Hello AsakuraNe. I'm not good at modding but...
I think your map has so many problem.

SPOILER

First : Timing (because it very important before put note into song)
I think should be bpm 140 and offset 14532 (or somewhere in song)

Second : Difficulty
[Easy] Should lower hp drain,approach and overall
[Normal] May be look good

Third : Placing notes
[Easy] Should be more simple note with beat snap divisor 1/1 or up to you.
[Normal] May be look good

Tip1 : You can check your error with Aimod by ctrl+shift+A
Tip2 : You can change slider velocity in timing for note speed

You may learn for mapping and that all I can explain .

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Your mod was really helpful. I appreciate it. Also, thanks for the tips. Somehow, I discovered new controls and new easy mapping. Haha.

00:00:782 - You can start BPM here and the offset is 782.
What difficulty is it supposed to be?

Offset should be the same in all difficulties.
Instead of another timing section, use an inheriting section. This is how your 'Timing' page should look. When you do change the offset you will need to resnap all your notes. Once you're finished doing this, message back and I will fully mod this as it is unmoddable how it is now.

1. Kiai time should start at 00:48:782 (3)
2. Kiai time should end at 01:16:210 (1)
3. 00:47:710 should be your audio preview time.
4. 01:23:068 (1) - DO NOT SNAP SPINNER AND THE LAST NOTE TOGETHER! Place this at blue tick.
5. Try not to use aged mapping style, today is 2015!

• eZ

1. 00:01:067 (2,3,4) - They are unsnapped, fix them!
2. 00:01:746 (4) - After you fix them, place this slider at red tick.
3. 00:03:460 (4) - ^
4. 00:05:174 (4) - ^
5. 00:06:889 (4) - ^
6. 00:08:603 (4) - ^
7. 00:02:710 (1,2,3) - Move these to the right 1 tick.
8. 00:04:424 (1,2,3) - ^
9. 00:05:817 (1,2,3) - ^
10. 00:07:532 (1,2,3) - ^
11. 00:15:353 (2) - Don't create 'brinky' type of sliders for easy, new players might have a hard time
    Consider like that:
    
12. 00:17:067 (4) - Same thing
13. 00:23:496 (4,1,2) - Try blanketing!
    
14. 00:32:067 (1,2,3,4) - I don't know what's this for! 00:31:639 (1) have a sound.
    Consider like this:
    00:31:639 (1) do a 1/1 slider, 00:32:496 (1) 1/1 slider, 00:33:353 (1) a hit circle, 00:33:782 (1) 1/1 repeating slider.
15. 00:58:210 (6,7) - Nice blanket! Just that 7 is not curvy enough.
16. 01:01:639 (1,2,1,2,3,1,2,1,2,1,2,3,1,2,3,4,1,2) - What is this? Don't make new players struggle with this. Remap this thing!
17. 01:11:067 (1,2) - Try to blanket again!
18. 01:15:782 (3) - This slider should start at the end of Kiai that I've pointed out. Replace this with a hit circle then start the slider.
19. 01:15:353 (2,3) - After you did ^, stack both together and create a blanket with 4 (the slider).

• Normal

1. EVERYTHING IS UNSNAPPED, CHANGE IT NOW
2. 00:17:068 (2,3,4) - I would stack these
3. 01:17:068 (2,3,4) - ^
4. 00:20:496 (4) - I would conver this into 1/2 slider, 1/2 slider and a hit circle
5. 00:32:068 (1,2,3,4) - Again, unnecessary!
6. 00:39:782 (3,4) - ^
7. 00:57:782 (6,7,8,9) - ^
8. 01:13:210 (1,2,3) - ^

• Hard

1. 00:14:496 (1) - Make a good curve to blanket with 2
2. 00:32:067 (1,2,3,4) - Again
3. 00:47:067 (5) - Ctrl+G
4. 00:48:353 (2) - Place this at red tick (left) and replace this with a slider that ends at 3
5. 00:51:782 (2,3) - ^
6. 00:55:210 (2,3) - ^
7. 01:02:067 (2,1) - ^
8. 01:03:782 (1) - Nice curve, blanket with 2
9. 01:07:210 (1,2,3,4) - Again??
10. 01:12:353 (3,4,1,2) - No not again
11. 01:17:924 (4) - Blanket with 3
12. 01:20:496 (4) - Balance with 1,2 please

Was skirming around this thread, since I'll mod it, and I find best mod ever.
Try harder next time, saying really helpful things instead of "remap everything". That isn't helpful at all and shouldn't even receive kudosu. Heck, why is this even marked as helpful?
Next time, try to really help a mapper if you're going to mod. That's what mods are for, after all. Warned you.

Sorry about that.

Modding from queue since I like the song.
Now, let's do this.


[Overview]

1. Song title isn't even accurate (no, adding a bonus ~ isn't allowed unless that's on song title). Song artist and title need to be fully accurate for a map to be rankeable. If anything, song title field should look like this instead. Source: http://vgmdb.net/album/50424
   Done
2. You should place source (Akatsuki no Yona) in it's original language (japanese). Just copy-paste this thing in the "Source" field: 暁のヨナ
   Done
3. Also, you might need more tags. Here are some suggestions: op2 tv size version the girl standing in blush of dawn (just copy-pasted tags from this other set).
   Done
4. Consider reducing slider ticks to 1 on every diff, since slider tick 2 doesn't really fits this song as it's not really fast. Slider ticks are usually used as complements to follow secondary and audiable beats on the song. In case you don't even know how can you change it, this thing and Slider Velocity can be manipulated on this screen. Done
5. Also, why are slider velocity of all diffs the same thing? Things shouldn't be like that, actually. Easier diffs use lower values while harder diffs use higher ones, according to the difficulty (practically, I'm saying this value always varies). You'll need to change those values as things right now don't look good. I'll just recommend you some values, so if you want to use those, go on:
   
   1. Easy: 1.00 - Done
   2. Normal: 1.20 -Done
   3. With that way, things might work and Hard can keep the SV of 1.40. -Done

[Easy]

1. Okay, I'll try to give you some tips on how you can make nice Easy diffs. Thanks.
2. First of all, avoid at all cost the use of 1/4 beats (blue ticks), since an Easy diff shouldn't use those. 1/4 beats usually mark lots of complex rhythms. For example, let's take the very first pattern of your map: 00:00:782 (1,2,3) - Since song still doesn't play any beats (percussion/drums), trying to guess rhythm here is far very complex for beginners. In cases like those, you should use sliders instead, since they make things so easy. Uh... as for how to use slider, I think a rhythm like this works quite well. Sounds pretty and it's nice to play. Yeah, you might need to erase 00:01:853 (4) - but I'll explain this further below. Try this kind of pattern for any notes that are to be played like 00:00:782 (1,2,3) - Done
3. Second of all, notes a 1/2 beat apart. First thing, the 1/2 beats are commonly known as the red ticks, and they are known to be played at the half of main beats (white ticks) of the song (yeah, as if saying 1/2 beats wasn't self-explainatory enough). Now, to the main topic. An example of this are 00:01:853 (4,1) - some patterns like this. Using a 1/2 beat slider and then a 1/2 click aren't really beginner-friendly. 1/2 beats are also known to be ankward to play since they also cause complex rhythms (like the blue beats). Patterns where you use sliders like those (the thing I suggested you upside) are fine, since player is holding slider, so he doesn't have to click nothing, and is far more slow than sliders like 00:01:853 (4) - where you might think they'll end instantly and they don't, making you slider break. Having said that and the thing above, your first patterns 00:00:782 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - may look like this on the timeline. That thing is easier to play, and sounds pretty cool IMO. Done
4. I'll just mention this since I can, to give you a general overline on how can an Easy be mapped rhythmically-wise. Easy diffs usually map main beats (white ticks) in the way of 2/1 and some 1/1 (in actual english, it means you map every two white ticks and sometimes in every white tick). Seems this has changed quite recently (since the most recent Easies map more 1/1 than 2/1 ;w;), but this is a general overview on how "should" Easy diffs be mapped (for the best beginner-friendly experience). Since images speak better than what words do, I'll send you some screenshots (made them with mere circles, but using sliders in this fashion is okay too):
   
   This is how 2/1 beat mapping looks like

   
   And this is how 1/1 beat mapping looks like

   
5. Alright, third point on "how to make nice Easies": Beat Spacing. "What the heck is beat spacing?", you might ask. Well, it's fairly simple, actually. It's merely the constant use of Distance Snap to make beats be placed on play field fairly according to their position on the timeline. Take for example a pattern of this kind. You can see beats are close on playfield -and- on the timeline in the upper part of the screen, right? This is because I'm using the Distance Snap (DS for short) to place them. Now, let's try a bit more extreme example: something like this. Now, notes are further apart on the playfield, but why? Answer is simple: because they are far away on the timeline. Determining notes position through the timeline is quite important for Easy and Normal diffs, and DS is in charge of doing that automatically to avoid worries. So, you know this now. Use a constant DS (I suggest around 0.8~1.0 for this diff and maybe 1.0 on Normal) on Easy and Normal diffs and you'll rock. Fusing this with the 2/1 and 1/1 beatmapping suggestions above are the best way to make an awesome Easy diff that rocks!
6. Fourth point: Overlapping patterns are bad! Yes, you read that right! Patterns like 00:33:353 (3,1) - are really ankward to play for a beginner who absolutely doesn't even know notes can be placed one below another. When they'll see this they'll get confused, and will think: "uh... what should I do? there's a circle (reference to 00:34:639 (4) - ) but there's also a slider below the one I'm playing. What should I play first?" ...and since they won't know what to do next, they might miss circle, slider-break or both things (and maybe die while still thinking about it). So yeah, you need to avoid overlapping on Easy in this way, since it's not really beginner-friendly. And yeah, this also applies to stacked notes you placed during the whole Kiai time like 00:47:924 (1,2) - since players might play them quite fast, making them have bad accuracy or even missing second note because they're confused about the timing they should hit notes. changed it
7. Fifth point: Multiple reverses! Beginners know at this point the existance of reverses, that make slider return back to where it began. But they might not know this: "Can a slider have more than a reverse?" While somewhat experienced players (including myself) know this is actually possible, beginners might not know it, so having a second reverse is kinda ankward for them. So, you should avoid multiple reverses like 00:45:353 (2) - , especially on short sliders like 01:22:210 (1) - since they might not even know when slider will stop turning back and forth. - I'll remember that
8. Alright, now I'll try to say something about the New Combos (NC, for short; not to be confused with NightCore mod). NCs are used to indicate notorious changes in song's tempo, patterns and other things. They are, in most cases, consistent among the song, and are commonly applied every downbeat (the way we call the big white tick), but can also be applied every two downbeats (meaning you might apply a NC on a big white tick, but you don't apply a NC on the next one; and then you just apply it on the third downbeat that comes). So, take this as a suggestion. Make your NCs constant. Since this is an Easy diff, you should NC things every two measures to avoid making very short combos. Also, using same NC colors on a row, like 01:10:210 (1,1) - is restricted by the Ranking Criteria (RC for short) since the end of a combo and the beginning of the other isn't clear. Combos need to be clearly distinguishable between each other, and that's why this restriction exists. So, you need to check every NC on the map. Done

I don't have any energy to mod the following diffs, since I tried to make my mod as detailed and broad as possible, covering most issues of your Easy diff to help you improve it as much as possible.
However, I can say you can apply every suggestion I made up there on Normal (since it's really like Easy, but in Normals' case they are mapped using 1/1 beatmapping and 1/2 beatmapping; I already explained this so you shouldn't have much issues on this). So you can say I modded like two diffs in a single block

Since you're still new in beatmapping, you can PM via forum or in-game if you still have any doubts on what I tried to explain. You can also PM me if you want me to mod your Hard on another day (and most likely I will in a week if you contact me).

Okay, I hope this mod helps you in some way. Don't give up! Good luck!

Thank you for the directions and tips LixRei. It was really helpful, I'll remember all of them.
Also, Thanks for writing your mod as detailed and broad as possible. I respect that.

3. 00:19:639 (1,2) - and as same as above -Done
4. 01:02:496 (3) - finish should be more fitting at this front - Done

Thanks for looking at it again Euny.

1. I would recommend a better combo color which makes your map prettier. You can use the color that follow your BG color. Here is my suggestion:
   
   SPOILER

   
   Here is the code:
   

   [Colours]
   Combo1 : 255,192,0
   Combo2 : 180,75,83
   Combo3 : 223,128,32
   Combo4 : 242,24,57

2. Basically I suggest grid size 2 or 3 for a new mapper. Your current grid size is actually increase the difficulties of your mapping. It is just a suggestion for your next map.
3. Should the title of the song "暁の華"?

1. 00:07:639 (5) - Not pretty for a slider. I would recommend something like:
   
2. 00:16:210 (4) - NC. Usually we keep 4-5 combos in a easy diff. A 8-9 combo is clearly too long for Easy.
3. 00:17:924 (4) - NC
4. 00:19:639 (1) - del NC
5. 00:23:496 (4) - looks strange. why not make the same shape as 00:21:782 (2) -
6. 00:32:924 (1,2,3) - why not make a right triangle?
7. 00:35:067 (1) - Your sliders look too compressed. Try this:
   
8. 00:36:782 (3) - ^, try make changes yourself?
9. 00:55:210 (2) - too far from the previous one.
10. 00:55:639 (3) - ^
11. 00:55:639 (3,4,5) - Try use the same shape. These shapes look too random.
12. 01:23:067 (1) - a fin sounds too noisy here. Try default whistle.

1. You have a very good beginning. It's very creative and special. However sometimes it overlaps too much. I wonder if it is too difficult for a normal player. For example: 00:05:924 (3) - this one is highly overlapped by previous two sliders. I think you need a further consideration on the arrangement of these sliders.
2. 00:07:639 (1) - Move out. I don't see the meaning of overlap here.
3. 00:12:782 (3,4,1,2) - Why not use the same shape?
4. 00:23:924 (2,3) - too ugly. Why not try this one:
   
5. 00:25:639 (2,3) - ^
6. 00:41:282 (1) - Spacing. You actually have a lot of spacing problems in this diff. I would suggest you open distance snap to re-arrange all of them.
7. 00:57:782 (1) - ^
8. 01:22:210 (4) - I don't suggest a fin here. It sounds too noisy and don't make any sense.
9. Also the hitsound of the last spinner - the same as Easy diff.

1. 00:07:639 (1,2,3) - Make a straight line?
2. 00:09:889 (1) - start from 00:09:353
3. 00:47:924 (1) - overlap the previous slider perfectly?
4. 00:51:353 (1,2,3) - ^
5. Basically your most slider curved in an unnatural way. For example: 01:03:782 (1) - long slider like this one have too many dots that really twist your slider in a strange way. Also, some slider group does not have very fluent flow: 00:48:353 (3,4,5,) - These sliders curved in the same direction but different height which makes them really strange. I would recommend you see them as a whole.
6. Furthermore, your spacing sounds random imo. Take an example:
   
   These three objects have different spacing. But actually they have the exact same rhythm:
   
   Therefore, I don't see why you use different spacing here. Note that various spacing in same rhythm often occurs when the rhythm has very significant feature. It should not be used if the rhythm is very regular just as your song.
