The Good, the Bad and the Circled by Skeptical Mario
Rules:
Fillomino - Divide the grid into regions and enter a number into each cell. A number in a cell indicates the size of that cell's region. Regions of the same size cannot share a cell edge.
Region Counting Circles - The number of circles in a region indicates the quantity of regions of that size. For example, if a region of size 5 contains three circles, the puzzle has three regions of size 5 (and each one must have three circles). Regions with no circles are not constrained by this rule.

I hope you enjoy the puzzle! :-)
Solution code: For rows 4 and 8, enter the number of sequential cells in each region. Use no delimiter for regions and a dash - for rows, e.g., 2234-222122

Loved this one! It’s been a blast to progress through the trilogy and think about the circle clues in different ways. This one, like the others, had many satisfying deductions and great flow

A fitting conclusion to the series. Much easier once I had the correct reading of the rules, but still very challenging, and a lot of fun.
