Octopus Dreams

An Even Inequality Nonconsecutive Renban Sudoku

I made this puzzle to demonstrate the interesting tension between the Renban and Nonconsecutive constraints. Starting out with 3 star difficulty because I think it solves fairly easily once the break-in is discovered. Hope you enjoy it!

Rules

Normal Sudoku rules apply. Place the digits 1 through 9 in each empty cell. Digits must not repeat within the same row, column, or box.

Orthogonally adjacent cells must not contain consecutive digits.

Digits along each renban line must be a set of consecutive digits in any order, and must not repeat.

Cells on either side of the inequality symbol must have values that abide by the indicated relationship.

Cells with a filled square must be even.
