[General]
nice song~
and i think you should mapping till the end, very very seriously.
I dunno, I think it ends at a good spot. If I change my mind later I'll fill it in, but argh effort! >_<

[Beginner]
nicely playable but is it really a beginner diff? imo it's too hard for beginners XD
I think it's fine for beginners.
00:18:461(3) - new combo.
I'm trying to keep the combos mostly with the music.
00:47:880(1) - the spinner is too short, try some other things here.
Yeah this was rather annoying. It's probably too short for Beginner, but I couldn't really move it or lengthen it without it messing up the flow. I've just removed it.
01:29:686(5) - new combo.
Done.
01:35:300(1) - remove new combo.
Yeah that was an accident, thanks.
01:35:880(1) - i think this spinner do not needs any vocal. try to reduce the sound volume?
I've lowered the hitsound for that a bit.

[Normal]
00:17:106(x) - add a note.
I dun wanna...
00:33:945(6) - new combo.
Done.
00:40:138(1) - remove new combo.
Done.
01:31:041(1) - the spinner does not fits the lyric...
I've extended the spinner a bit and lowered the hitsound.

[Hyper]
00:18:267(3) - try to overlay the next note?
00:22:138(4) - ^
Uhh... I don't get you :/
00:27:751(4,5) - don't like this jumpoh well...
I do...
00:32:977(2) - try to overlay the next note?
00:34:526(5) - ^
Still don't get you.

[Another]
00:19:622(2) - add clap
I prefer the whistle.
00:19:816(x) - add a note with clap
Don't wanna... >_>
01:04:912(1) - quite noisy...
I removed some claps.
01:20:396 - 01:23:299 - maybe use some jump here? also you can make the hitsound very light at first, but more and more heavy with the combo.
Nice idea, but I think I like it as it is.

great song and great map.
so

00:38:396 Delete (7)
No
02:03:654 Make it silence here
Yep
Funny thing is i think your normal is much harder than hyper, maybe that because of much circles here compared to your hyper.
Hyper has more jumps.

Hyper:
AR+2
Yep
01:02:396 (1,2,3,4,5) make it more curvy (Nazi nazi mod )
01:03:945 (1,2,3,4,5) ^
Done
01:54:461 (1,2,3,4) Hitsound on blue tick is odd/ not rythmic with song. Either make the blue tick silence or make circles on white and red ticks. For me, 8 circles with finish on every red ticks here is sound better. just suggestion here.
I made the bounce and end on each slider quieter.
02:03:654 make it silence here.
Yep

Another:
Hitsound suggestion from me
00:13:816 (1) Delete clap
Hmm... ok.
00:14:009 (2,3,4,5,6,7) add finish on (3,4,6,7)
00:15:751 (1) add finish
00:15:945 (2,3,4,5,6,7) add finish on (2,4,5,7)
I don't want that many finishes.
00:17:299 (3) remove clap, add finish
Ok
00:17:686 (6) ^
00:20:396 (3) ^
00:20:783 (6) ^
I'll leave these ones I think.
02:03:654 make it silence here
Yep
The rest should just leave it.

Mostly suggestion

Good luck in ranking the 3rd map

Volume levels are different from other diffs.
I might leave this, because it sounds like a mess if I match the volumes with the other diffs.
01:12:654 (7) - new combo
Done.

Ah..I think it's an Easy but not Beginner
For my maps, generally Beginner = Easy, Normal = Normal, Hyper = Hard, Another = Insane.
00:40:138 (2,3,4,5) - noisy
I think it fits.

No.

I want it to end on the bar.

To be honest the reason I said no to the Beginner changes is because when I simplified things the star rating went UP (over 3). I have no idea how osu! calculates that, but it's fail. :/

[Normal]
00:47:880 (1) - short
It's fine for normal.

Not doing Another because it's such a high level of difficulty that I feel I can't mod it properly. Anyways...
Awwww cmon it's not that hard... D:

All of these suggestions I recommend you try out, and then just revert back if you don't like how it plays. Pretty much all of these are "feel" things, really.

Hyper:

The main problem here is having too many sliders that disrupt the map's flow. The input of a "click" is different from that of a "hold and release", if that makes sense. Do remember that when I'm referring to splitting up a slider, I mean to place hit circles timeline-wise where the sliders start and end; you'll often have to make new patterns.
I like sliders.

00:13:816 (1,2,3) - Try making this a combo of five hit circles. The sliders feel weird. Place them at the sliders' start and end points.
Nope.
00:17:299 (1) - Try making this two hit circles, where the sliders start and end.
^
00:20:396 (1) - This would also feel better as two hit circles instead of a slider.
^
00:23:880 (2,3,4,5) - I would just get rid of the sliders here period, and make these hit circles. Wherever there's currently a slider start, end, or repeat, put a hit circle there (with a different pattern of course).
^
00:36:267 (2) - Try splitting this slider up, also. It feels better to me.
^
00:39:557 (4,5) - I would move these away from (2,3). I feel movement between 3 and 4, and no movement just feels weird.
^
00:45:945 (3) - Again, try making it into 2 hit circles.
^
01:08:396 (1,2) - As usual, try splitting these sliders up into hit circles where these sliders start and end.
^
01:13:429 (3,4,5,6) - I would add another hit circle on the red tick between 3 and 4 and make this a stream. Just me, though.
Added that circle and rearranged a bit, but not as a stream.
01:20:396 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - This feels cramped to me. That's just me, though.
That's because it's 0.75x.
01:45:171 (1,2,3,4,5) - I feel that these should all be hit circles.
You just hate sliders! D:
01:47:687 (1) - Feels weird, probably just me, though.
Maybe, but it matches the vocals.

Good map overall, though. I just think it would play better.

Normal:

I would space the 1/2s out so they're not overlapping like that. Just me, though. Only thing I can find is a few 1/2s that just play too fast for this difficulty.

00:14:783 (3) - Consider deleting that. Feels too fast here IMO.
I think it's fine.
00:16:138 (5,6,7,8) - Consider deleting this and putting a 1-beat-long repeat slider 1/2 before the (5).
Nah.
00:25:428 (5,6) - Consider making this a stack of just 3 1/2 notes.
Hmm... I tried it but it messes up the spacing with the next combo and I don't want to move that.
00:38:590 (1) - This slider looks funny.
If by funny you mean AWESOME. I can't really think of anything more symmetric to do with it, so it'll be ok I think.
01:27:557 (3) - Feels too fast IMO, try deleting it.
I like it.
01:29:106 (3) - ^
^

Pretty good map. Flowed better than Hard IMO.

Beginner:

I'd tap that. ~

Good map set overall. Star. I feel Hyper could flow better, but that's about all I could really find. Mod4Mod this was, BTW. *posts in your Mod Queue now*

01:14:203 - Logically, kiai time should end here instead of at 01:05:299. Seems to do this on difficulties but Another anyway. As for the second point, it should restart at 01:51:364 and end at 02:03:751; the storyboard should also continue until that point and not fade out until then.
Ah thanks, that was an accident from adding the volume change.
As for the second point, the map ended there originally, until I got told to map the rest. Looks like I forgot to fix the kiai for it.

Normal:

Very similar to Hyper in terms of object density and difficulty. In fact, it only has 8 less objects than Hyper. I highly recommend you tone this down a bit by removing some stuff. That will give the set as a whole more variety and appeal to a wider audience.
Removed some stuff.

Hyper:

00:15:170 (3) - Move one space to the right on grid level 3 to make the spacing more consistent and less unnecessarily overlappy.
Ok.
00:25:622 (5) - Move one space down on grid level for more correct symmetry.
That breaks spacing.
00:27:751 (1,2) - I think this jump is too cruel for this difficulty. I'd switch the start and end points around on 2 to combat this.
I tried that but then I need to move (3) too and I couldn't find an aesthetic spot for it.
00:36:267 (2,1) - Same jump problem. Actually, it's more like a recurring theme. I'd still make these styles of jumps weaker though.
Yeah this one's a bit of a killer. I've reduced it somewhat.

Another:

Hitsounds on this difficulty are a lot quieter than the others. I think they're more suitable like this, so change the others to match. This includes the final spinner, don't make it quiet!
I've changed the hitsound volumes, but I want to reduce the impact from the final spinner.

01:04:912 (1) - I suggest changing this to a 1/4 kick slider instead because I don't think it makes much sense for this to be 1/8.
Ok.
01:12:848 (2) - Increase the spacing (moving down three spaces on grid level 3 is adequate) to avoid confusion with this.
I moved the following notes up instead.
01:26:590 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - I think it would be a good idea to add whistles to the ends of all of these sliders to complement the changed percussion. This would also make sense at 01:01:816 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) actually.
Too noisy. D:
01:56:783 (3,4) - AAAA UNSYMMETRICAL. So move 4 one space to the right on grid level 3.
That's the first time I've ever done that...

General:
- Remove the letterboxing. During breaks with the flashing-ish storyboard, it looks weird and ugly :/
Ok.

Beginner:
- This is a pretty hard easy diff., because of the very frequent beats on the white ticks, eg.
00:18:461 (3,4,5,6) -
00:40:138 (2,3,4,5,1) -
Stuff like that would normally be in a normal diff.
Hmmm I think it's alright as long as there aren't heaps of red ticks.

Normal:
- Rename to Normal+? Otherwise make it easier a bit, this one is hard-ish because of the beats on the red ticks, eg.
00:14:590 (2,3,4) -
00:16:138 (6,7,8,9) -
I think in future I won't make four diffs for IIDX songs. It's too hard to balance difficulty.

Another:
- A lot of the streams and mini-streams don't really fit, they feel more like they're there just to make the difficulty more difficult.
00:29:299 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - Personally, I don't like this. It looks weird and it plays funny imo.
But I like it...

People keep saying this, but I'm not changing the difficulty names unless I have to.
Remove the flashing SB in 01:26:590 onwards since its not kiai time.. it looks odd to me IMO
Sure.
can't find anything to change more

Increase Approach rate?
Ok, +1
Decrease Slider Tick Rate? (I found 1 part that its too noticeable and not to good)

They're all fine.
01:54:461 (1,2,3,4) - maybe some Differend Hitsounds?
I made the bounces a bit louder.
the map would be great as a Tag map
....I have no idea what you mean >_>

Another:
00:24:267 (1,2,3) - I suggest to make it a moving sliders rather than static
I spread them out a bit.
00:25:428 (1,2,3,4) - I suggest to change it to >>, It sounded better IMO
Nah I prefer it like it is.

that's all I can mod,
sorry If I didn't help to your map much, still a beginner mapper
You put some effort in, and I took some suggestions, therefore kudosu! <3
