its either one of the boss note with that single digit health at the end of the battle I used a very luxurious formation, basicly all it does is to win by brute force.

CVL (two of your best ASW TB, and a pair of Akitsumaru's ASW kit)

3CV(B) (400 Fighter power, one Saiun and others TB)

2 BBs

+ (for the second fleet, all equipment slots are ASW unless specified otherwise)

2CLT (1 Kou-Hyouteki each)

1CL

1CA (Main gun x2, night scout and search light)

2DD

But now I use another formation to farm:

4CV (likewise, 1 saiun+enough fighters, other are all TB)

1DD (HA+pair of ASW)

1BB (normal setting)

the second fleet is the same as the first formation.

The second formation is even more steady than the first one, but I never tried it on last dance, since the map was already cleared when I switched to the second formation.

Both formation nearly guarentees an S-rank victory, as long as you can make it that far (this formation needs to fight five nodes before reaching the boss). If that doesn't sound good enough for you, assist them with boss node support (2 CV/CVL + 2DD is fine, pre-boss support is not cost-efficient since most threat came from sub nodes.)
