Breakfast at Anthony's after a streaming (k)night
Rules:
⚪ Normal Sudoku rules apply. Placing enough correct digits in the grid will reveal more of the story. No guessing is required.
⚪ Satsumas: Digits on dark orange lines must be odd or greater than 5 (or both).
⚪ Kropki Pairs: White dots indicate consecutive digits. Not all dots are necessarily given.
⚪ Cages: Digits in cages do not repeat and sum to the given total.
⚪ Anti-Knight: Digits a knight's move (in chess) apart must be different.

Very nice! Quite a brutal and rewarding solve. You need to be aware of a few theorems to start the puzzle, which resulted in a pretty break-in. After that it was a slow but entertaining journey. Thank you

Changed the text of the Orange-Line-Rule for clarification... each cell of a dark orange line must contain a digit, which is odd (1,3,5,7,9) or high (6,7,8,9) or both.

I feel that a comment from my side on the Satsumas rule is in order as well. As I read earlier comments I got that it meant to say "odd or above 5", but as the rule is defined the combination 1,3,4,5 would be correct as well because 4 is above the [line] average of 3.25. I fear that if this is taken into account that the puzzle is likely to have multiple solutions.

To clarify the Satsumas rule, since it isn't clear to me in the previous comments, The digits on this line have to be odd or above the average of all numbers, meaning 1-3-5-7-9-6-8; not above the average of the values of the line, (1-3-4-6 would be valid since the average of the line is 3.5 and both 4 and 6 are above it, but this is incorrect)

Hi Olima
Can you please elaborate on What is above average rule?
--
olima: The average of the digits 1 to 9 is 5, so digits on a dark orange line must be odd or high - or both.
- ah thanks. I was lookig at above average of orthogonal digits and it wasnt making sense
