I use Iku, Hachi, Goya (SSV) and Imuya (SS), they're all lvl 76+ equipped with 2x Quad O2. Smooth rides all over, except when RNG trolls the targetting on the opening salvo (dat boss node with diamond formation, my girls decide that the BBs are more dangerous than the 3 CL, suddenly green T ...).

I used to use my SS copies (Iku, Hachi and Goya lvl 50+ unremodeled with the same Imuya), due to lowest repair times, but the difference in damage output is abysmal. Also, they have lower defenses and evasion, thus got rekt more easily. The consumption difference is negligible, either way you'll get fuel profit and almost unnoticeable ammo loss with 4 girls.

Don't expect to get many S ranks, the targetting RNG trolls too much (4 torpedos per salvo, 3~6 "dangerous" targets per node, targets only 1~2 enemies ...), you should be satisfied with just A or B ranks. I only go night battle on transport nodes when the opening and closing salvos don't kill the transports/carriers needed for quests.

If you get Maruyu, you can put her on flagship position until lvl 20, remodel her, then return to the previous composition. She's too useless to remain in the fleet, even modernized, fully remodelled and with a Quint O2.

If you get Shioi, by all means use her. The extra torpedo per salvo is very much welcome.
