I think Akitsumari is the superior choice for farming E-4. In around 20+ times I've been sent to C anyways, I've only reached the dead end twice (I've suffered red damage due to the submarine node more times). In my opinion, it's better to at least have a chance to avoid C, rather than be forced go there anyways.

Farming Fleet Comp:

Fleet 1 Comp: Akitsumaru/CV(Lower Level Unryuu)/CV/FCVL/CA/CAV

Fleet 2 Comp: CL/DD/DD/CA/CAV/FBB

This setup is pretty much forced to go to night against the boss, but with 3 sanshiki double attack ships, you can easily take out the boss even if she has full health. Since the boss can't be hit by red planes and torpedos, you can set up your fleet to kill off the escorts and just focus on killing the boss at night. Akitsumaru deals solid damage to the boss, so honestly it works pretty well.
