yes it matter, aside from getting bonus accuracy, your damage will be higher too when the hits landed...at least for me I see some significant improvement in battle by upgrading equipments compared when it still non-upgraded..

this is just my opinion, "better" guns for Kongou-class are proto 35.6cm, Bismarck/Italia/Roma/Iowa can also benefitted with this gun, second would be 38cm kai...a maxed standard 35.6cm can also be good too...

for Nagato/Fusou-class K2 are proto 41cm guns, the usual 41cm if it upgraded...Iowa gun was also good even without any upgrade since it have high accuracy...

don't force on using the Yamato-class, I cleared 3 event all-hard, not even once I used the Yamato-class in all those 3 event...

read this blog by Hayashi H, it's already outdated but still good as reference...

after this event end try to get Akashi ASAP  or you can go back farm on E-1 to get her..., upgrade the important guns to +4 first, or at least +1, you can see in http://akashi-list.me/ how many bonus stats you can get for each upgrade...
