Okay, while you clearly have more successes in killing the E4 boss during the chipping run (I only managed boss kill on LD; Hard mode, btw), I still think that you have too many battleships in the escort fleet. Battleships are great in day battle, but when it comes to night battle, many ships with torpedoes (CAs, CL(T)s, DDs) outdo them.

My suggestion would be to run 2 (F)BB and 4 CV + 1 CL 1 CLT 2 CA 2 DD. You can swap one CA with one FBB if you like. Ideally, escort fleet should have as many high-luck ships with NBCI setup as possible, save for the one CA or DD you put for AA duty. DA setup may work for difficulty lower than Hard, though don't quote me for it.

Take that FCF out of Hiryuu and give her something else more useful - additional fighter OR Saiun OR recon plane of your choice. This is Last Dance; you would want to have all your ships present in the boss node to deal maximum damage.
