Didn't meet the PT boats prior to the bug fix, for how annoying they are, managed to murder 80% of them out of all my encounters.
Didn't even debuff E5, the PTs dont spawn all that much and all DD water oni needs is a hypernuclear torpedo cut-in up her ass, courtesy of beaver most of the times
(Please use Sendai-Shigure-Kawakaze route, it helps a lot)

I did have to use the support shelling to make sure less of those annoying glowing red DDs escorts are left before the actual fight begin. Oh, and I debuffed, for extra caution. I wanted a S rank because I thought there was a little too much left. I didn't know it was actually Last Dance until Ayanami nuked Evil!Hagikaze and cleared the boss bar.
Luckily I didn't meet many PT since I cleared this map on hard with Abukuma, Ayanami, Yuudachi, Ooi, Shigure and Yukikaze (all DA) and without any support (I only had to wait an opening torpedo strike that killed 2 DD).
