Fixes Required -- chart is straightforward, easy to follow and has good progression throughout. It's a bit on the easy side for dumps, which is a plus, but there are some things that I think can be changed for consistency and to follow the vocals a bit more carefully.

- 15.629 should be a slightly different burst from the other two bursts after.
- You can probably place more 16ths from 24.805 to 25.334 (triplets starting at 24.805 and 25.158) for the echoing vocal, the 16ths from 25.334 to 25.423 don't feel necessary in comparison.
- Missing 24th burst at 29.746.
- I don't think the 32nds from 55.511 to 56.569 work well here, most of the bursts up to this point are fast and to held vocals, and there aren't any held vocals here.
- You can have a small 24th burst starting at 1:13.511 going into the minijacks, which would be consistent with what you've done up to this point.
- There's a cute down anchor at 1:18.099 but it feels a bit inappropriate given the rest of the bursts you've placed for similar syllables in the chorus. You don't really use the down anchor for the rest of the chart either, so I think getting rid of the anchor and using a repeated burst that starts on the down arrow would be fine enough.
- Potentially missing 32nd triplet at 1:26.393?
- Burst at 1:36.275 should start at 1:36.451.
- 1:37.334 should be a 32nd minijack.
- Bursts at the very end I think should be repeated to follow the vocals more accurately.

There might be layering errors that I missed, I'm just pointing out the ones that pertain to rhythms because those are the ones that I focused on. The chart seems fine and I think it'd be a nice little dynamic chart for lower-level players with some changes.

ACCEPT -FR-

[FR] This chart doesn't need any major fixes and is relatively good as is. However, I'd like to see at least some minor things fixed since I found a few quite quickly and I'm sure other judges will too. My biggest concern is the 16ths usage but since the abstract charting in this is pretty conservative, and given your style in this chart, I think they could be fine.

PR in the intro 8th jacks is inconsistent. For example, 0.808 is the same note as 0.161 and 1.337 so these should share a column. Also the jack ending on 3.984 is not the same note as the jack at 4.337. These feel pretty odd as is. I get that the intention here is to really isolate the vocals, but nothing stops you from sharing one column of the gray jumps with the 8th jacks, which would alleviate this PR constraint.

The 24ths are generally pretty fun and accurate, but the 16ths are a bit lacking in consistency and relevance. Would suggest going through those again real quick to ensure proper relevance. In the slow sections, the vocals often extend further than what is charted, which feels a bit underwhelming for the abstract charting. While your method isn't inherently wrong (ending the extended vocals on a clearly different column for emphasis), the more usual way is to drop the quantization to a lower speed (maybe gradually sometimes) as the vocals fade out. The way you have it is, imo, a bit rigid I would say.

Some precise elements:

14.217: This 434 motion on right hand doesnt quite match the vocals, which really differ from those at 12.806.

1:36.275: Feels odd to play because the "blond"(?) vocals start quite a bit after the 16th, so the 48ths start to seemingly nothing.

1:37.863: A bit abrasive and not the most relevant to the music. Would explore other patterning/quantization.

3:05.393: These should probably match 2:17.393 in terms of what is repeated (and maybe check the coloring too; I understand the 24ths but the rest I can't quite understand the color scheme and why it differs).

I really like the "pop" emphasis haha, even if it's somewhat of an obvious charting decision.

Accept

This is a damn fun file.

The ending (starting ~2:44.216) definetly gave me a lot more trouble than the rest of the file but I don't think it should get nerfed. Could maaaaayyyybe shuffle some stuff around to flow a bit better but it's minor imo. Frankly I'm a fan of this approach as is.

I'll put this as an Accept..... maybe just a bit under the Change Recommended flag for me.

Burst plays nice and pretty cute in terms of how you utilized in some ways - though I find few things that I'd think are flawed but ultimately alright in the end.

-24.805 - can place more 16ths in here, vocal echos are kind of the real deal in this song (without getting overemphasised).
- 1:36.275 - ehhhh this one is quite insignificant to start the burst here, might move it up by like the next 16th or so.
- Vocal motifs at the end do have some nice repetitions, so you can play it around to your advantage by making the bursts repeat to the exact same motif you have.

I find this fun, even in the lower end of the dumping spectrum, so I'd like to see this clarified.

Moving this to FR. Address the more notable stuff above for an Accept

Thank you for your submission to the dump batch! Don't forget dump files can also be sent/resubmitted to any regular batch.

Double-checking on this file. File is under 'Fixes Required' flag, but hasn't received a fix. Suggest making fixes soon, or it could face rejection. Will check back in 2-4 weeks.

Fixed some stuff based on notes.
