00:02:116 - tbh this felt weird to me since it's most natural to end with k on high note, why not k ddk d d k instead or smth? it feels much more natural this way as you did later on. going for playability instead of following the music here

00:16:169 - color change there felt weird since it isnt new melody note, ddk d d k makes more sense for this reason too abekobe with 00:14:116 (76,77,78,79,80,81,82) -

00:40:485 - if you would highlight offbeat piano right before, why not continue it here? https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/11009970 or smth done and added the note in another similar part

00:47:748 - though there is a vocal here, all the instrumental stops. i think a 1/1 break here would actually emphasize the song's structure better and make it more interesting than 1/2 spam. focusing heavily on the vocals here tho since it stands out from the rest of the song so tried have something easy and memorable to pair with it

ofc that applies to the other times this happens in this section. same

01:13:090 - maybe kdk instead since it would put emphasis on white and red tick specifically with vocal okay i guess

01:14:590 - vs 01:15:853 - you could do d then k to contrast the different vocal pitches the difference isn't that noticeable tbh

01:22:327 - for consistency with rest of kiai, you could make this a white to red triple (kkk k) instead. that way it would land over the held vocal like other triples in this part. i've used red->white for the most part tho and this isn't really worthy of an exception

01:27:932 - the random dkk pattern played a bit awkwardly since there is no blue tick emphasis or any pattern like that in the rest of the map changed to kdk

01:34:485 (1) - tbh i suggest to just end spinner on downbeat, this seems kind of forceduhhh doesn't feel that bad tbh keeping it for now

muzu

a great man once said, "i would like to raise the issue of continuous mapping in the muzukashii difficulty" tbh i don't get the problem with continuous mapping at all, especially in a set that has far lower note density than your usual map, why can't maps be a challenge of hitting more sparsely placed notes without breaks consistently ;w;

there is no 3/2 or greater break for the first 20 seconds of the map, which is the first 60 beats. even counting the slider as a break, the first 32 beats has no break. you should delete some note to create a break moment in order to follow the ranking criteria guideline, as 190 bpm is not really very low! for example, 00:06:853 - could be deleted without feeling too forced. or 00:16:958 - or something deleted alot of notes from 00:11:748 onwards, i'd like to keep the intro as it is ;w;

00:19:169 - i feel that this finisher does not really work well considering the change in guitar- would be better to highlight that rather than current imo. yes but idk how to make it better D:

00:23:274 - suggest delete this to focus more on vocal ofc boss

00:30:221 - following piano is more interesting imo, current rhythm is pretty boring just trying to have some constant snapping for players to get used with instead of following anything particular in the music

00:52:011 - 3/2 structure doesn't really fit the song well here. the structure is really 3/1 based, with emphasis on 00:52:958 - . but currently it isn't as emphasized by the pattern, using something that has strong division at 00:52:958 - instead would be better. changed to the same pattern as the one before it because cdh has no creativity whatsoever

01:13:800 - tbh this feels pretty out of place, since rhythm focus vocals it is better to move it 1/2 beat later to 01:13:958 - leaving it blank also felt really weird for me so added a note later instead

futsuu
00:02:590 - maybe you could make those all dk to show the higher pitch in 2nd note i'd like to have only monocolor 1/2s in here for difficulty reasons ><

00:10:327 (25,26) - it may be hard to play a slider then finisher for futsuu level since they would just button mash it, maybe you can end the slider 3/4 earlier? changed to a spinner instead

00:13:169 - i think you should fill these parts in. having lower rhythm density in this part, even though it is more intense than the intro, is strange. agreed

01:14:748 - did you forget d here? it feels really weird to have that 2/1 gap lol they have the same rhythm structure as 01:15:379 (85,86) -

aside from that, i suggest to increase rhythm density of kiai a bit for more contrast, atm it is pretty low so it doesnt feel more intense at all ofc

01:29:906 - the section changes here in song, but mapping changes at 01:27:379 - , that seems weird... add some filler till then maybe? never noticed this before, but it indeed feels really strange when i think about it, added some notes to transition better into the ending
01:28:327 - k, 01:28:958 - d for example

kantan

00:11:590 - 24/1 w/o 4/1 break time, suggest to add one at 00:17:274 - for example.v its one of the more intense parts followed by a relatively calmer section so i'd think that having slightly long sections with no breaks is justifiable especially since they're just two patterns going back and forth

00:48:853 (32) - maybe its more interesting to make these k instead of all d section.. ugh the higher diffs are all really don heavy so i'd like to reflect it here too

01:30:537 - k! sure thing just for you
