I think the Futsuu is too much of a step up from Kantan difficulty wise. You've gone from scarcely using 1/1 in your Kantan to pretty liberal 1/2 use in your Futsuu. As such, most of my suggestions will be to try to reduce the difficulty a little.
In the intro, you start off mapping to the piano, using 1/2 triplets, but then at 00:12:577 when the drum comes in you've switched to mapping to its less intense rhythm, creating a weird effect as the music gets more intense yet your mapping gets calmer. Try something like this

Applied!for the start, then when the drums come in something like this
would match the simplicity of the drum beat while still increasing the intensity from the previous section. —
Also doneFor 00:20:925 - 00:37:621 I think that many of the 1/2 patterns you've used are a little over the top. For a Futsuu like this I'd recommend trying to stick to 1/1 and above wherever possible. The only 1/2 I'd keep for this section are doubles at 00:26:403 - 00:30:577 and 00:33:969. (If this is unclear let me know and I'll get some pictures for you).
00:37:621 - 00:54:316 has the same problem. There are a few places here where 1/2 doubles will fit the piano sounds well but I think a lot of the 1/2 patterns you've used are too much here. You could however have a 1/2 triplet at 00:52:230 to match the piano which I think would sound pretty neat. —
Agreed for this and the previous paragraph. I’ve gone ahead and nerfed it, and applied your triplet suggestion - it is nice!I think you should be mapping to the drum at 01:06:838 considering you did when the same drum sounds are heard in the intro. —
Hmm…Now that you point it out, I’m thinking that maybe the drum section in the intro should be remapped to fit the piano more - especially since 3/4 sometimes feels too tricky for Futsuu.Add a note at 01:20:925 ? Also, as in the Kantan, I don't like the finisher at 01:22:490 . —
Added the note.The Kiai kind of has the same issue as the previous sections - the 1/2 patterns are a little too much. I suggest turning the quads into xx x patterns and the 5-plet at 01:48:056 to a pair of doubles (like it is in the muzu). —
Nerfed the whole kiai. Applied your suggestion to the 5-plet.I've nerfed the Futsuu a bunch, removing a lot of the 1/2s. I'll probably remap the introduction section after the drums begin, too.
