Until the Yamato was entered into service, I served as the flagship of the combined fleet. I was called one of the 'Big 7'.	(The IJN wanted 8 first-class battleships and 8 battlecruisers under the 8-8 fleet programme. The "Big 7" were the 7 BBs in the world that were allowed to mount 16 inch guns according to the negotiations of Washington Naval Conference. Besides Nagato and Mutsu, the Big Seven are the UK battleships, Nelson and Rodney and the US battleships, Colorado, Maryland and West Virginia)

Trivia

• In the anime, she is the admiral's secretary (next to Mutsu).
• Nagato was the only surviving Japanese Capital ship after World War II.
• Her name goes after the Nagato province (western part of today's Yamaguchi prefecture) and is written with the kanji representing "Long" and "Gate."
• The "Giant Flash" she speaks of in her sunk and wedding lines is probably a reference to the Able Nuclear Test during Operation Crossroads, where a 23-kiloton air deployed nuclear weapon was detonated over Nagato and 94 other target ships. Nagato had been deliberately placed near the epicenter of both the Able and Baker detonations because the Pearl Harbor attack had been commanded from her bridge.
• Nagato managed to survive the Able Test unscathed, however she sprung a leak after the underwater detonation during the Baker Test, repair crews were unable to repair the leak due to high radiation levels and she capsized and sank during the night of 29/30 July 1946.
• The real-life Nagato made a cameo in the animated movie, "The Wind Rises", shown with the serpentine funnel that came with her refitting between 1923-1925.
• Sunk as a target during Operation Crossroads, 25 July 1946. Currently resting in 110 ft. of water, and upside-down, she is listed as one of the top 10 diving sites in the world.
