h the shape same as ^
3. 00:44:481 (6) - just a circle would feel better here imo for this diff for not too many 1/2s after and it lays more emphasis on (7) which is where the major change is on the tail. or could even swap this rhythm 00:44:012 (5,6) - since the skipped beat is more powerful then the current tail of (6)
4. 01:04:169 (1) - control g+h+j would be nice here makes the next combo flow easier
5. 01:11:669 (5) - could NC for the last note and downbeat nc pattern

1. 00:08:387 (2,3) - control g, prob misclicked something judging from the similar stuff
2. bit of emphasis consistency probs in the kiai compared to the non kiai, up until here 00:49:169 (1) - you empasize that low clap but after like at 00:52:919 (1) - and 00:56:669 (1) - and 00:59:950 (4,5,1) -and 01:04:169 (1) - that basicly vanishes even though it seems like you build this diff around it and planned to continue with stuff like 00:44:481 (4,5,6,1) - , it catches back up at 01:07:684 (4,1) - with the ds tho. Just seemed a bit strange to me in this diff but I might be missing something
3. 01:09:794 (1,2,3,4) - maybe keep this sv thingy for the other higher diffs, its a good idea but the base sv is still too low for this diff which makes this just look a bit ugly with no real playability change. Making a clear pattern visually with 1234 would be better for this diff imo

1. 00:04:872 (2,3) - could use a minor jump for consistency
2. 00:31:356 (3,4,1,2) - only thing that stood a bit out as pretty harsh movement here, would be cool if you make it more zigzag flow wise like all the other similar ones, maybe something like this for example
   
3. 01:06:044 (1,2) - felt a bit overmapped here, thoughts about making this into a 1/1 slider? Makes those 3 sub violin strokes at 01:04:169 (1,1) - 01:07:919 (1) - stand out more too

Top diff looks pretty solid, gl man hope you can find those bns! Cool song choice thanks

00:06:981 (5) - if you tried to stack the tail with 00:04:872 (2,4) - then you failed
00:06:981 (5) - music is low here, spacing can be a bit reduced
00:10:731 (4) - ^
00:14:481 (5) - ^
00:25:263 (2,3) - ^
00:33:231 (4) - ^
00:48:700 (1,2) - 00:52:450 (1,2) - 00:56:200 (1,2) - 00:59:950 (1,2) - I feel this overmapped, there's no important beats or trumpet finish in blue ticks there doesn't have to be any sound on the slider tails, i chose 1/4 slider here to further emphasize the very strong sounds which also distinguishes the kiai from the rest of the map (since nothing else uses 1/4 sliders)
i understand that you attempt to introduce high spacing for drums and violin rhythm, however, so much distance feels incorrect and too hard for a map of this bpm, specially when talking about non-kiai rhythms. spacing needs some polishment, other than that it's good
