Puzzle Description:

Nausicaa And the Valley of the Wind - Nausicaa glides in the sky on her glider. This is Hayao Miyazaki's first manga, part of which became the Studio Ghibli film.

I did my best to make it difficult, yet logically solvable. There is a lot of edge logic and some two way logic, especially with the black in the bottom left.

Excellent

Initial line & color logic gets to 98% with only black remaining.

R30: Wherever the black 3 is placed, it puts black in R28C11. LL.

R25: If black is placed in C7, it makes R27 invalid.

LL to finish.

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by wombatilim.
