Yajirushi quietly released on pzprxs 9 months ago. And it feels nothing like Yajirushi 2, which we covered a while ago. Why is it always the weirdest genres that have numbered variants?

Feeling inspired, I've begun working on a new Yajirushi variant. It will be called Yajirushi 4.

Rules: Place arrows in some empty cells. Two arrows which point toward each other form a pair. All arrows must be paired. Paired arrows must not be in adjacent cells, and all cells between a pair of arrows must be empty (in particular, arrows cannot point through shaded cells). All empty cells must be located between at least one pair of arrows.
