Holy shit!

E6 nuke is true.

I did E6 chipping runs using safe southern route (LHA 2BBV 2CVB CA + 3DD CL 2CA). 100% to boss, only once used FCF, always did decent damage, but never sunk her - still, 9 sorties even with C-rank everytime was enough to get map bar below 900hp. I figured out, that if there was no sinking, I have to try something different for last dance. I dropped Maya for Jun'you and left AACI to Hatsuzuki alone. Also, switched from torpedo bombers to dive bombers and from AP shells to sanshiki. Plan was to try again and again until I get lucky and score 300 - 400 dmg from airstrike, another 300 - 400 from support, and then finish her in yasen.

First attempt. Hatsuzuki got chuuha by sub, but I lucked out and got from hurricane into boss and then everything was over before I could even reach for the screen capture button. Airstrike evaporated Centry with 2469 damage. Tell me about overkill. Support fleet planes got there, but found no primary target and settled down on sinking Imp and taihaing Depot Hime. By yasen only BB Hime and Depot Hime were afloat, both in red. DDs mopped them up quickly. First S-rank on E6 boss, and wow, in what style. 13 sorties total. 3 to get debuff nodes (one each), 9 for chipping, 1 for last dance. Never were I more happy for good rng, as I'm deadly busy busy this whole month and just doing these 13 sorties took me four days.

Funny thing is, that enormous nuke didn't even use any CAVs and my Fusous were equipped with two guns, sanshiki and one Zuiun 12 each. Maybe it was dive bombers?

Anyway, Nonaka plane get, now off to liberate Drills-chan.
