Library Intro
Play
八八艦隊計画の第一号艦として生まれた、長門型戦艦のネームシップ、長門だ。

大和型が就役するまで、連合艦隊旗艦も務めていたさ。 世界のビッグ7と云われてもいたな。

Born as the first battleship of the 8-8 fleet programme, the nameship of the Nagato-class battleships, Nagato.

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)

あまり艤装には触らないでもらいたいものだな (as Nagato) / ん、なっ…い、いや、き、嫌いでは…ない。(as Nagato Kai) I would prefer that you don't touch my equipment excessively. (as Nagato) / W-wha, n-no, I-I... don't hate it. (as Nagato Kai) (All of the Nagato's weapons, save the main cannon, were removed before the end of the war).
Secretary(idle)
Play
ん?なに?別に時間を持て余しているわけではないぞ。ああそうだ、忙しいな。 Hm? What? It's not like I have too much time to spend. Yes, that's right. I'm busy. (New idle line. Could be phrased better, could use a bit of correction.)

She was treasured during WW2 as the IJN flagship.

んだろう? 記憶の彼方にある、あの光景は? 敵味方の艦たち、そしてあの巨大な光…。疲れているのか…な、提督。 What is it I wonder? What is that landscape, deep inside my memories? Friendly and enemy ships, and then that enormous light... Hey, Admiral...I must be stressed out. The 'enormous light' may be referring to Operation Crossroads at the Bikini Atoll.

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.
