Red + Blue = Purple

Rules: Normal Sudoku rules apply. Yin-Yang: Color each cell in the grid either red or blue, such that no 2×2 square is monochromatic and the cells of each color form a single orthogonally connected region. Lines:
- Every line that passes through at least one red cell is an alternating-parity line (i.e. each pair of consecutive digits along the line must include one even and one odd digit).
- Every line that passes through at least one blue cell is a region-sum line (i.e. box borders divide the line into segments with equal sums; these sums may vary between lines).
- Any line that passes through both red and blue cells is also a renban (i.e. it contains a set of consecutive, non-repeating digits in any order).
If you enjoyed this puzzle, you might like a different (and slightly more difficult) take on `lines of unknown nature' here :)
Lösungscode: All the blue digits in row 5 (left to right) followed by all the red digits in column 5 (top to bottom)

I took this on right after finishing your brilliant and original "Roots in the Fog" puzzle and I enjoyed it even more. The rules may be a bit intricate, but the construction is fantastic, and it ended up solving much more smoothly than I expected when I first started.

This puzzle is impossible. Maybe I can make a small deduction here or there... <An hour later> Wow! That was amazing, thanks for setting!

Some very original logic in this one, with an ending that played out quite differently than what I was expecting. Enjoyed it a lot!
