I can barely believe that I managed to do it, oh goddess... All my struggle with E-2 was worth it, since my strong ships were saved for this.

Used a boss support expedition only for the killing run - the fleet could consistently down BB Hime to Medium/Heavy damage on its own.

All sparkled both fleets before the killing run, Hime was down to red and alone by night battle.

Notable Boss Drops: Hyuuga, Kiyoshimo

Boss Support Expedition:

Lv. 38 Nagato Kai (35.6cm x3, Type 0 Recon), Lv. 38 Fusou Kai (35.6cm x3, Zuiun), Lv. 46 Kikuzuki Kai (10cm HA x3), Lv. 40 Hibiki Kai (12.7cm Type B Kai2, 10cm HA x2), Lv. 44 Zuihou Kai (Suisei x2, Type 99 x2), Lv. 27 Junyou Kai (Suisei x3, Type 99 x1).

Note: Something interesting I found out was that when I exchanged Kaga's Suisei for a Ryuusei to try if it wouldn't perform better, the route got messed into being B-F-E-G-H-I immediately, to my horror. When I put the Suisei back, it thankfully returned to B-F-H-I right away. I don't think i was a coincidence.. if it was, Then I'm just super lucky of always going BFHI for 10+ runs except twice.
