Mitsunori Ikeda ft. Aimee B - Fallen Angel (El Poco Maro Remix)
"Rebirth"

Foreword:
This is my first mod ever. I hope that my input is appreciated! Over all, this is a very strong map with a song that I quite enjoy. There are only a few weaker spots within the map that are not consistent with the formatting and method that I saw used in the rest of the it. This kind of inconsistency can be used correctly if meant to emphasize certain parts of the song, but in the times that these inconsistencies appear, I could not find what was trying to be put forth and emphasized. More on that later.

Critique:

1. 01:16:576 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - I think that this series of notes is a little bit too jumpy. The flow of the map is broken too frequently and that break in flow is not used to emphasize any point or hit-sound on the map. During the majority of your map, you will only break the flow like this if there is a part of the map that is worth emphasizing. For example, during most of the sequence 01:26:122 (1) - 02:32:599 (2) you will vary the spacing of jumps between notes or break the flow between a series of notes in order to emphasize the clap hit-sound that you use. This doesn't all mean that the section in question here has to be slowed down or anything. I understand that you wanted a sort of build up to 01:27:485 (1) . But I think the breaking of flow could have been done in a way which either matches the hit-sounds you use or matches the song.

I'm not sure but I think you're talking about an old update. Let me know.

1. 01:02:258 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1) - This specific series of notes was very well executed in that it matched both the vocal and instrumental tracks of the song which seemed to have equal power in that part of the song. This is not to say that you matched both parts perfectly, but you transitioned from one to another flawlessly. There is another part of the song where this same equivalence between vocal and instrumental strength is reached, and I believe that it was not mapped as well as this series.

It often happens when you pick up a map you left aside 2 years ago, players are bound to notice changes in mapping flow during some parts. Tried my best to have something consistent throughout the whole song though.

1. 02:54:758 (7) - From this point until the break in the song, there are moments in which it is hard to tell what you are trying to map to. (Examples: 03:05:667 (1,2,3,4,5) - 03:05:667 (1,2,3) - )At some points you are going purely for vocals, which is fine, but then other times you seem to switch off of it. I think its much harder to incorporate both components of the song, but if you can pull it off then that would probably turn out amazing. I have a few suggestions to clean things up a bit, but I'm sure you can figure a way to work out any remaining kinks.

Yeah, I mapped more to the vocals now. This is actually a part I left unchanged from 2011. I did remap the whole thing days ago but thought that the old version played betterl even though it didn't follow the vocals as well.

Personal Preferences:

1. 04:08:224 (4,5,1) - It seemed odd that there was no whistle anywhere in these three notes. I think the sound from the song kind of overpowered the default hit-sounds, so there was nothing to really make that triplet stand out from the rest of the map.
   
   Hmm I'd rather leave that unchanged.
   
2. 04:56:803 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - These two triplets just seemed out of place to me. Having one of the two there probably would have been fine, but I didn't feel that the whole "stop, jump, stop, jump" motion that they invoked really worked in this context.
   
   
   Yeah, I'll change that in the future.

00:00:203 (1) - J'pense que tu peux peaufiner ce slider ! Nazi!
00:38:214 (7) - Stack le sous le cercle 3. C'est volontaire

01:28:157 (5,6) - Tu pourrais curv ces sliders ? Je trouve que ça rend mieux ! Genre ça Je les ai curv légèrement
01:42:475 (4,5) - Blanketmy dear !
01:57:987 (6,7,8) - Ce triplet est bien placé ! Mais si tu place un slider , c'est varié ! C'est vrai mais apres je vais devoir en mettre d'autres un peu partout pour compenser.
02:02:589 (8) - Ici , je trouve que ce slider n'est pas trop en rythme. Selon les instruments , j'aurai placé deux cercles (stacks ou pas stack , c'est toi qui vois) J'ai mis un slider pour alléger un petit peu vu l'abondance de notes juste avant.
02:33:271 (5,6,1) - Pourquoi augmenter le spacing ? La distance est la même dans la timeline ! Ca suit plutôt bien la voix je trouve.

1. 01:27:475 - Why no kiai? At least just the burst or something :/

1. 00:02:589 (6,7,8,9,1) - I feel these are way too close to 00:01:907 (2,3,4) - set
2. 00:04:634 (2,3,4) - Improper stack
3. 00:12:646 (2) - Move to x:300 y:92 for better circle formations?
4. 00:13:328 (7) - Stack to 00:12:475 (1) - ? Somehow it flows better if you do so
5. 00:16:566 - I feel it weird that you suddenly change patterns from triplets into 1/4 sliders+1circle here. I found it better if you could keep pattern consistency as you're changing into this pattern for a short time (just until 00:18:782 - )
6. 00:21:509 (8,9) - I don't like this stacking. I prefer a jump here, you know, because of that sudden atmosphere change on music, my suggestion is you put (8) on 00:20:657 (1) - so it jumps and flows better.
7. 00:23:725 (3) - If you put this on x:440 y:272 it'll maintain flow consistency better, trust me
8. 00:29:180 (2,3,4) - Imperfect stack
9. 00:32:418 (6) - Put on x:344 y:280 for better spacing against (7) and (8)
10. 00:34:805 (4,5,6) - Ctrl+G and it'll flow better, yup
11. 00:43:072 (8) - Kinda slightly out of place, I guess
12. 01:16:566 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - This is ugly imo, why don't you just form a 6-star formation here?
13. 01:19:293 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - I hope you can do something about this as this flows bad
14. 01:26:623 (4) - Remove clap? Sounds outta place imo
15. 02:24:578 (6) - Looks like out of place, how about x:344 y:192
16. 02:36:168 (2) - Wow, 7.5x jump, are you sure?
17. 03:13:668 (7,1) - Stack please, to differentiate with previous circles as this is placed on red tick
18. 05:47:930 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,1,2,3) - Imperfect circle stream formation

Red is unrankable and must be fixed.
Pink is you should apply this to any similar notes/parts/patterns/whatever it was stated on it.

1. 01:27:475 - Why no kiai? At least just the burst or something :/

Think that the single SB pulse does the job well enough. I don't really like using seperate kiais in a song, I'd rather save it for the best part which is where the current kiai is used.

I found it better if you could keep pattern consistency as you're changing into this pattern for a short time (just until 00:18:782 - ) The intro portion is a little intense so I thought toning it down just a little bit before the whole slider triplet slider triplet combo. It's a recent change actually and while I agree it's less consistent, it doesn't break the flow either.
6. 00:21:509 (8,9) - I don't like this stacking. I prefer a jump here, you know, because of that sudden atmosphere change on music, my suggestion is you put (8) on 00:20:657 (1) - so it jumps and flows better. That's pretty good

15. 02:24:578 (6) - Looks like out of place, how about x:344 y:192 ok
16. 02:36:168 (2) - Wow, 7.5x jump, are you sure? This is one isn't too bad, my last update had the jump between the first two return sliders at 10+ or something, which I did fix
17. 03:13:668 (7,1) - Stack please, to differentiate with previous circles as this is placed on red tick.
18. 05:47:930 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,1,2,3) - Imperfect circle stream formation edit mode nazi

If I mod more all I can find are mostly nazi issues which may be too subjective as I see your mapping style had balancedly developed. I mean, it's your mapping style anyway, not mine, so you decide what looks best, what plays best. Maybe if there are non-design issues I might be able to point out some less subjective suggestions but since there are almost none, then there's nothing to do about it. I'll leave you the rest.

Sorry for such a shit mod )-: This map is way too ready for rank.

Hello o/
Random mod.

Cette map on me l'avais passé en Multi il y avait 2 ans voire plus, et en la regardant de + près, je me demande si t'as tout remappé tellement la diff entière est cool x) ravi de voir la map en pending o/

Ascension

1. 00:08:043 (6,1) - j'aurais préféré qu'il soit unstacked pour une question de fluidité dans la lecture de la map, après c'est pas grave si tu veux le garder ça reste cool.
   - pareil 00:09:407 (6,7) - ^
2. 00:16:907 (2,3) - l'idée du slider qui fini sur un tick bleu me semble mauvais car tu dodge cette note 00:17:078 où le slider devrait finir normalement.
   - pareil 00:18:271 (2,3) - Eh, tu es le deuxième a m'avoir fait la remarque, peut être que je vais vraiment devoir changer.
3. 00:22:873 (4,5) - je comprends pas trop l'antijump ici, c'est l'endroit idéal pour mettre un jump imo surtout pour une note entre 2 sliders, tu l'as mis le jump ici : 00:25:600 (5,6) - c'était intentionnel ou juste une négligence ? Difficile d'expliquer mes choix d'utiliser des anti jumps si ce n'est l'intention d'ajouter de la variation dans mes patterns.
4. 00:50:316 (3,4) - pas trop fan du placement pour les 4 sliders, parce qu'on voit clairement que le spacing entre 2 et 3 est plus proche, ce donne un effet bizare d'antijump quand on joue, pourquoi pas les mettre tous avec le même spacing, je veux dire, jouer avec les rotate 90) etc. ? Techniquement, ces sliders partagent déja le meme spacing entre eux (2, 3 et 4)
5. 01:41:112 (1) - me semble un peu bizare cet antijump par rapport à ce que tu as mis après, pourquoi pas le mettre plus vers le bas comme ça ?
   
   SPOILER

   
6. 02:53:384 (1,2,3,4) - *nazi* pourquoi pas décoller les sliders, je veux dire ne pas les overlap, je trouve ça un peu bizare de mettre des 1/4 sliders comme ça overlapped si tu veux les mettre en valeur avec la distance. Je suppose que je peux les séparer un peu plus
7. 03:13:157 (6,7) - je vois que tu suis la vocal, mais ici il y a une polarity issue, c'est pas vraiment grave ni important grâce à l'AR, mais pourquoi ne pas faire ça à la place ? Je veux volontairement marquer une pause à ce moment la
   
   SPOILER

   
8. 03:40:600 (2) - Je l'aurais mis plus haut du genre y=44, pour une question d'espacement, je veux dire, de variation d'angle et de flow. Et il se joue mieux imo je l'ai poussé légèrement vers le haut
   
   (04:01:737 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - je crois que je vais te le piquer ce pattern /me runs far away)
   
9. 04:59:862 (3,4) - J'aurais plutot vu ce stream avec 2 sliders 1/4 pour les wubwub.j'préfère mes notes!
10. 05:03:953 (6) - *nazi* clap missing. Je porte de l'importance aux hitsounds donc merci beaucoup lol
11. 05:06:509 (6) - Unstack le pour mettre en valeur le clap d'après comme tu l'as fait pour les patterns d'après. Un pti stack de temps à autres ne fait pas de mal!

Voilà j'espère que ce random mod t'aideras o/
Good Luck.

This map is a little different from the old version I had . juuuuuust a little


Some quick things I noticed:

02:09:748 (1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3) - I'd love to see more of these transitional hitsound patterns throughout the map. ♥ I've only hitsounded to the song and sadly it's the only place where it does that. Unless you can show me otherwise.
02:14:350 (3) - reverse this slider to greatly improve cursor movement and flow. Yeah
02:23:725 (2) - ^same ok
00:29:691 (5) - missed normal sampleset switch here? yes
03:26:793 (3) - I'd prefer a more consistent gap here, like this: http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/1627077 this way the transitions for this one and the following combo feel more natural. I want to keep it the way it was
03:32:248 (4) - reversing this slider will improve the generall flow and the transition into the rectangle pattern 03:33:441 (5,6,7,8) - yeah
04:14:180 (2) - missed clap? yup

Nothing to report on the SB I presume?

1. scale your 16:9 images to 960x540 (including your BG...because it is also used in the SB)
2. use 0.9x scaling in the .osb for everything as standard size (S,0,<time of first appearance of the sprite>,,0.9)
3. group your unnecessarily multiplicated sprites into one and use the key frames on the same image (fade to 0 if you don't use it for some time before ==> after
4. remove sprites from your .osb that are not longer in the folder ("HalfFlash")
