Mizuho (AV) drops on E1 node C. You can go farm for her there. Also, you can find more Chitose-Chiyoda Sisters and keep the copies as AV for situations like this. You can keep multiple copies of shipgirls in your base. You're just barred from having copies in the same fleet.

For E2, you can try this setup that I use:

1CL1CLT1AV3DD


 * CL - can be any strong CL that you have. I personally used Kuma, though if you're going Easy you can go ahead and use any of the Sendai sisters. Setup: 2x Main Guns/ 1x Seaplane.


 * CLT - Kitakami loadout for torpedoes is fine. Setup: 1x Ko-hyoteki / 1x Quad O2 Torpedo


 * AV - Can be either of the Chitose/Chiyoda Sisters in AV form that you found. Stack Zuiuns on there to help with LoS requirements. If you have enough slots, you can add a Type A Ko-hyoteki on her, but don't expect too much. Since we're aiming just to clear enough enemy to get A-rank, it should be enough to knock out a DD.


 * DD - Bring your strongest DD that you have if you feel like taking down BB Hime in Night Battle. Otherwise, second-line DD such as the Kagerou-class or Asashio-class are also sufficient. If you have AACI-capable ships, use her. That would generally require you to have the 10cmHA+AAFD and an Air Radar, though. If you don't, just stack 2x Main Guns and a Radar on each of your DD.

Note: I cleared E2 Normal while Mizuho is still non-kai. In fact, she finished E2 Normal while only managing to reach Lv39 ( Mizuho Kai = Lv40).
