The battle theme from Persona 4.
Compared to others, I've only recently discovered Persona 4, and frankly I had to map this once I played it.

Taiko Difficulty by: Yunacat

Now I face out. I hold out.
I reach out to the truth of my life.
Seeking to seize on the whole moment to now break away.

Oh God let me out!
Can you let me out?!
Can you set me free from this dark inner world?!
Save me now!

Last beat in the soul!

Full submitted again. Hopefully it's fixed.

Yeah it's working.
I started to notice the whistles in easy a little bit. The claps fit in great though.

Overall it's a fun song and a fun map. I kind of wish it were another minute longer.


And the song is stuck in my head now....

And done. Moved to Pending.

Star for a good song!

Looks nice~ :D
Hope you'll add an Insane though because Hard is really pretty basic
Only thing that kinda bothers me is 00:53:343 (12,1) in Hard difficulty. Just doesn't feel right to me...
Maybe try moving 00:53:344 (12) 1/2 beat back (to 00:53:521) and starting the spinner on the next 1/4 beat so that beat 12 acts as a pre-spinner note on the heavy beat?
Also, you might want to add "shihoko hirata" to the tags. She's the singer.

Hey~

Here is my nazi modding :D

Hello :->

General:
Why didn't you map all song? That is not hard to finish that 6 seconds that left :)
Audio Lead in 3 seconds is a bit long :/ 1,5 seconds is enough here,I think.
Maybe you should add in 'Tags' names of the main characters of P4?
we already spoke about offset here,so I am waiting..)

Easy:
Hp Drain Rate seems to be a bit low..better to put 3. And the same thing I can say about AR : 3 looks better.
I can't find here any problems.

Normal:
better to put here AR 4,I think...
00:01:285 , 00:02:697 - hmmm,this is not a very good idea to end this sliders like this. better to end you first slider in : - 00:01:991 , and the second in : - 00:03:403.
00:43:638 , 00:45:050 - and I can say here the same words,as I said before ^ If I were you,I'd end first slider in : - 00:44:344 and the second in : - 00:45:756

Hard:
wow,what a high Hp Drain for a Hard diff! Hp Drain 5 is enough here.
00:53:697 - ninja spinner is very bad,even for Hard difficulty.
01:16:109 - ^


Well,that is all!

Removed countdown.
Made changes to the Song Difficulty Settings.
Fixed the sliders on Normal.
I kept the spinners on Hard though. If someone else tells me to remove them, then I'll consider.

If you need an insane I can make one for you~

Also modding this.
Zekira
Offset: 1290

EDIT: 5000th post weeee
Yunacat
Finished my difficulty! There's only one thing about it though. I changed the offset to 575. Try it! D: I was about to post what I had before but I saw Zekira's post about the offset and realized it wasn't changed at all. I tried the offset, but it 1) messes what I made up, 2) comes on the kiai, not the first notes, and 3) since it skips the first note, anything before the offset is adjusted improperly o-O I looked at the other difficulties and they pretty much start on the same note mine does (and similarly at that) so 575 seems to work well. Not that the other one was entirely wrong, it's just this one works a whole lot better.

Also, side note: I agree with Giorgos on the "ninja spinner" in Hard. I'd put a slider or something there. The spinner is just too short/fast... I understand why it's there, but yeah... x:

(A mod and a difficulty in one post?)


Anyway, here's mine!

The composer of the song was Shoji Meguro.
Shihoko Hirata just sang the song. I also added Shihoko Hirata in the Tags.
Selee
In osu, I believe, the vocal should be the artist instead of composer.
Louis Cyphre
DistopiaGround, music by Demetori, that means that Demetori is the artist? Nope. Change to Shihoko Hirata please.

Please reply to this mod saying what you didn't fix (and what youy did) and why. Remember these are all suggestions.
Also, if you have any question, feel free to ask me in-game :)

General
  1. The timing felt really off while testplaying. Unfortunately, I find it fine in the editor, so I can't help =x
Easy
  1. The difficulty settings seem rather high for an Easy. Mind reducing them a bit ? =x
  2. The slider tick rate is too high and the slider speed too low. This results in invisible ticks (like 00:11:878 (2) - ). Change the tick rate to 1 ?
  3. I find the hitsounds to be quite loud.
Normal
  1. 00:00:584 (1,2) - What a difficult beginning for a Normal o.o starting off with stacked 1/2 at 170 BPM is rather harsh... If you want to keep the 1/2, at least make a slider.
  2. 00:10:466 (2) - The two repeats might surprise (they did surprise me)... Maybe try making a pattern that warns there are four beats so the next repeat sliders are less surprising ?
  3. 00:26:878 (1,2,1) - That's very nazi, but they aren't spaced evenly. It made me hesitate while playing, I thought the rhythm was 3/2.
Hard
Seems fine. I find it really hard for a Hard, but it's just an opinion.

Insane
seems fine

Easy
  1. The difficulty settings seem rather high for an Easy. Mind reducing them a bit ? =x -1 to all of them except Circle Size
  2. The slider tick rate is too high and the slider speed too low. This results in invisible ticks (like 00:11:878 (2) - ). Change the tick rate to 1 ? Done
  3. I find the hitsounds to be quite loud. They're the same hitsounds with the other diffs.
Normal
  1. 00:00:584 (1,2) - What a difficult beginning for a Normal o.o starting off with stacked 1/2 at 170 BPM is rather harsh... If you want to keep the 1/2, at least make a slider. Changed to slider.
  2. 00:10:466 (2) - The two repeats might surprise (they did surprise me)... Maybe try making a pattern that warns there are four beats so the next repeat sliders are less surprising ? I think they're fine. Normals should add a little bit of difficulty.
  3. 00:26:878 (1,2,1) - That's very nazi, but they aren't spaced evenly. It made me hesitate while playing, I thought the rhythm was 3/2. Fixed. Didn't see that xD

Hi there! Please feel free to have a very happy and energetic super fun mod of yumminess! We're here to make your day better!

[Easy]
01:24:937 (4) - This slider slightly overlaps with (3) and is really close to going off-screen, so if you could put it somewhere else that would be cool.

The rest looks really cool! So have a delicious five-pointed twinkly object! Have an optimistic and WONDERFUL day ~
JoJo
That's a little challenging to mod an MAT's map.xD
So I guess just some suggestions.

Red-You must fix it.
Blue-You'd better to fix it.
Black-Suggestion only.

[Easy]
Just some spacing problems imo, feel free to ignore them.
00:05:878 (2,1) - 1.24x
00:59:525 (2,1) - 1.22x
01:10:819 (2,1) - 1.34x
01:22:113 (2,1) - 1.22x

[Hard]
AR+1 imo.

[Yuna's Taiko]
The only thing mentioned me : SliderMultiplier 1.40000000596046 ? (Open osu file in text mode)

Don't like nazi so no grid mod.

Good map~ Can't find something more. @.@

No kds.

For mod4mod.
And I told you, you found me on my mod queue before you are MAT. =]

[Insane]
00:36:231 (7-2nd) - Finish?
00:58:642 (7) - The finish of the slider isn't right on the top of 00:57:407 (1).
01:16:113 (10-2nd) - Finish sound better.
01:25:819 (1) - Finish is better? Like Hard.

[Hard]
00:06:584 (5) - Remove finish
01:16:113 (10-2nd) - Finish sound better, like Insane

The finish started on 00:20:878 to 00:42:937 is putting missy. It is my felling but doesn't have much problem.

[All]
You did much better than when I quited a period.
Love it. And good luck STAR.
(After that, I think it is not enough to get a mod4mod)

[Talked on IRC] 00:12:054 (5) - [Nazi] How about move 1 grid right?

[Insane]

[Yuna's Taiko]
00:08:701 (12) - kat?
00:11:525 (10) - kat?
00:17:172 (10) - ^
00:53:172 (26) - ^
00:54:937 - Don't cut Kiai please :3
01:03:231 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18) - Spinner would be better ;_;
01:05:348 - Move this Kiai end into 01:06:231
01:11:525 (30) - kat?
01:34:466 - Reduce volume little ;_;?



meow :3
Yunacat
Arien!!! :3

I changed some of the hitsounds you mentioned except the repeated one (it doesn't sound right with a kat, the others do though). I already mentioned the kiai time wasn't set by me. I don't think I should change it. I did change the really long stream of notes into a spinner cuz it did work better. I reduced the volume at the end for the spinner, and in the end changed the parts with max volume down just a little because it all sounded too loud.

Joshua, I fixed the slider in the .osu file, though it seems to be a common thing the editor does to files (after glancing around a bit). Doesn't really change anything though. ;P

All the maps check out nicely, the only concern I have is the Taiko map continues on slightly into the fade out at the end of the mp3 which doesn't sound great while playing. You might want to consider ending that difficulty slightly earlier.

(Wondered what happened to animask's difficulty too)
Call me back after any fixes and I will rank~
Yunacat
The only thing I hear that might go into the fade-out is the spinner (which fades out too). Could you clarify what point you are referring to, James?

FWIW, I think it sounds fine.
It's up to Yunacat though whether to change or not.
James2250
Yeah I was mainly talking about the spinner, I am guessing you want to keep it as it is then? (which is fine)
Yunacat
Yeah, I don't see anything wrong with it. o-o
James2250
Ok, sorry for the slightly late reply but if you are fine with the end of taiko then everything looks good

Only Insane appears to be ranked. Bug or some shitty problem with ranking? Could be one and the same, and maybe it's just me.
