M4M from my
queue.
Kimi o Suki de YokattaOkay so the first complain that I have (it's purely subjective but important nonetheless) is that you seem to be ignoring a big chunk of changes in the music by simply mapping it as a single pattern (00:15:731 (4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11) - for example, you could increase spacings between 00:16:071 (6,7) - or reduce spacings between 00:15:731 (4,5) - , since the music definitely goes up by a few pitches there.
Okay, now onto the real mod ignoring this complain all the way through.
00:33:458 - this is a good place for a spinner imo. The main instruments in the song fade away for a moment and a radio
01:17:094 (1) - end this slider on 01:18:117 - and start a 1/2 one from here 01:18:458 - for emphasizing all of what the song has to offer
01:29:708 (7,9) - I think this map needs more slider synergies like this one, it just makes the map flow so much better in general!
01:37:378 (3) - smoothen the sharp angle on the second half of the slider a little to bether emphasize the vocals slowly fading away
01:53:231 (2) - this slider feels out of place, the whole song seems to be really smooth and quiet so why would you choose the sharp aggresive angle?
02:09:594 (3,4) - I feel like turning this into a blanket slider would improve both visuals and flow there
02:11:299 (1,1) - this gap is a bit too high for this map, it isn't really expected after some of the things you've established before spacing wise (1/4 sliders had never any jumps right after them, it was always either a spinner or a short gap between patterns, there isn't really anything wrong with it, it's just that it can be offthrowing
03:01:924 (4,5,6,7) - how about you implement some more jumps there? I mean a back and forth motion doesn't really fit the kiai time whatsoever imo
03:30:731 (1) - the slider itself is okay but it doesn't get enough musical support to have that bend at the beginning of it imo
03:38:060 (8) - NC
03:40:788 (8) - ^
03:43:515 (8) - ^ you get the idea
03:47:435 (2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16) - why does this section suddenly change patterns? I mean there wasn't any distinct change in the music, so why not use the previous pattern? (which was emphasizing the song brilliantly btw)
03:58:685 (9) - NC
04:11:981 - this is a really important sound and imo should be clickable, consider putting three circles there instead
04:16:753 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17) - combo every second white tick would be better since the patterns are visibly divided into groups of 4
04:38:230 (1) - again, should be clickable
04:48:458 (7) - again the thingy about the red anchor here not fitting too much
04:51:867 (1,2) - I know it's right after the kiai time, but the song is significantly less dynamic here, why is the spacing there so big?
05:10:958 (1) - you know the deal
05:20:844 (4) - again, two sliders can be made out of this
05:32:094 (1,2) - calm part spacings again. this time I would just stack these up lol
05:51:867 (1) - this is really cool but imo needs a little more spacing between sliderhead and slidertail, I can safely say that many people are gonna have a bad time getting this right while playing with Hidden.
Good map, consistent and has little flaws.
A star from me.Good luck!
