E7 depends on luck and your ships/equip, but if you already have Akizuki I guess you're a veteran with at least a decent leveled fleet. With the right fleet, you can minimize compass trolling (only the first branching would be still random), and the rest depends on dodging the takoyakis and lucky cut ins. For reference, I cleared E7 Easy in one sitting, with 15k fuel/ammo and 60 buckets. I know it's on the low end of the spectrum, but I didn't really experience so many retreats on preboss (3 on M node and once at first node), and I had 5 clean kills and 4 partial kills during my chipping runs, I didn't run boss support, but I did run node support every sortie.

If E7 is worth it or not depends on you. Since you already have Akizuki, Teruzuki is not really mandatory, beside being cute and giving 2 free 10cm+FD. It's up to you if you value other drops more. Just keep in mind that farming can also provide its own dose of salt, given the not-so-friendly drop rates...
