E-5 Medium mode is going unexpectedly well so far, 4 sorties and I'm around halfway done:

Reached the boss every single time (one time with the help of Fleet Command Facility, another time with the use of damecon on my Katori) and sank the boss succesfully twice, other times managed to damage her by a quite large amount. My patience for fixing every single ship to full HP and taking the time to sparkle my second fleet and Taihou on the first fleet is probably being rewarded...

Something what I find useful is choosing the bottom right formation instead of the top right one in A node - you really need that increased accuracy for disabling the CL Oni's torpedo strike. With that formation you'll probably take more scratch damage, but at least you have a higher chance to avoid Taiha by disabling the CL Oni. Personally, I actually managed to sink her in just the day battle on my last run, though there was a Green T to assist in that.

No Isokaze in sight, but there is no way I'd meet her with just this little amount of sorties. I probably won't have the guts to reset the boss HP bar later, so I'll have to deal with the 2 Ru Kai for my later Isokaze farming runs... (unless the enemy fleet is different from the final kill form after clearing the map.)
