We've all heard it before.

Take the L.

Can feel harsh, right? Well, I'd like to tell you that L is not such a scary letter. L stands tall and has a strong foundation. L can signify a turning point. L starts such words as luxurious, lively, and even love! You know what? I *like * the letter L. So much so that I have a puzzle for you where you have to divide the whole grid into L's. Lovely! Hopefully this particular puzzle will be un4gettable

Today's GAPP is a Sashigane!

Rules: Divide the grid into regions of orthogonally connected cells. Each region must be an L shape with a width of one cell. Arrows must lie at one end of an L and point toward the bend. Circles must lie at the bend of an L, and if one contains a number, the L it’s inside must contain the indicated amount of cells.

Solver's Note: Auxiliary lines can be very helpful when solving this genre (and many other genres too!). Many times it'll be helpful to mark where a region must go with aux. markings even before a lot of the edges themselves are marked.

Here's a link to the example from puzz.link, same one Freddie used earlier in GAPP https://tinyurl.com/59dd3a4t
