#37 - Kurotto / Shimaguni Hybrid

   A hybrid between Kurotto and Shimaguni. I was playing around with some shading hybrid ideas today, and liked this puzzle enough to post here.

Difficulty: 3/5

Rules (Classic rules from Puzzle Rules)

Normal Shimaguni and Kurotto rules apply. When two regions border a kurotto clue, but not each other, they are allowed to contain the same amount of shaded cells.

Kurotto: Shade some cells so that clues represent the total size of the orthogonally connected areas of shaded cells that share an edge with the clue. Clued cells cannot be shaded.

Shimaguni: Shade a single group of orthogonally connected cells in each region. Shaded groups may not share a bold border. Each region must contain at least one shaded cell, and no two adjacent regions may contain the same number of shaded cells.
