hiiii bossssss chaos asked me to check the timing
could try a few more redlines in the intro, seems to shift a bit on my end (especially the very beginning is super off), this was what I got for a quick draft:
1130,594.059405940594,4,2,1,45,1,0
3506,615.384615384615,4,2,1,45,1,0
5966,598.503740648379,4,2,1,45,1,0
10754,600.600600600601,4,2,1,45,1,0
overall sounds pretty good though, the chorus onwards has some drifts but I think current is best for simplification!
General:
Meta:
Back in my day we didnt get to use eng pokemon meta but an official source finally dropped for this game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDg0T0hsJkc
So use Hearthome City (Day) in the eng field :)
Also optional but I believe you could swap the artist order to Hitomi Sato if you wanted, but current is also fine. https://youtu.be/GKOsbdMaw18?t=89
Audio:
Here's an ogg audio file which is slightly crisper https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BsFmDoDZPoHdBwaQKm83GzTDxkMgKvpc/view?usp=sharing
Timing:
Normal:
00:31:845 - I would say you can definitely map this here with a repeat or something instead of skipping
Hard:
00:05:645 (2,1) - Would suggest a repeat slider for when the beat comes back in personally, gap feels pretty empty
Elegance:
00:05:645 (2,1) - Would put at least a slider here in this gap, feels really empty otherwise
00:21:845 (3,4,5,6,7) - This spacing concept doesn't really make sense when the pitch is decreasing not increasing, would suggest to flip how this pattern progresses to better match the song
00:33:845 (1,2) - These feel kind of forced because the flow/visual just kind of moves in a straight line rather than providing a grouping between the two objects.
I tried something like this as a quick fix instead so the objects at least somewhat relate to each other:

00:40:245 (1,2) - ^ Here too

00:58:426 (1,2) - vs 02:00:826 (1,2) - feel kinda inconsistent spacing wise, I don't mind either way but I think these should use less drastically different spacing concepts for the same thing in the music

I used this line for the new file, the current drifts by at least 10ms over the song (thanks vgm) and is present in both audio files anyways so here ya go funny bpm:
348,400.086685448514,4,2,1,40,1,0

they're fine lol its also buffered by slider leniency beforehand so it plays easier than you'd think
the other ones have drum transitions which is why they're more intense. this is the weakest of the bunch in the music to me so thats why its not as intense in the map
I skipped the calmest part of the intro because for me it gives a better progression, since mapping it would have taken away emphasis from the buildup imo.
01:19:692 (5,6,7,8,9,10) - also like how the current pattern has kickslider flow from up -> down for each vocal phrase idk its cool tho
