Main: Maya(93), Yamashiro(98), Hyuuga(43), Taihou(98), Zuikaku K2A(96), Akitsumaru(79)

Maya for AACI, BBVs have 3 Zuiun variants and Sanshiki, CVBs have two TB, one fighter and Saiun/Type 2 recon, and Akitsu all Reppuu, ~380-420 air power depending on Zuiun ranks

Escort: Sendai(89), Ashigara(97), Prinz(66). Ayanami(79), Ooi(88), Hatsuzuki(65)

Sendai & Ayanami have double attack WG42 setup, CA have standard anti-installation setup, Ooi 2sec+ko-hyoteki, and Hatsuzuki for backup AACI

Boss support: 1st&2nd CarDiv(lv90 each), Shigure(97) & Akatsuki(92)

13 total dive bombers (1 Egusa. 1Suisei 401, 3x Suisei 12A, 3x Ju87C, Skilled 99, 4x Type 0 F/B), 4 on Kaga & 3 on the others. DDs have full radars

If the problem lies on the dive bombers I used then I have no choice since that's all dive bombers I own, I own more torp bombers than dive bombers (10 Ryuusei kai compared to 3 Suisei 12A) Tenryuuko, how about trying to only use Dive Bombers (even those free type 99 dive bomber that you get from the level 1 CVL) and put all zuiun in the BBV. No need Sanshiki.

If not mistaken, my last dance was cleared by the opening airstrike. The Zuiun and DiveBombers killed the boss.

I think someone mention Torpedo Bomber won't attack the boss. (Or not I would have used my Ryuusei Kai. My built above used ONLY zuiun and dive bombers, even those normal 99 dive bombers).

Oh I just cleared it today, the reason why I use TBs on my CVBs is so that they will instead attack the escorts instead of doing nothing at shelling. I also still have a couple of Suisei left.

I tried using dive bombers before at my CVB for some runs but it is also ineffective (for me), the opening airstrikes pre-boss are less powerful and they seem to be more susceptible to be shut down by the abyssals' anti-air defense,

In fact I still needed two more runs today to sink the Hime, which is done by the aerial support finally doing nuke level damage. I even S-ranked the boss node by taking it at night.

Anyways thanks for the suggestions, I might do it if I still can't sink the boss. It's just that I needed a lot of runs to get that optimal damage roll to sink her.
