1. Check your skin demensions. According to AiBat there's something wrong with them.
2. Can't you add some tags? Techno (since techno as a genre is gone from osu) and maybe mix
3. You should enable "Display epilepsy warning" box. Because your map contains flashing scenes
4. Some vocals appear in the end and it seems kinda strange. I'd cut song till 00:22:324 (4) - but it's up to you.
5. If I were you, I'd move preview point to 01:16:621 - because there starts kiai-part, the most recognizable part of the song

1. Try to use AR8 and OD7. This is [Insane] diff, and it will make mapset more balanced. What's ore it makes patterns neat and easy-readable.
2. 00:22:076 - I don't feel like this 3/4 gap fits well here. It sounds like you've ignored a beat/vocals here, so consider placing a cicle here? It will make your rhythm easier-playable and more consistent, btw.
   Note: same for: 00:24:059 - 00:28:026 - 00:30:010 - 00:37:944 - 00:41:911 - 00:49:845 - 00:51:828 - 01:07:200 - 01:15:134 - 01:23:564 - 01:25:547 - 01:41:415 - 01:43:150 - 01:45:382 - those beats are missed and I feel like you should place something here. It will fit with vocals/music.
3. 00:47:737 (3) - nazi - normally, you don't use long and straight sliders, this one looks a bit eandom here. What's more, it is overlapped with 00:46:869 (1) - and it seems a bit messy
4. 01:40:423 (1) - I bet you wanted to use Drum-Finish here instead of soft finish. You did it with 01:36:456 (1) and 01:38:440 (1) - that's why non-drum hitsound at 01:40:423 (1) - sounds a little bit strange

1. Try [b]to use AR6 and OD5. For a [Hard] diff it's a good idea. It's a relaxing song, so low AR will be ok here (low AR for hard diff is <7). What's so wrong with current diff settings? It looks abit unbalanced and it is too slow. It makes mapset a little bit boring.
2. 00:46:869 (1,2,3) - nazi - keeping same distance between those sliders will be a good idea. example
   
   There's nothing else to say. Patterns looks a bit messy to me, but it's just your style, I guess.

1. Your OD/HP settings are the same as on [Hard]. I recommend you to use AR/HP/OD 3 or AR4 and OD/HP3 to keep diff settings balanced.
2. 00:19:349 - this beat feels different from 00:19:597 . Try to use custom slidertick hitsound to make hitsounds even more enjoyable?
3. 00:22:076 - why don't you finish (1) here? It will give you more consistent (and easier-playable) rhythm + I feel like sound ends here.
   Note: 00:29:514 (2) -00:33:481 (2) - 00:37:448 (2) - 00:45:382 (2) - 00:47:365 (4) - 01:17:117 (2) - 01:19:597 - same
4. 00:37:448 (2,3,4) - nazi - this is the easiest diff here, and overlaps like this one can stress/confuse players. What's more it looks a little bit messy here :<
5. 00:58:770 (1,2) - same as 00:19:349. But copypasta here looks a bit lazy, can't you create something different here? It will make gamplay more interesting and enjoyable
6. 01:05:712 (1,2,3) - this is the easiest diff. So, flow here should be readable and easy to understand. For example, flow at 01:06:704 (2,3) - is quite confusing because beginners might mistakenly click (3)'s tail after finishing (2)
   Note: 01:43:646 (5) - similar thing here and on some other patterns.
7. 01:20:588 (1) - same as above. It's all about making flow on easiest diff readable.Loops are kinda stressful for beginners, I've watched some beginners failing those loop-sliders two or more times :V

Good luck!

1. Some skin files doesn't seem to have the correct dimensions as you can see here.
2. Audio Lead-In between the difficulties is inconsistent, make it 1000 on all of them.

1. 00:52:820 (3) - Add a whistle on this note, it feels empty without.
2. 01:00:257 (2) - Unsnapped slider end, please make sure to resnap it properly.
3. 01:20:588 (1) - This slider shape seems kinda weird to me, probably because of the red points on it.

1. Increase HP Drain by 1 tick to balance with the difficulty settings.

1. 00:52:324 (3) - Add a whistle at the end of this slider, it feels empty without.

1. Increase HP Drain by 1 or 2 ticks at least, it's way too low for this kind of difficulty.

1. 00:52:820 (7) - Add a whistle on this note, it feels empty without.

2. 00:29:018 (1,2,3) - Another suggestion, try to encircle the previous (4) like this perhaps:

6. 00:50:836 (1) - Also another suggestion here, I suggest to set the combo color to pink here (to fit the SB's pink-color fade in) then
7. 00:58:770 (1) - Set the combo color here to blue (to fit the SB's blue-color fade out) - would be much nicer imo :3
8. 01:04:101 (x) - Err, I think skipping the beat here will play a bit awkward orz, I think it's better to add note here (with Normal sampleset perhaps) - I'm not pleased with the example below but perhaps you can get some inspiration from this:

9. 01:13:398 (2,3) - Put in ~x:472 y:140 so that (3,1,2) will form a straight line?

    SPOILER

    
11. 01:38:935 (2) - Err, the slider's second half is clearly unsymmetrical, is this intentional? Try this perhaps, it also gives a better angle to (3) imo:

1. 00:19:845 (2,3) - I think it's much fancier if you can make (2) parallel with the pink (1) and then curve (3) downward (instead of upward) like this - you might need to readjust the blue (1) but it won't be hard though (:
   
   SPOILER

   
2. 00:25:051 (1) - I think it's better to place the red waypoint not on the slider's tick, but somewhere lower instead to give a better angle with (2) :

4. 00:29:018 (1) - Move the midpoint to ~x:395 y:283 for better encircle? Minor stuff though
5. 00:40:423 (3) - I think it's better to move this to ~x:415 y:160 regardless of the spacing here to avoid overlap (it won't be hard to catch at all~)
6. 00:50:836 (1) - Same here as Insane (switch combo color to pink)

11. 01:31:002 (2) - Try using a tilted slider wave here? Plays much better than a standard curve imo~
    
    SPOILER

    
12. 01:45:630 (3,4,5,1) - Err, try to create an arc on these four? Also don't be afraid to move (3) a bit further than a normal spacing here though, it's still intuitive much (:

2. 00:25:051 (1) - That distinguishable instrument sound on 00:25:795 sounds very fitting with whistle imo and feels kinda weird having it unmapped... Just personal view though (:
3. 00:30:258 (3,4) - Hmm, perhaps split (3) into two circles here, create symmetry with (2) and use it to encircle the following slider like this?
   
   SPOILER

   
4. 00:37:448 (2) - Err, to encircle (1) better you can just move the midpoint to ~x:75 y:377 though (it won't be offscreen in play mode, don't worry :3)
5. 00:42:902 (2,1,2) - Err okay... While doing this pattern I recommend to turn off both distance and grid snap and aim for the perfect encircle instead, it will still be intuitive much though~

    SPOILER

    
11. 01:47:613 (5) - Err, is the slider's end intentionally left with Drum sampleset? Normal sounds more appropriate here imo...

Hi Lanttu, random mod~

Haven't seen you for a long time... Let's try what I can get with this one though:

[General]

Plus on Taiko Muzukashii : is 00:02:861 (1) intentional? (should be 1/4 earlier though) - I've also talked with kanpakyin about the Taiko, the break in the Taiko diffs should be either mapped (although it would be almost impossible in this case) or be removed manually from the .osu file~

Great map with neat SB as usual, I'll keep an eye on this mapset though (I'd recheck personally when you checked this mod :3)
