Hello, here from a request from Sinnoh.
1/2/3/4
Easy00:14:704 (14704|1) - I'd like to see this LN the same length as 00:11:976 (11976|0) - and 00:08:567 (8567|0) - since it's essentially the same music. (Would need to remove 00:15:045 (15045|3) as well)
00:17:431 (17431|3,17772|0) - I think a more appropriate start for the LN here would be the last guitar sound at 00:17:772 - and ending at 00:18:795. This would potentially confuse less players when coming to this cluster of notes: (

https://puu.sh/xwJ0M/0cca74692d.png00:23:226 (23226|1) - Move over to 1 for hand balance.
00:33:454 (33454|1,33795|2,34136|3) - 3-2-3 would offer better vocal pitch relevance.
00:52:204 (52204|2,52204|1) - This probably doesn't need to be a double as much as 00:52:886 (52886|2,52886|3), consider deleting the note on 2.
00:54:249 (54249|3,54590|2,54931|1,55272|0,55613|3,55954|2) - Consider changing this to

01:03:113 (63113|3) - A double could go here considering the intensity of the note. Try this arrangement of notes to accommodate this:
https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/906374101:29:363 (89363|0) - Bring this over to 4 for better hand/pitch relevance, pretty dense on the left hand.
02:10:613 (130613|1) - Might need a double here.
NormalI have to agree with lith's previous comments, this diff could be buffed a little to improve the spread through the addition of more 1/6th notes. Places like the intro (00:00:386 - 00:16:749 - following the guitar closer) as well as various vocal spots like 01:04:022 - as well as in the kiai in places like: 01:27:545 - 01:28:226 - and 01:28:908, any many others which would make it more of an appropriate lead-in to the 1/6th-filled HD diff.
00:17:431 (17431|0,17772|2) - Same as Easy, make 00:17:431 (17431|0) - last only 1/1 and start another LN at 00:17:772 - for the rest of the guitar's held note.
00:32:431 (32431|3,32772|2,33113|1,33454|3,33795|2,34136|1,34476|0) - Same suggestion from easy.
00:38:567 (38567|0,38567|3) - I'd like to see the LN on 1 instead of 4 for better pitch representation from the held note in the song, but this is pretty subjective. Your choice.
00:55:613 - Could put another note here on 2.
01:25:499 (85499|3,85613|2,85726|1,85840|0,85954|3) - I feel like some of the notes here aren't really matching the song very well, making it pretty awkward, this would be a better alternative that fit with the music better:
https://puu.sh/xwM1Z/a894c77210.png01:40:954 (100954|1) - Make this 2 for hand balance.
01:52:204 (112204|2) - 2 as well ^ (also makes a nice parallel with 01:53:567 (113567|1,113567|3)
) (ACTUALLY if you move 01:53:567 (113567|3,113567|1) - over to 1-3 as well you have this wonderful descending pitch relevance and symmetry:

01:58:681 (118681|3,118681|2,119022|0,119022|1) - Ctrl-H these for better pitch. (01:59:363 (119363|3) - also move this to 4)
02:07:715 (127715|1) - Unsnapped note here. Should be on the 1/3rd?
02:10:613 - Could use a double here.
Unspoken WordsA fair amount of this diff has some hand balance issues, so most of the simplistic "move to x" suggestions will be those.
00:10:499 (10499|1) - Move over to 2, anchors too much on 3, with nothing on 2.
00:16:295 (16295|0,16408|1,16636|2,16749|1,16749|3,17090|0) - This could use some adjusting to make it a little more interesting and comfortable to play:
https://puu.sh/xwMdc/1f58df6bfa.png00:38:056 (38056|1,38141|3,38226|0) - This 1/8th seems really inappropriate here, not hearing anything for it in the music, and sticking to 1/6th just seems better in general:
https://puu.sh/xwMvT/a54f60fbd9.png00:40:840 (40840|2) - This note should also probably be snapped to 1/6th and not 1/8th.
00:42:204 (42204|0) - Move to 1 for hand balance.
00:46:636 (46636|1,46749|3,46749|2,46976|1,47090|0) - Try this out for better balance:
https://puu.sh/xwMFZ/06913ba670.png00:52:772 (52772|2,52886|3) - Move these over to 2-3. ^
00:59:249 (59249|1) - Move to 2. ^
01:08:397 (68397|2,68482|1,68567|0) - Same as above, sticking to 1/6th with a double at 01:08:567 - just seems more consistent.
01:15:726 (75726|3) - Move to 4, 01:15:954 (75954|3) - Move to 3.
01:24:476 (84476|1,84590|0) - These should probably be doubles if you want 01:24:136 (84136|0,84136|1,84249|3,84249|2) - to stick around, pretty much the same music.
01:25:272 - Consider putting a note here, the sound changes a bit.
01:43:226 (103226|2) - Move to 3. 01:43:908 (103908|2) - Move to 4.
02:00:954 (120954|0) - Move to 1.
02:04:022 (124022|0) - Move to 1.
02:11:863 (131863|3) - Move to 4.
02:12:772 (132772|1,132886|0) - These two notes aren't really mapped to anything I can hear.
Excellent song, and solid set. Call me back!
