This is the latest puzzle in my Parity Mirror series.
Previous ones include Parity Mirror, Stare Directly at the Sum, and Clearly or Darkly.
It is more tricky than the last couple and took a lot longer to set.
Some great setters have recently made threir own Parity Mirror puzzles.
There is this 10-Line Parity Mirror from the Cogito.
Also, Glum Hippo made a Parity Puzzle Mirror that is very nice.
Thanks to Miky and Playmaker for testing this last version, and a lot of people for testing previous versions of this puzzle.
Rules:
- Normal Sudoku Rules Apply.
- Arrows: Digits along an arrow can repeat, sum to the circled digit.
- Parity Mirror: Odd/Even parity is reflected across the blue line.
For example: if R6C2 is odd, R2C6 must also be odd.
Solution code: Row 6 (9 digits no spaces)

I would also say 4/5... but what a splendid idea, presentation, execution. Top marks from the hippo!!

Beautiful and satisfying puzzle! Despite some trickiness, the parity trick was really strong in this one, every single usage of it brought back some lovely results and I enjoyed how the puzzle started to collapse too x)

Thanks as always for testing my puzzles and being awesome!
