I mean the story mode is bad because even on easy mode they make you do ridiculous challenge songs that'll hurt your hands so fast it's insane. and the second to last boss is the worst because so much stuff happens on screen it's crazy. this boss especially worst boss in the series-
A list to show what i mean. https://taikotime.blogspot.com/2011/06/brawl-among-7-islands-taiko-ds-2-boss.html
hopefully this post isn't too awkward or anything I'm not great at explaining things tbh.
 
I had to look up what the heck this game even is. IT IS Japanese A.F.

Sounds par for the course when it comes to games unreleased in the west.

Luckily the story modes after this game are not as bad.

On easy mode it's not too fast but on triple speed or higher then it's a challenge. the video was on oni difficultly basically the hardest one in the series . and the bosses do use hazards or in that oni boss one blocking the view.
 
Oh god, just what i like ::smirk1
 
that didn't look hard at all compared to the Taiko games i've played later on
keep in mind i play a LOT of rhythm games, beatmania, djmax, DDR, pop'n, etc.
was that on easy mode in the video? looked really simple note pattern wise
i've played this game through the story on a harder setting.
this was MUCH harder to do (spotlight effects wise) i had to practice the normal song outside story mode a few times to beat it properly (not my video just using the linked page's video)


but you wanna talk about some bullshit check this out, especially at 1:02 mark

here's another (prob one of the hardest songs)
1423 notes in 2min 26 seconds, 9.75 notes a second average. i can't even press buttons that fast let alone with the real taiko drum controllers...
