[Muzukashii]
00:01:195 (1) - 00:04:121 (1) - 00:07:048 (1) - 00:09:975 (1) - For some reason, I feel like these notes have a weird impact on the song that are a bit counter-climatic to the specific song part. This is pretty calm, yet you've made big notes that imply "breaking" instants which are not really present here.
00:17:292 (1,1) - I believe a dd here would fit as well as you have stronger kicks (that are the same) - and they somewhat "break" the drum pattern in 00:16:560 (4,1,1,1) - .
00:24:243 (1,1) - I'm uncertain about this, but it might be worth a try: Put in a don and change the pattern so you get in the end a ddd D -- the drum pattern would call for one instead of a simple d k D.
00:30:646 (1,1,2,3,4,5,1) - A bit surprising at first glance, but fits well the music. A simpler way to make it would either be
http://puu.sh/6taFJ.png or
http://puu.sh/6taHs.png (The second being most fitting in my opinion).
00:36:316 (1,2,1,1,2,3,1) - Same as above, there is a simpler way that fits as well as the current, which is
http://puu.sh/6taWT.png.
00:48:024 (1,1) - I'll reiterate 00:17:292 (1,1) - as it's the exact same thing.
01:12:170 (1,2,3,4,5) - In that section, I'm hearing xxx xxx (the 4 first x as well as the space are where you've made your kats -- something like that
http://puu.sh/6tbez.png). I think you'd be better off putting kkk kkk (to the risk of making kkk D a bit quicky to play), since you've mapped strict to the drums here.
01:15:829 (1,1,2,3,1,2,1) - For some reason I would hear dons where there are lyrics - that is 01:15:829 (1) - , 01:16:560 (2) - and 01:16:743 (1) - . However I see the problem with the pattern itself, which would end up broken
01:27:536 (1,1,2,3,1,2,1,2,3) - Same here.
01:39:060 - I think you would find it insignificant or anything, but add a don here ? It's a pretty loud and clear kick, which would be more than fitting !
01:41:987 - ^ Same here, but it's not a must (rolling)
01:52:597 (1,1,2,1,1,2,1) - It's a tough pattern, and different from what you've done on 00:30:646 (1,1,2,3,4,5,1) - , maybe make these two patterns similar ?
02:11:804 (1) - I don't think this note needs much accent, as well as 02:16:012 (1,1,1) -, or 02:17:658 (1) - -- I think smaller notes are more than enough to fulfill the notes.
02:23:146 (1,2,3,4,5,1) - Sadly ddddd--K breaks a bit the feeling you could have done by doing D-D--K, which would fit better.
02:26:073 (1,2,3,4,5,1) - ^ (abekobe style, though.)
02:28:999 (1,2,3,4,5,1) - ^ (Déjà vu ? -- Make it the same as 02:23:146 (1,2,3,4,5,1) - .)
03:01:012 - , 03:03:938 - Same comments as in 01:39:060 - and 01:41:987 -.
03:14:548 (1,1,2,3,4,5,1) - The simplification proposed on 00:30:646 (1,1,2,3,4,5,1) - would also work here. This is not a must, though.

00:45:097 (1,1) - The transition between these two notes is much more awkward than 00:38:146 (3,4) - as it could be unexpected. Maybe gradually decrease the speed before ? -- that is, putting .87x around 00:44:914 (1,1) - (could be extended to 00:44:548 (1,1,1) - but the gradual slowdown would be even more awkward imho.) Don't count this one.01:35:585 (1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2,1) - The last note of the stream abruptly goes up to 1.8x, and it's a K, which combined is a double unexpected thing to do. I'd recommend either cutting out the stream on 01:36:225 (2) - , or putting 1.8x after the K. Another thing would be doing it a la Senbonzakura (your own map, [Ura Oni]), that is gradually increasing the speed till you hit your intended maximum.
02:04:853 - You can add in a don, but this is not really a must-do. It feels a bit empty there, but it's not a big problem.
02:56:804 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2,1) - Same as 01:35:585 (1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2,1) -.
As Nashmun said, your map pretty much revolves around d k d k d k d.. which is more seen in Muzukashii than in Oni (due to more variety in patterns), but this is a problem due to the Eurobeat style of the song which uses a kick-hat-kick-hat... drum pattern.
Once kazuki posts his mods and you reply to these, you may call a Taiko BAT. And thus starting off the ranking process.
