The title is a pun: mashup. This puzzle was created as a Secret Santa present for Taco Dave or davmillar. I enjoyed creating this puzzle and I thought it was a unique enough idea that it should be in my catalog.

Rules:

Normal Kakuro and Masyu rules apply see below for more information.

Draw a loop through the centers of some white cells. Grey circles are either black or white masyu clues (except for the single given black clue). Circles with digits less than 5 are black clues (and the black clue contains a digit less than 5). Circles with digits greater than 5 are white clues. The digit 5 cannot be in circles.

Regardless of color, a circled digit X must repeat exactly X cells on the line away from the next nearest turn (nearest counterclockwise, clockwise, or both).

Masyu rules. Kakuro rules.

Small example of the confusing rule in action. We start counting the 6 cells from the top arrow and start counting 3 cells from the bottom arrow. The 3 could also go in the yellow cell, but it only needs to be in one of the two cells to fulfill the rule.
