General Comments:All hitsounds contain a large amount of null audio in their respective waveforms that take up unnecessary space in the song folder and may cause lag on older PCs - I fixed them up for you
here Difficulty-Specific Comments: Lost Grapes- 01:23:676 (3,4) - Spacing here is unexpectedly low and I find this very easy to overshoot. I'd move 01:23:846 (4,5,6) to x-352, as this gives the strong sound at 01:24:187 (7) a bit more emphasis too
- 04:22:142 (2,3,4) - I find this slight movement forces me to stop halfway to avoid overstreaming, so it spoils the flow for me. Moving (3) a bit to the left, say x-160, so it's similar to 04:22:823 (6,7) -'s spacing would help
- 04:44:982 - From here to the end of the kiai pretty much all the patterns are on the left side of the screen which limits your flow potential and takes away from the emphasis of this intense section since there is little variety. Ctrl+H 04:48:221 (4,5,6,1,2,3,4) and move to x-232 would give you a bit more variety without compromising playability
Just as an aside, I felt that 05:39:379 (4,5,6,7) might be incorrectly snapped - they generally sounded a little early to me at present. I asked for a few opinions and we agreed that they aren't
perfect, but we feel that leaving them as they is best to avoid needlessly complicating things with new timing sections and whatnot. Just thought I'd include it for if we need to come back to it later

is there a reason its called lost grapes tbh
diff name sounds really weird lo
I think this is a reference to Minoriko Aki's title as the "Goddess of Abundant Harvests" (plus the BG context, hence grapes), and the "lost" part refers to the lyrics of the song:
"道無き未知をゆく 裸足で駆けてゆく"
which apparently translates to "I’m running barefooted, towards the unknown road" - essentially the song is about finding one's way back home/to a loved one/something like that. As a diff name I admit it's a little more abstract than what I would normally go for, but I can see it working here. If Kyuare / next BN want to go for something a little different I'd be happy to try and find something though.

Anyway, back on topic, call me back once you've addressed the above for #2 /o/
