Really good song, keep it up!

1. Background's quality is low, I recommend to get better one. I had to downscale the BG and blur it so it looked better and fit. I will change this soon.
2. There is something wrong with timing, you should ask someone really experienced to help you with it.

I thoroughly checked it, and only one part was suspicious, but it matched properly with the guitar, so I'm not sure what you are talking about. I will keep a look for it tho.

1. Check AiMod for Object's snapping:
   Fixed them, except for 1 slider which has a timing section in the middle
2. 00:08:970 - missing note here, I thinkNo, I'm going with the guitar, and thus I am disregarding the singer.

14. 01:40:029 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) - make circles of the stream same distant to each others.alright, but had to change pos.
15. 01:42:207 (1) - should slider start at 01:41:965 - I don't hear the note there though.
16. 02:15:957 (1) - end spinner at 02:17:650 - strange, but ok I changed it.
17. 03:09:768 (5,6,7,1,2) - make distant same between these all notesnot exactly sure what you mean, but I changed the 1/4 slider's pos.

Here is my mod for your rather enjoyable map

- Overall : Nice fluid map, with some nasty angles on the spread streams in the end maybe consider to spread out a few of the earlier streams, just so it doesn't come as such a difficulty shock in the end, but otherwise very nice!
- 00:44:438 - It feels like something is missing here, you mapped the previous ooouuuuuhhh :3 ok
- 00:45:902 (1) - This feels like a lost oportunity to get something going with those drums.don't want to, because of timing sections :3
- 01:46:924 (5,6,7) - Should these exist? It should be fine.
- 02:37:989 (1,2,3) - These.. i don't know, they feel weird, but i kinda understand them, maybe a whistle slider instead? (No hate on whistles :p)VERY good idea
- 03:15:107 (1) - Maybe a break instead of the spinner, the song doesn't really invite you to destroy your wrist here?replaced with more notes to prevent length of spinner
- 03:35:923 - Maybe you should ad a circle here for some buildup for the oncoming massacre? (That was not intended to sound negative!) The drum is there for you to map nice
- 03:37:846 - Same as above.nice
- 04:28:846 (4) - This one sounds wrong timed, maybe 1/8th earlier?it was 1/4 earlier
- 04:35:970 (2,3,4,5,6) - Is there a reason for that double to be stacked, a basic spread stream would be way more natural here. (imo)yup, done!

Good luck with the map!

00:30:399 (1) remove it and extend slider to here. The reason is that although it hits on the guitar part, the strum is not loud + short enough to deserve a new noteno, it is on a downbeat, and it is accentuated so no.
01:38:094 (3) note is too low almost out of the screen. Bring it higherbut it isn't out of the screen
02:15:594 (3,4,5) unstack them. Notes seems unreadableThey aren't stacked in the first place xD
02:23:752 (1,2,3) ^
02:37:989 (1,2,3) ^
04:11:943 (2) You can use stream here because the song is 4.53 stars already the last part has no streams because I wanted to emphasize the singing.

Turn off Grid Snap. It's for the most part impossible to make evenly-spaced streams with it.I can work it out.

General
Decimal points in your BPM's usually are not right.Well, they work, so it doesn't really matter. Don't get OCD over it.
Insane? It's a marathon, naming the difficulty that isn't bad, but I think you should make some use of the freedom you have!Yeah, I don't know what to name it tho!
Consider mapping that bit at the start. Might save you from this not counting as a marathon.Pretty sure the qats will accept it

00:13:970 (2) - http://puu.sh/h3te1.jpg is this supposed to be like this? I don't think it sounds good.not sure what you mean
00:18:970 (1) - What's this timing point doing here?fixed
00:37:122 (1) - Try replacing this with a mirrored 00:35:170 (1) - Eh
00:41:756 (2) - Move it a little away from the slider.no, I blanketed it.
00:50:675 (1,2,3,4) - Try and make these evenly spaced.ok
00:52:610 (1,2,3,4) - This pattern doesn't look good, or really fun to be honest.umm, that wasn't even a pattern.
00:57:933 (1) - Sounds like a circle is missing 1/2 before this.the time is used to stress the downbeat of the drum
00:58:537 (2) - SV change here feels random.many people complain but as I said before, I think it matches and is ok.
01:00:836 (1) - Either overlap the slider more, or not at all.this makes no difference in gameplay.
01:06:884 (2) - The way this overlaps the last slider is ugly.stop having ocd. this is NOT a slider art map, I don't like slider art as a matter of fact.
01:07:247 (3,4,5,1) - Make these evenly spaced. but they are
01:10:029 (2,3,4,1) - Don't let them touch eachother.Not sure what you mean
01:14:626 (2,3,4,7,8,9) - Why are these so spaced? style
01:16:320 (2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10) - The shape of this stream is not pretty.I know, but I've tried soooo many things
01:16:924 (7,9) - These aren't mapped to anything.wow, that was surprising.
01:21:521 (2) - Why is this (inconsistently) so close to the slider?Because, it is a double. Not a triple as many would think.
01:32:287 (2,3,4,5,6) - This also doesn't look pretty you a girl or somethin'. We men like it ugly and raw and rough.
01:35:190 (4) - It's too far away.it is a accentuated note, so it deserves a jump.
01:39:545 (2) - Overlap looks ugly.blanket
01:40:997 (9) - Why not map this to the vocals?I don't wanna stress the vocals then switch to bg music again.
01:42:932 (1) - The way this overlaps the last slider as well as how its starting direction doesn't line up with the last slider looks ugly.ugly mcfugly sugly mcdugly
01:51:642 (6) - Not pretty overlap.no
01:54:545 (1,2) - Close, you're hugging the circle too tightly.what do you mean?
01:58:295 (1) - What is this circle doing there under that slider?same type of note, belongs in the same place
02:06:884 (4) - Ew overlap. This is the last one I will post on, no I don't care about your stupid pretty, girly ocd on circles. I really don't
02:12:448 (5) - ^
02:12:690 (6,7,8) - Not evenly spaced.there
02:24:769 (3,4,5) - It's being strangled (by 02:24:260 (1,2) - ). RIP.yes R.I.P inanimate circle 2015-2015. Oh wait, they are just circles I forgot.
02:26:040 (3,2,2,2) - They're placed so closely together, why not just put them right on top of eachother?where do you think they are placed?
02:27:820 (1,2,3,4,5) - Make this actually star-shapedtried but I don't really think it works.
02:29:091 (1,2,3,4,5) - ^ok
02:32:396 (2) - Sudden jump in SVit's for drums
02:33:413 (4,5,6) - What's with this spacing?there
02:35:955 (1,2,3) - Now if this could just be perfectly straight.#straighthitler
02:37:989 (1,2,3) - What shape is this supposed to be?no shape xD
02:41:294 (3) - 2 and 3 are in a bit of a long-distance relationship, don't you think?it makes buildup to 3 which is a downbeat and accentuated note
02:44:981 (1,2) - 1 and 2 here, too.both are accentuated
02:46:633 (1) - Touching the triple, don't like that.it should be fine with ar 9.2
02:46:633 (1,2,3,4,1) - Another case of strangulation here.feels like L.A Noire
02:47:904 (3,4,5) - Not nice overlapping here.
02:47:904 (3,4,5,6,7) - Straight, curved? It's both and neither.umm, I'm starting to worry about you
03:00:870 (3,4,5) - Make it evenly spaced.no thank you
03:05:446 (3,4,5,6,7) - It's almost an evenly-spaced star. Almost.which one do you mean?
03:10:150 (7) - What's this mapped to?self generated rhythm
03:10:747 (2) - Uninherited timing point here is wrong. BPM:118 Offset:190747 is what I ended up with.I tried that, and it didn't work
03:13:545 (6) - Overlap.
03:14:548 (1,2,3,4) - This is some awkward spacing.guitar is random spacing
03:14:799 (2) - Put it right under 03:14:172 (8) - or not at all.you can only see that in editor, gameplay is not effected
03:16:806 (1) - That finish does not belong.ok
03:35:192 (1) - Please have someone better at timing than me look at the few uninherited timing points here and following this.It works, so I don't need any better
03:45:514 (1,2,3) - Make it a real curve, or straight.no different gameplay
03:47:213 (1,2,3,4,5,6,1) - Spacing here feels random.his voice gets louder, so it emulates that
03:49:398 (1,2) - They look like they should be in one line, but they're not.and what about it?
03:50:369 (3,4) - Hiding these under the repeat, are we?approach circles can't hide. They can't run either
03:52:554 (2,3,4,5) - Make it a square, or something else evenly-spaced that you like.they face the same point so I'm fine with that
03:54:496 (1,2,3) - Even spacing!ok
03:57:591 (1,1) - Why are these both new combosok, and why is 03:58:258 (1) - getting a hug of death?blankets keep them warm
03:58:783 (2) - Don't overlap it with the slider like that.
03:58:783 (2,3,4,5) - Even spacing please.yeah that's what they have
04:00:111 (2) - Overlap!
04:01:318 (2) - It'd look nicer if you moved it a bit downok whatever
04:01:922 (3) - More ugly overlap
04:01:922 (3,4,5) - Even spacing is wanted here.and we have even spacing
04:06:631 (1,2,3,4) - Looks wonky.this is true fun
04:15:324 (1,2,3,4,5) - Also looks wonky. Space it evenly, or make it consistently uneven. it goes with drums' down and up beat
04:18:221 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - Nothing wrong here. Just wanted to point out that this looks nice.why, thank you!
04:19:670 (7,8) - This, however, doesn't. 8 overlaps and the angle here looks kinda awkward.:(
04:21:602 (1,2,3,4) - Wonky.just what I like
04:23:051 (1,2,3,4) - Willy Wonka wonky.^
04:25:466 (3,4) - Make the spacing consistent with 04:24:983 (1,2) - listen for downbeat and upbeat
04:32:227 (2) - Woah why is this so fast?!for the drum
04:34:400 (1) - Even spacing is not here.it should be fine, since it is readable, your map does the same
04:34:763 (3,4,5,6,7,8,1) - Even spacing and is not a curve nor a straight line.even spacing is here
04:35:970 (2) - Not mapped to anything.it helps to merge
04:37:298 (1) - Does there really need to be a spinner here?it causes no stress
04:41:462 (3,4,5) - It's almost an evenly spaced triangle.it wasn't supposed to be a equilateral triangle.
04:48:343 (2,3) - Overlap with 04:47:498 (6) - no thanks
04:50:636 (1,2,3,4,5) - Almost an evenly sided pentagon.it's fine

Decimal points in your BPM's usually are not right.Well, they work, so it doesn't really matter. Don't get OCD over it.

Antarus wrote:

"Your map must be perfectly timed. This means that your BPM and offset are spot-on, sliders end when they should, notes are generally following a recognizable rhythm (such as the lyrics or drums) which is comprehensible by a player, and that there are no unsnapped notes (you can check this by running AIMod (shortcut ctrl+shift+a) in the editor)."

Given you didn't know this, I suggest you read through the rest of that wiki page while you're at it.

00:07:542 - to 00:35:090 - should all be in lower SV as it is a clam section though! Also this suits using equal DS, so none of: it's pretty slow imo
00:24:684 (1,2,3,4) - This is bad for calm sectionWhy? I changed it tho.
00:15:756 - Weird to start here, offbeat slider imo. Make it a note here + another note or remove this soundguitar plz
00:18:970 - Remove unnecessary inherit point removed both
00:21:470 - Sound! no singer pls
00:50:675 (1,2,3,4) - Ctrl+c and paste each of these for the same slider and neatnessok
00:52:610 (1,2,3,4,1) - Weird to read, and if a player isnt using leniency that last note will be r i pok
01:05:674 (2,3) - Ugly stackingstacked better
01:06:037 (3,1,2,3,4,5,1) - Weird rhythm, not nice to a player at full speed and feels overmappedI'm not sure why
LOL SLDIERJUMPSDSD adasddadofhoejgoijeoiger
01:16:320 (2,3,4,5,6,1) - Sudden lower DS? Hard to read yobut it is the same
01:20:916 (1,2,3) - Fix DSmakes the three significant
01:28:416 (3,4,1) - Stacking 4 ruins the flow here to note 5blanketed
01:45:110 (3,4,5,6,7) - Terribly hard to play this movement on 1/4ok
01:49:465 (1,2,3) - No. Too suddenwhat is sudden about it?
02:25:786 (2,3,1,2,1,2,1,2) - Keep idea, make it less clusteredok
02:40:786 (1,2,3) - DSnotice the downbeat.
03:32:140 (2) - That end curve... so ugly! Make it... curvierok
03:47:222 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - Jumps are highly unneeded hereI call it vocal stressing
03:52:574 (2,3,4,5) - Slider overlaps are uglymade it better
k sudden DS increase after here is sudden I know this

Thats all imma point out im tired
gl with this!

1. Background quality is awful. Please try to find a better one.
2. There's not enough leadin time for a countdown, so no need to enable countdown.
3. Artist should be ゆず and title should be REASON. This can be seen in the ending video: http://puu.sh/ihJ06/c394abded5.jpg
4. Romanized artist should probably be YUZU as this is the only romanization I've seen on their website.
5. Source should be HUNTER×HUNTER
6. Remove reason from tags, as it is already in the title.
7. Duplicated tag hunter is unnecessary, because osu! beatmap search does not accept exact phrase searches.
8. Should probably remove x from tags, and add hunterxhunter instead. Web search does not take queries shorter than 3 characters, and in game search will have hunterxhunter account for x
9. Remove osuology from tags, as it is already in the creator.
10. There's no reason for this to be a single difficulty mapset. This song can easily be mapped for a full spread.
11. Timing is wrong. Here are the correct timing sections: http://puu.sh/ihLDr/d582dbe0fd.png (Fix this AFTER fixing everything else, so the timestamps in my mod are still relevant.)

1. I think Riyuu is a better difficulty name, as it is a more accurate romanization in terms of actual pronunciation of the word.
2. First offset is wrong. The first note in the song is a quarter note pickup, and the first downbeat is actually at 00:02:020
3. 00:07:542 - I feel like normal sampleset isn't really appropriate in this section. Consider changing to soft sampleset. The finishes are also really excessive for such a calm section of the song. I recommend reducing your use of finish additions.
4. 00:07:542 (1,2) - I think it will look better if you space these out a bit. They're really close to overlapping, and doesn't look nice.
5. 00:19:684 (3,4) - I suggest putting larger spacing between these to put some emphasis on (4), as it is a stronger note, and also changes pitch.
6. 00:29:684 - I recommend putting a 1/1 slider here. It fits well with the vocals. Example: http://puu.sh/ihKc1/7817923ea9.jpg
7. 00:42:487 (5,6) - This is not really a good representation of the music. The stress in the music is on 00:42:974 which you've placed a slider repeat on. It would be nice to give the player something to click here.
8. 00:42:487 (5,6,1,2) - Why is (5,6) stacked and (1,2) not stacked? I think it would be appropriate to make them the same, since they are representing the same pattern in the music.
9. 00:45:902 (1) - Better to start this two beats later at 00:46:877 It fits the music much better.
10. 00:50:675 (1,2,3,4) - Finishes are extremely loud here. I think finish should only be used to highlight strong beats, and not spammed like this. It loses its effect when overused, and is also noisy.
11. 00:52:852 (2,3) - Maybe you can try to avoid using such tight curves. I just think they don't look very good, and also play a bit awkwardly because they make the slider feel very short, and coupled with the low distance spacing just makes the movement between the objects feel very slow relative the the sliders.
12. 00:55:755 (1,2,3) - I think it would look better if you put these in a straight line.
13. 01:02:287 (1,2,3,4) - I suggest making some jumps here, because the current distance feels very small relative to the parts before it.
14. 01:05:674 (2,3) - I think if you unstack these and make it overlap instead, it will make the beat spacing more obvious: http://puu.sh/ihMqU/0f906977b5.jpg
15. 01:06:037 (3,1,2) - Sudden increase in distance spacing comes really unexpected. Low SV will likely confuse the player into thinking the beat spacing is 1/2.
16. 01:06:037 (3,2) - The overlap here looks really messy. Try to avoid overlapping at the ends, as it causes a lot of lines to cross, and make the map look cluttered.
17. 01:06:884 (2,3,4,5,1) - High distance spacing is confusing because of low slider velocity. I recommend overlapping these to make it clear that it's 1/4 beat.
18. 01:08:094 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - Same things here.
19. 01:20:916 (1,2) - Maintain the same spacing as the others.
20. 01:30:836 (2,3) - Increase distance spacing. It's too small now, and could be confused for 1/4 beat.
21. 01:42:932 - Slider velocity in this section should be increased so that the movement on the slider is roughly the same as the distance spacing. Otherwise, there will be awkward slowdowns at every slider, which is uncomfortable to play.
22. 01:45:352 (5,6,7) - This feels really unnatural to play. Try to make it smoother.
23. 01:48:739 (1,3) - Try reducing the curve, as the current shape is overlapping on itself too much, making it look strange and difficult to read.
24. 01:51:642 (4) - Why did you ignore the beat on the blue tick? I think it's quite significant and should be mapped out.
25. 01:57:449 (7,1) - Unstack to make the beat spacing clear.
26. 02:04:707 (2,1) - Increase the distance spacing? It's really awkward to play when the distance is this small.
27. 02:08:578 (3,4) - I recommend changing directions. It just feels better: http://puu.sh/ihMPt/0abd86c1ef.jpg
28. 02:09:545 (1,2,3) - I don't think these go well with the song. I'd strongly recommend that you start following the drums immediately here. The 1/4 extensions on the sliders are unfitting.
29. 02:32:396 (2) - I don't see any reason to suddenly increase the slider velocity like this. It's just confusing.
30. 02:44:981 (1,2) - This jump is ridiculous. The song doesn't call for this. The player would expect distance spacing similar to 02:44:599 (1,2)
31. 03:04:684 (2) - What's up with this slider shape? It's almost a circular curve, but not...
32. 03:06:590 (1) - Start the spinner a 1/4 beat later. It fits the song better.
33. 03:10:531 (2) - Slider end is unsnapped.
34. 03:10:531 (2) - I suggest mapping a circle or 1/4 slider to the red tick, and starting the slider on the downbeat.
35. 03:12:304 - The clap hitsounds really stick out here, and don't fit the song well.
36. 03:18:920 (1) - Try to avoid using such a long spinner. Spinners are tiring to play, and the length of the spinner might ruin the playability of the map with HardRock mod.
37. 03:27:056 - The slider ends should not be overmapped this way. It doesn't fit the feel of the song. They should all be ended 1/4 beat earlier.
38. 03:33:157 (3) - This slider shape is kinda ugly. I don't see why you need the red node there.
39. 03:44:546 (5) - I recommend unstacking this and adding a circle at 03:44:181 for a triple under the slider end.
40. 03:45:763 (3) - Excessive amount of slider points. This same shape could be achieved with just four or five nodes.
41. 03:49:655 (2) - Why are you using slider points like this?
42. 03:52:574 (2,3,4,5) - Maybe this would look better as a regular cross with 90 degree angles.
43. 03:59:386 (7) - Slider shape could be cleaned up a bit. Try to make the curved sections have a more regular (even) curve.
44. 04:00:473 (3,4,5,6,7) - The flow here is awkward because (5,6,7) is too straight. I'd move (6) to the right a bit to get a matching curve.
45. 04:01:077 (1,2) - Why overlap? I think it's better to keep the spacing consistent so the player can read the beat spacing.
46. 04:03:733 (3) - Does not fit the rhythm of the music. Something like this would be more appropriate: http://puu.sh/ihNGx/907c093407.jpg
47. 04:05:423 (5) - The note on the blue tick is more prominent. It doesn't make sense to skip it.
48. 04:13:271 (4,5,1) - Flow here is quite awkward. I recommend reversing the direction of (1) to make it smoother.
49. 04:57:276 (1) - I'd end the spinner where the string is released.

Here are the correct timing sections: http://puu.sh/ihLDr/d582dbe0fd.png (Fix this AFTER fixing everything else, so the timestamps in my mod are still relevant.) these don't work right now for me, the last one is off time and for some reason everything messes up after changing the second one. I would change but I don't know what to do about this.

[Riyu]

1. I think Riyuu is a better difficulty name, as it is a more accurate romanization in terms of actual pronunciation of the word. ok
2. First offset is wrong. The first note in the song is a quarter note pickup, and the first downbeat is actually at 00:02:020 ok.
3. 00:07:542 - I feel like normal sampleset isn't really appropriate in this section. Consider changing to soft sampleset. The finishes are also really excessive for such a calm section of the song. I recommend reducing your use of finish additions. ok, I like soft better and took off a few finishes
4. 00:07:542 (1,2) - I think it will look better if you space these out a bit. They're really close to overlapping, and doesn't look nice. ok spaced em out a lot, you didn't specify how much so I just made it farther
5. 00:19:684 (3,4) - I suggest putting larger spacing between these to put some emphasis on (4), as it is a stronger note, and also changes pitch. ok 1 arrow more
6. 00:29:684 - I recommend putting a 1/1 slider here. It fits well with the vocals. Example: http://puu.sh/ihKc1/7817923ea9.jpgI follow the guitar the whole time, doesn't really make sense to put this in, when I'm not even mapping vocally
7. 00:42:487 (5,6) - This is not really a good representation of the music. The stress in the music is on 00:42:974 which you've placed a slider repeat on. It would be nice to give the player something to click here. ok
8. 00:42:487 (5,6,1,2) - Why is (5,6) stacked and (1,2) not stacked? I think it would be appropriate to make them the same, since they are representing the same pattern in the music.I did due to earlier change
9. 00:45:902 (1) - Better to start this two beats later at 00:46:877 It fits the music much better.ok but awkward pause between isn't nice
10. 00:50:675 (1,2,3,4) - Finishes are extremely loud here. I think finish should only be used to highlight strong beats, and not spammed like this. It loses its effect when overused, and is also noisy. ok

I just think they don't look very good, and also play a bit awkwardly because they make the slider feel very short, and coupled with the low distance spacing just makes the movement between the objects feel very slow relative the the sliders. ok did my best to fix
12. 00:55:755 (1,2,3) - I think it would look better if you put these in a straight line. um ok never really noticed that
13. 01:02:287 (1,2,3,4) - I suggest making some jumps here, because the current distance feels very small relative to the parts before it.ok
14. 01:05:674 (2,3) - I think if you unstack these and make it overlap instead, it will make the beat spacing more obvious: http://puu.sh/ihMqU/0f906977b5.jpg alright
15. 01:06:037 (3,1,2) - Sudden increase in distance spacing comes really unexpected. Low SV will likely confuse the player into thinking the beat spacing is 1/2. I would like a little more reason for this, out of all the play tests I saw, no players ever were confused on this so I don't really have much reason to change it right now
16. 01:06:037 (3,2) - The overlap here looks really messy. Try to avoid overlapping at the ends, as it causes a lot of lines to cross, and make the map look cluttered. tried to fix did alright
17. 01:06:884 (2,3,4,5,1) - High distance spacing is confusing because of low slider velocity. I recommend overlapping these to make it clear that it's 1/4 beat. but then no spaced stream I think it's not that bad honestly
18. 01:08:094 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - Same things here.
19. 01:20:916 (1,2) - Maintain the same spacing as the others. I makes the third more significant though. I changed it, but made the 3 more out
20. 01:30:836 (2,3) - Increase distance spacing. It's too small now, and could be confused for 1/4 beat. ok whatever
21. 01:42:932 - Slider velocity in this section should be increased so that the movement on the slider is roughly the same as the distance spacing. Otherwise, there will be awkward slowdowns at every slider, which is uncomfortable to play. to me it already seems like its that way + 1/4 sliders aren't bad, the only part is the sliders after which don't have 1/4 near them so I think its fine
22. 01:45:352 (5,6,7) - This feels really unnatural to play. Try to make it smoother. ok plays a little better
23. 01:48:739 (1,3) - Try reducing the curve, as the current shape is overlapping on itself too much, making it look strange and difficult to read. it overlaps itself? I don't see that, so I won't change until you show me what you mean
24. 01:51:642 (4) - Why did you ignore the beat on the blue tick? I think it's quite significant and should be mapped out. ok
25. 01:57:449 (7,1) - Unstack to make the beat spacing clear. ok
26. 02:04:707 (2,1) - Increase the distance spacing? It's really awkward to play when the distance is this small. ok

29. 02:32:396 (2) - I don't see any reason to suddenly increase the slider velocity like this. It's just confusing. I put hitsounding to make it sound like a different drum although it depends on skins hitsounds.
30. 02:44:981 (1,2) - This jump is ridiculous. The song doesn't call for this. The player would expect distance spacing similar to 02:44:599 (1,2) ok
31. 03:04:684 (2) - What's up with this slider shape? It's almost a circular curve, but not... ok
32. 03:06:590 (1) - Start the spinner a 1/4 beat later. It fits the song better. ok
33. 03:10:531 (2) - Slider end is unsnapped. will fix after timing fix since that causes this
34. 03:10:531 (2) - I suggest mapping a circle or 1/4 slider to the red tick, and starting the slider on the downbeat. ok
35. 03:12:304 - The clap hitsounds really stick out here, and don't fit the song well. ok
36. 03:18:920 (1) - Try to avoid using such a long spinner. Spinners are tiring to play, and the length of the spinner might ruin the playability of the map with HardRock mod. would be nice if you could suggest a option
37. 03:27:056 - The slider ends should not be overmapped this way. It doesn't fit the feel of the song. They should all be ended 1/4 beat earlier. ok but seems weird this way
38. 03:33:157 (3) - This slider shape is kinda ugly. I don't see why you need the red node there. ok
39. 03:44:546 (5) - I recommend unstacking this and adding a circle at 03:44:181 for a triple under the slider end. ok

43. 03:59:386 (7) - Slider shape could be cleaned up a bit. Try to make the curved sections have a more regular (even) curve. but it generated that curve for me so I don't see how I change it
44. 04:00:473 (3,4,5,6,7) - The flow here is awkward because (5,6,7) is too straight. I'd move (6) to the right a bit to get a matching curve. tried my best
45. 04:01:077 (1,2) - Why overlap? I think it's better to keep the spacing consistent so the player can read the beat spacing. overlap because it matches flow IMO
46. 04:03:733 (3) - Does not fit the rhythm of the music. Something like this would be more appropriate: http://puu.sh/ihNGx/907c093407.jpg ok
47. 04:05:423 (5) - The note on the blue tick is more prominent. It doesn't make sense to skip it. dont see a good fix for it tho
48. 04:13:271 (4,5,1) - Flow here is quite awkward. I recommend reversing the direction of (1) to make it smoother. dont see how thats better but whatever
49. 04:57:276 (1) - I'd end the spinner where the string is released. ok

You may call me to mod again after fixing these.

1. The approach rate is too high, and should be lowered to at most 9.0.
2. 00:13:270 (1,2) - Could be better, aesthetically. I recommend moving (2) to x:352|y:300 so they are symmetrical.
3. 00:17:198 (1,2,3) - I recommend moving these lower so they are not so close to 00:16:484 (2) Try x:108|y:228.
4. 00:18:984 (1,2,3) - Try moving these so they don't overlap with 00:17:913 (4) Edge overlaps like this look sloppy.
5. 00:22:913 (3,4) - Move (3) and the repeat of (4) further apart.
6. 00:29:698 - You said you wouldn't add a slider here because you were following guitar, but there is no guitar at 00:28:984 (1) either. The current rhythm is just awkward to play.
7. 00:38:608 (3,1,1,2,5,6) - Combo usage inconsistency.
8. 00:52:640 (1,2,3,4,1) - I strongly recommend using distance snap for things like this. It will look much neater.
9. 00:54:576 (3) - Give it a bit of a concave down curve for flow leading. It will be more comfortable to play.
10. 00:56:269 (3,1) - Increase distance spacing here for emphasis on downbeat.
11. 00:59:415 - I think a circle should be added here. It goes with the drum, and makes the rhythm much more intuitive to play.
12. 01:00:382 - It would be much better to have a click here for the start of a phrase.
13. 01:00:503 (1,1) - Increase distance spacing to avoid confusion. Match with 00:58:568 (2,1)
14. 01:01:592 (1,1) - Unstacked is better. The stack just doesn't seem to fit how the music feels.
15. 01:03:044 (4,1) - To look better, either stack or overlap by half like this: http://puu.sh/iFMhz/51b85d630f.jpg Small overlaps are ugly.
16. 01:03:044 (4,3) - Avoid overlapping these.
17. 01:06:068 (3,1,2,3,4,5,1) - The distance spacing change is too dramatic and unpredictable. If you're going to use spaced streams, I strongly recommend increasing the distance spacing at 01:03:527 (1,2,3,4,1,2) to make the change less abrupt. Also, map out the rhythms in 01:06:068 (3) because the way you've used a slow and long slider here tricks the player into slowing down, and makes the spaced streams unexpected.
18. 01:08:124 (1,2) - Rhythm here doesn't make sense. There's nothing significant to put the head of a longer slider at (2). Emphasis should be on either 01:08:487 or 01:08:608
19. 01:08:971 (5,6,7) - This is way too sharp, and uncomfortable to play. Please make the pattern smoother.
20. 01:06:068 (3,2) - Avoid edge overlap.
21. 01:09:818 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,1) - Looks very messy, and also doesn't flow very well. Try to use some kind of recognizable flow/visual pattern.
22. 01:16:350 (2,3,4,5,6) - This is also really uncomfortable.
23. 01:20:221 (5,6,7) - Same here.
24. 01:20:463 (7,8,9,1) - This overlap looks really messy. Each circle is overlapping the slider in a different way, and non-parallel. I recommend moving the slider somewhere else, where it won't be overlapping.
25. 01:22:398 (1,2,3,4,5) - Uhh.. can we make them evenly spaced and parallel?
26. 01:28:447 (3,4) - The drop-off flow here makes the distance spacing feel extremely small, and it's tricky to play. I'd try to space it out by moving (4) higher up on the screen.
27. 01:30:866 (2,3) - Increase distance spacing and avoid overlap.
28. 01:32:318 (2,3,4,5,6) - Flow here is pretty weird. I think this would play much nicer: http://puu.sh/iFMXt/61b7451966.jpg
29. 01:33:769 (7,8,9,1,2,3,4,1,2) - Spacing feels really random, and disconnected from the music, making it unintuitive to play. Think about using larger spacing leading into stronger notes, and smaller spacing into weaker notes.
30. 01:36:915 (1) - I think it's not necessary to have a circle here. Leaving and empty space will help to give stronger emphasis to 01:37:156 (1)
31. 01:37:156 (1,2,3,4) - Not really important, but why not make this a perfect square?
32. 01:42:963 - Slider velocity in this section feels too low, making the sliders awkward to play. I recommend 1.5x multiplier.
33. 01:43:568 (6,7) - This flows nicer: http://puu.sh/iFNeg/b832db02fd.jpg
34. 01:44:415 (5,6,7,1,2,3,4) - Flow between these two streams is too sharp, and hard to catch. Try to make it smoother.
35. 01:45:382 (5,6,7,1,2,3,4) - Same here.
36. 01:45:866 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - Shape of the stream seems random. Try to make a cleaner and more defined shape.
37. 01:48:769 (1,2,3) - Make the distance spacing more even. (2,3) is a lot smaller now, and I don't see a reason for it. It just hurts the flow.
38. 01:49:253 (3,1) - Space it out? I think the looks and plays better.
39. 01:50:221 (5,6) - Flow is too rigid. Move (6) and the stream down to make it rounder and smoother.
40. 01:51:431 (2,3,4) - This is really awkward to play, and doesn't look good either.
41. 01:51:673 (4,5,6) - Don't vary distance spacing so much like this. Try to keep it somewhat consistent so the player can read the rhythm with certainty.
42. 01:52:640 (1,2,3,4) - I think larger distance spacing (jumps) would fit the music better here.
43. 01:54:455 - Circle here? It covers the vocal note, and also helps to make (1) feel stronger.
44. 01:57:479 (7,1,2) - Same stuff about distance spacing.
45. 01:58:447 - End kiai here.
46. 02:02:318 (1,2) - Blanket can be improved. Blankets should be evenly spaced all the way around. That is to say, every point on the inner edge of (1) should be equidistant from (2).
47. 02:04:253 (1,2) - Antijump feels awkward to play here. I think you should just space it out. Also, the way the edge of (2) is close to (1) makes it unpleasant to look at.
48. 02:05:705 (1) - Widen the curve and make a regular, non-overlapping blanket. It will look much better.
49. 02:13:931 (5,6) - Should increase distance spacing here.
50. 02:17:899 (1,2,3) - Triples emphasize the third note, which in this case, I don't really think is worth of emphasis. Rather, I think the rhythm should look like this: http://puu.sh/iFNV5/e54e87e0f6.jpg
51. 02:26:035 (3,2,2,2) - Make them perfectly stacked.
52. 02:27:815 (1,2,3,4,5) - Increase the separation a bit so they aren't so close to touching.
53. 02:33:662 (6,1,2) - High slider velocity leading into low distance spacing is really uncomfortable to play here. Consider decreasing the slider velocity, increasing the distance spacing, or both.
54. 02:39:001 (2) - Curve is too tight, and doesn't look good. The path of the slider will be much clearer if you widen the curve.
55. 02:40:781 (1,2,3) - Same thing about distance spacing.
56. 02:42:052 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - Why vary the spacing like this? Can't you make it rotationally symmetrical?
57. 02:44:594 (1,2,1) - The distance spacing is really confusing. Set the distance according to beat spacing.
58. 02:45:865 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3,4,5) - The way everything overlaps here is really messy. Try to put some space between things so they don't overlap so much in such a short period of time.
59. 02:48:916 (2,3) - Plays better if you increase the distance.
60. 02:50:950 (2,3) - Same here.
61. 02:52:221 (2,3,4,5) - Try to avoid rectangular jumps like this. Right angles are not comfortable to play.
62. 02:56:798 (8) - Rotate counterclockwise a bit for smoother flow from (7).
63. 02:58:069 (1,2) - Looks a lot like 02:56:543 (7,8) but the rhythm is different, which could be confusing. Maybe you can stack these instead?
64. 02:59:340 (3,4,5) - Even out the spacing (visually, not distance spacing).
65. 03:01:374 (5,1) - Potential for a triple here, as the drum note on the blue tick is quite loud.
66. 03:03:916 (1,2) - Try to avoid the overlap.
67. 03:09:255 (3,4,5) - Flow between these feels weird to me. Just try to rearrange it in a way that allows for smoother cursor movement.
68. 03:10:272 (1,3) - I think it would be good if (3) blanketed the end of (1). Maybe something like this: http://puu.sh/iFOPT/561071c24d.jpg
69. 03:13:323 (5,6,7) - Flow could be made smoother by making the curve of (7) fit the motion from (5,6).
70. 03:14:594 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) - Distance spacing feels really random. Please reconsider with beat emphasis in mind.
71. 03:29:086 (3,4) - Avoid overlap.
72. 03:30:103 (4,1) - Increase distance spacing.
73. 03:33:154 (3,4) - Same here.
74. 03:45:833 (3) - Shape will look better if you rearrange the points like this: http://puu.sh/iFP2J/8cbdb3e57a.jpg
75. 03:49:462 (1,2) - Can space these out a bit more. You had really large spacing at 03:45:591 (1,2,3) so make it similar.
76. 03:49:704 (2,3,4) - Unstack (3,4) from the repeat of (2). The distance is really small, and it's better note to cover the circles completely.
77. 03:58:776 (2,3,4,5) - Space your stream consistently.
78. 04:00:470 (3,4,5,6,7) - Angle is too sharp for spaced stream. When you use spaced streams, the shape of the stream becomes less obvious, so you need to use simpler shapes to make it playable. Otherwise, it may look to the player like you are just spamming circles randomly.
79. 04:00:954 (7,1,2,3) - Space it out.
80. 04:04:946 (1,2,3,4,5) - Can we make this a rounder shape? Straight spaced stream doesn't feel that great to play, and also (5) is way up in the corner, at risk of overlapping with the score counter.
81. 04:17:768 (3,1) - Space out or stack.
82. 04:28:171 (1,2,3) - Spacing is unexpected. Overlap or stack them.
83. 04:31:317 - End kiai here and restart at 04:37:123
84. 04:36:518 (6,1) - I don't think it flows well to have it straight like this. I recommend moving (1,2) kind of like this: http://puu.sh/iFPYB/087be31f42.jpg
85. 04:48:252 (1,2,3,4) - Really harsh flow at the head of (4). Please make it smoother.
86. 04:56:478 - End kiai here.

Flow and aesthetic are important aspects of a map, and are a significant part of how the QAT judges the quality.

[Riyuu]

1. The approach rate is too high, and should be lowered to at most 9.0. For now, I will say no because of spaced stream. AR9.0 is too low in my opinion.
2. 00:13:270 (1,2) - Could be better, aesthetically. I recommend moving (2) to x:352|y:300 so they are symmetrical. ok
3. 00:17:198 (1,2,3) - I recommend moving these lower so they are not so close to 00:16:484 (2) Try x:108|y:228. The notes match up in my mind in terms of how they sound so I did this.
4. 00:18:984 (1,2,3) - Try moving these so they don't overlap with 00:17:913 (4) Edge overlaps like this look sloppy. they don't even overlap, they just touch.
5. 00:22:913 (3,4) - Move (3) and the repeat of (4) further apart. ok
6. 00:29:698 - You said you wouldn't add a slider here because you were following guitar, but there is no guitar at 00:28:984 (1) either. The current rhythm is just awkward to play. LOL, there's a guitar if you listen, there's like a scratch.
7. 00:38:608 (3,1,1,2,5,6) - Combo usage inconsistency. ok
8. 00:52:640 (1,2,3,4,1) - I strongly recommend using distance snap for things like this. It will look much neater. doesn't look that much better but ok
9. 00:54:576 (3) - Give it a bit of a concave down curve for flow leading. It will be more comfortable to play. ok
10. 00:56:269 (3,1) - Increase distance spacing here for emphasis on downbeat. ok
11. 00:59:415 - I think a circle should be added here. It goes with the drum, and makes the rhythm much more intuitive to play. ok
12. 01:00:382 - It would be much better to have a click here for the start of a phrase. yes
13. 01:00:503 (1,1) - Increase distance spacing to avoid confusion. Match with 00:58:568 (2,1) ok
14. 01:01:592 (1,1) - Unstacked is better. The stack just doesn't seem to fit how the music feels. ok
15. 01:03:044 (4,1) - To look better, either stack or overlap by half like this: http://puu.sh/iFMhz/51b85d630f.jpg Small overlaps are ugly. first of all, overlaps aren't ugly. Secondly, the slider appears well after the hit circle. There is no way.
16. 01:03:044 (4,3) - Avoid overlapping these. you just told me to half overlap on the SAME thing
17. 01:06:068 (3,1,2,3,4,5,1) - The distance spacing change is too dramatic and unpredictable. If you're going to use spaced streams, I strongly recommend increasing the distance spacing at 01:03:527 (1,2,3,4,1,2) to make the change less abrupt. Also, map out the rhythms in 01:06:068 (3) because the way you've used a slow and long slider here tricks the player into slowing down, and makes the spaced streams unexpected. in my opinion I don't see how the first helps, and secondly the long slider is like that mysterious calm then the storm if you know what I mean.
18. 01:08:124 (1,2) - Rhythm here doesn't make sense. There's nothing significant to put the head of a longer slider at (2). Emphasis should be on either 01:08:487 or 01:08:608 singer.
19. 01:08:971 (5,6,7) - This is way too sharp, and uncomfortable to play. Please make the pattern smoother. It would help if you made a suggestion.
20. 01:06:068 (3,2) - Avoid edge overlap. it represents 1/4 distance in my opinion. You also don't list any reasons to do so.
21. 01:09:818 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,1) - Looks very messy, and also doesn't flow very well. Try to use some kind of recognizable flow/visual pattern. It's a bunch of triangles, they aren't right triangles but eh.
22. 01:16:350 (2,3,4,5,6) - This is also really uncomfortable. I figured that one. I tried to make it better.
23. 01:20:221 (5,6,7) - Same here. It's a straight line except for one note. How is that hard in any way?
24. 01:20:463 (7,8,9,1) - This overlap looks really messy. Each circle is overlapping the slider in a different way, and non-parallel. I recommend moving the slider somewhere else, where it won't be overlapping. Why does everyone have to hate on overlaps? They look good to my eyes, and many others not just me.
25. 01:22:398 (1,2,3,4,5) - Uhh.. can we make them evenly spaced and parallel? tried to fix spacing that I could see, but I think reversing directions kinda takes off of the hitsounds changing every beat
26. 01:28:447 (3,4) - The drop-off flow here makes the distance spacing feel extremely small, and it's tricky to play. I'd try to space it out by moving (4) higher up on the screen. ok
27. 01:30:866 (2,3) - Increase distance spacing and avoid overlap. First of all, THEY AREN'T OVERLAPPING. Secondly, no reason to do this, but I stacked 3 and next 1.
28. 01:32:318 (2,3,4,5,6) - Flow here is pretty weird. I think this would play much nicer: http://puu.sh/iFMXt/61b7451966.jpg weird can be funner. I also don't completely understand your pattern.
29. 01:33:769 (7,8,9,1,2,3,4,1,2) - Spacing feels really random, and disconnected from the music, making it unintuitive to play. Think about using larger spacing leading into stronger notes, and smaller spacing into weaker notes. I tried
30. 01:36:915 (1) - I think it's not necessary to have a circle here. Leaving and empty space will help to give stronger emphasis to 01:37:156 (1) it sounds just wrong to me.
31. 01:37:156 (1,2,3,4) - Not really important, but why not make this a perfect square? ok
32. 01:42:963 - Slider velocity in this section feels too low, making the sliders awkward to play. I recommend 1.5x multiplier. I hesitated, but ok
33. 01:43:568 (6,7) - This flows nicer: http://puu.sh/iFNeg/b832db02fd.jpg no, it's too sharp
34. 01:44:415 (5,6,7,1,2,3,4) - Flow between these two streams is too sharp, and hard to catch. Try to make it smoother. changed slider direction
35. 01:45:382 (5,6,7,1,2,3,4) - Same here. ok
36. 01:45:866 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - Shape of the stream seems random. Try to make a cleaner and more defined shape. I tried slightly
37. 01:48:769 (1,2,3) - Make the distance spacing more even. (2,3) is a lot smaller now, and I don't see a reason for it. It just hurts the flow. ok
38. 01:49:253 (3,1) - Space it out? I think the looks and plays better. ok
39. 01:50:221 (5,6) - Flow is too rigid. Move (6) and the stream down to make it rounder and smoother. I changed SV it seemed to help
40. 01:51:431 (2,3,4) - This is really awkward to play, and doesn't look good either. It's foreshadowing to 04:06:639 (1,2,3,4,5) -
41. 01:51:673 (4,5,6) - Don't vary distance spacing so much like this. Try to keep it somewhat consistent so the player can read the rhythm with certainty. maybe I should leave it as it is because 1. It feels better. c. It sounds good with Music theory. and 29. It's hitsounded to be like that.
42. 01:52:640 (1,2,3,4) - I think larger distance spacing (jumps) would fit the music better here. ok
43. 01:54:455 - Circle here? It covers the vocal note, and also helps to make (1) feel stronger. sounds weird but ok
44. 01:57:479 (7,1,2) - Same stuff about distance spacing. Same stuff about distance spacing.

48. 02:05:705 (1) - Widen the curve and make a regular, non-overlapping blanket. It will look much better. I like it I guess
49. 02:13:931 (5,6) - Should increase distance spacing here. ok
50. 02:17:899 (1,2,3) - Triples emphasize the third note, which in this case, I don't really think is worth of emphasis. Rather, I think the rhythm should look like this: http://puu.sh/iFNV5/e54e87e0f6.jpg but then it doesn't match drum
51. 02:26:035 (3,2,2,2) - Make them perfectly stacked. yep
52. 02:27:815 (1,2,3,4,5) - Increase the separation a bit so they aren't so close to touching. again what's so bad about touch
53. 02:33:662 (6,1,2) - High slider velocity leading into low distance spacing is really uncomfortable to play here. Consider decreasing the slider velocity, increasing the distance spacing, or both. I did second
54. 02:39:001 (2) - Curve is too tight, and doesn't look good. The path of the slider will be much clearer if you widen the curve. ok didn't really help but whatever
55. 02:40:781 (1,2,3) - Same thing about distance spacing. Same thing about distance spacing.
56. 02:42:052 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - Why vary the spacing like this? Can't you make it rotationally symmetrical? ok

58. 02:45:865 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3,4,5) - The way everything overlaps here is really messy. Try to put some space between things so they don't overlap so much in such a short period of time. I saw no overlaps
59. 02:48:916 (2,3) - Plays better if you increase the distance. not possible in it's situation
60. 02:50:950 (2,3) - Same here. somebody else recommended this.
61. 02:52:221 (2,3,4,5) - Try to avoid rectangular jumps like this. Right angles are not comfortable to play. "JI ka KU"
62. 02:56:798 (8) - Rotate counterclockwise a bit for smoother flow from (7). ok
63. 02:58:069 (1,2) - Looks a lot like 02:56:543 (7,8) but the rhythm is different, which could be confusing. Maybe you can stack these instead? it has larger DS so it's fine I think

69. 03:13:323 (5,6,7) - Flow could be made smoother by making the curve of (7) fit the motion from (5,6). ok I tried
70. 03:14:594 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) - Distance spacing feels really random. Please reconsider with beat emphasis in mind. ok
71. 03:29:086 (3,4) - Avoid overlap. I'm not going to reply to these anymore unless I fix them
72. 03:30:103 (4,1) - Increase distance spacing. ok
73. 03:33:154 (3,4) - Same here.no

Otherwise, it may look to the player like you are just spamming circles randomly. what else am I supposed to do with the flow from 2 before?
79. 04:00:954 (7,1,2,3) - Space it out. why?
80. 04:04:946 (1,2,3,4,5) - Can we make this a rounder shape? Straight spaced stream doesn't feel that great to play, and also (5) is way up in the corner, at risk of overlapping with the score counter. ok
81. 04:17:768 (3,1) - Space out or stack. nah
82. 04:28:171 (1,2,3) - Spacing is unexpected. Overlap or stack them. now you tell me to overlap something
83. 04:31:317 - End kiai here and restart at 04:37:123 kiai is the mapper's choice. Not objective, but subjective.
84. 04:36:518 (6,1) - I don't think it flows well to have it straight like this. I recommend moving (1,2) kind of like this: http://puu.sh/iFPYB/087be31f42.jpg I like it sorta
85. 04:48:252 (1,2,3,4) - Really harsh flow at the head of (4). Please make it smoother. hard to do that without a suggestion
86. 04:56:478 - End kiai here.

You should probably look for more mods. all the mods I got were just random stuff but ok I'll see.
You can call me back for more when you've applied these.

AR 9.3 feels definitely too high, the slow parts are pretty awkward with it and there are no parts to justify such high ar, 9 most likely would be sufficient Yes it would, except that the circle density varies a lot in the beatmap. The low parts are bad, yes, but the high dense parts need higher than 9 IMO
consider upping the OD I already have from the original so I'm not sure.

00:20:055 (4) - slider would fit the vocals better ok done
00:33:286 feels like there should be something, or maybe add a break? too short for a break.
00:46:350 this beat feels to significant to be left out ok
00:53:124 (3,4) - curcing those the same would look better ok
01:05:705 (2,3) - this looks a bit weird not sure why? maybe overlap but overlap is not bad
01:08:366 (2) - rotate sliderend a bit down for a bettertransition I like foreshadowing
01:30:866 (2) - ^ left nah, if you are talking about flow, you need to keep in mind that no one actually stays until the end of the slider.
01:36:915 (1) - removing this would emphasize the part after much better ehh, no. Because there is a jump, I feel it emphasizes it even more.
01:42:963 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - this would flow and play much better I would, maybe if you FINSHED THE SUGGESTION
01:44:535 (6,7) - this transition feels a bit awkward to play I don't feel it
01:45:503 (6,7) - here too here neither
02:33:662 (6) - (soft/normal) whistle instead of clap? doesn't finish or match up with the whole picture of hitsounds.
02:44:721 (2) - stac kthis like the ones before? I'd rather not.
02:45:103 (2) - stack on 02:44:340 (2,1) - ? no thanks
03:04:679 (2) - make this sldier look better it looks fine
03:06:713 (1) - start the spinner on the blue tick already too much wasted time IMO. It also ignores the beat later.
03:10:781 (3,2) - that overlap looks bad, put 2 on the slider or below it what overlap?
03:33:154 (3,4) - blanket those with each other I overlapd a little
03:59:381 (7,2) - blanket? not sure how to
04:00:470 (3,7,1) - increase distanceok
04:20:671 (9) - move a bit upwards ok thanks for mod!

Hi, this is for M4M

That first red timing point is off. It is not BPM 70 there, I tried normalizing it to 88 as your next red point and it works perfectly with your current first slider.
(In which case you should let first red be 889, and delete second red) just because it works doesn't mean it's right or RANKABLE
There are many SV irregularities that I did not expect and were not backed up by enough musical reason either, so if you could standardize the SV to 3 or 4 speeds that would be great. E.g. I get why 01:52:640 (1,2,3,4) would be slow but not why the next slider 01:54:576 (1) still is, because ordinary drum beats have come back. Hitsounds tricked me into this one
There are parts where the difficulty level just drops way too significantly. Consider making it a little bit more uniform. The ehck
Many patterns in your map do not come off to me as following the music. I'm sure many others would agree. Consult similar ranked maps to get an idea whether something is musically sound or not, because at the moment, due to this fact mostly, it could be quite a while before this gets ranked. But I'm sure you will improve!
Thanks for the compliment because I'm a mapping hipster!

Riyuu

00:03:092 (2) - Head of slider is mistimed. Try 00:03:007 then lengthen slider by 1 tick. meh doesn't need it
00:10:413 (1) - Not sure why you would want a finish here, song has barely started. lol is that really your reasoning?
00:11:841 (4) - ^ as above, also at 00:21:841 (1) and many other finishes in this intro Yes there are "^ as above"
00:17:555 (3) - Consider putting a slider here instead of at the next red as the change of chord is on this beat. Don't know how to make that fit properly
00:22:913 (3) - ^ ehh
00:33:286 - I'm pretty sure that timing point is not snapped properly, it should be at 33:270. Consequently move all other timing points back by 16 (I can hear everything after this being slightly late) I'm just going to ignore all timing point related stuff no offense
00:52:640 (1) - This finish is out of place, your trend here is to put finishes every 2 bars. (plus there are no cymbals going off in the music) LOL I did it before, why didn't you complain then?
00:54:576 (3) - e.g. a finish here would be a lot better. (no more hitsound mods after this, you get my idea) this was good, everythin else wasn't
01:06:068 (3) - Consider putting a circle here for the vocals, then the slider on 01:06:189 for the drum. I feel like mine gives time to realize a section change and yours doesn't do as good a job
01:06:189 (3) - Actually your stream should starts here 'coz that's when vocalist starts singing at 1/4. I'm not mapping to vocalist....
01:07:277 (3,4,5) - This part shouldn't be here at all, because he's not singing at 1/4. Always map to the music, even if they might be boring to play at first, it will come to you that by doing so you will make your map that much more fun to play. There is 1/4 in the bg tho
01:08:124 (1) - ^ stream^
01:08:971 (5,6,7) - ^ no stream^
01:10:060 (2) - ^ start stream here^
01:11:027 (2,3,4,1) - try this (also for music's sake):
NOPE
01:42:963 (1) - I'm against this very long stream because it feels to me as if you're making this hard for the sake of it being hard. Again, the map does not supersede the music. um your right in that the map doesn't supersede the music because THERE IS 1/4!!!!
01:52:398 (7) - So in the middle of all that chaos you missed the vocals on this point so that (7) there was my extra circle. Doesn't fit
02:29:086 (1) - End the slider stream here and put a circle here instead, and start again at (2) because he starts singing again. Nah, because it's overmap of drum
02:30:103 (5) - Let this be just a circle instead; you're not mapping anything after this sound anyway. Why? What reason? "you're not mapping anything after this sound anyway." WTH is that supposed to mean?
02:41:543 (4) - You're missing a drum beat here, and ok to both
02:41:798 (5) - here.
02:55:527 (3) - Consider making this jump bigger 'coz there's a bigger note jump too. again what does this mean?
03:00:103 (6) - No object here? Feels hanging. That's because it IS!
03:40:873 (8) - Better if you had this turn back to map the guitar sound on 03:40:994 but it already does
04:00:470 (3) - The stream here should have started at the tail of slider (2) well, it kinda already does
04:02:405 (6) - ^ avoid starting your streams on weak/blue beats as a general rule. But that's the accentuated note so...
04:13:897 (1) - Suddenly easier? It's still kiai. lol kiai doesn't mean "harder than the rest of the song" it means a special part of the song

Similar mod points I leave for you to identify and consider yourself. Great song. Good luck!
