I thought Fubuki being made FS was sort of strange until I thought about it a bit. She's the only one that's not really bogged down by quirks (say eccentric as Kongou or clingy as Ooi) and definitely not in a rivalry with anyone else in the group like Kaga and Zuikaku are. In a way, she's the only sane choice. Kaga won't follow Zuikaku's orders and vice-versa due to their ongoing rivalry, Kongou leading ships that lack the intuitive bond she has with her sisters fails utterly due to her lack of actual planning and coordination and instead going in recklessly, and Ooi and KTKM are too engrossed with each other to consider making choices outside of protecting one another. Fubuki has shown that she's quite well-versed with rudimentary military knowledge like her knowledge on torpedoes that she displayed during Episode 2 - it would not be too strange to think she also understands basic combat tactics as well.

Personally, I like how the show is unfolding. It's wonderful to see a new group of the ships getting a larger spotlight.

P.S. I also want Zuikaga to happen in the anime now that they're together in the same fleet~
