For 4-3 flagship leveling, I use DD/CL flagship, BB, CV, CVL, CLT, CLT

Recommend all fast ships to get evasion bonus (it does exist right? Kai Ni'd my Kongou sisters and RJ this way while lvling several DD and CL). Line Ahead at J, Line Abreast the rest.

Flagship with best ASW (T3 DC + 2x T3 sonar), CLT with regular ASW (T94 DC + T93 sonar) + midget sub, BB with best day cut-in or double attack setup, CV with full best blue planes + 15.5cm yellow in smallest slot, CVL with full green planes + Saiun in smallest slot (72+ AS because of the CVL compo at node J).

If node J, CV airstrike + CLT torpedo salvo should take care of half the fleet, and following BB shot takes care of 1 more. CV with 15.5cm yellow will have same range as CLT, so it can attack right after the BB. CVL is there just to grand air superiority at node J, the sub killing is done by the flag and CLT (6 shots total for max 5 subs, which should all be letal hits). CV can steal MVP if sub nodes have CL or transport compositions. Can change CVL for another CV if airstrike at J is not strong enough, taking care to respect the 72+ AS rule.

If all ships in this composition are at least Kai'd and fully modernized (AA stat not required), node J may be less traumatic. I leveled my Taihou from 1 to 84 and my Ryuujou from 5 to 75 this way while leveling my Sendai sisters, Yuudachi, Shigure and Hibiki/Vernyi (with PvP battles in the mix, exactly the same composition with adapted equips for each PvP battle). Also Kai Ni'd my Kongou sisters from lvl 55 at the same time. The first levels were a pain due to weak CV/CVL, but once I Kai'd and modernized them, it started running smoothly. With all fast fleet, it seemed that node J ships missed their shots a lot, because of that I believe that an all fast fleet gives a global evasion bonus. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Another thing: I usually stop when at least one of the girls is with orange faced morale and let them recover fully before going at it again. ~30 minutes pause every two or three runs, enough to watch an anime episode.
