Cho Gekkan Nagato is a The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya fanbook focusing on Nagato. It was published May 9, 2009, shortly before season 2 of the series began airing. The book is a combination of text features, screenshots from the anime, and official anime-style artwork.

Contents
The first page quotes a passage from the first of Nagato's stories in "Editor in Chief★Straight Ahead!" with the image of Nagato feeling snow fall, in color. The remaining pages show a scene from an SOS Brigade meeting, with Nagato in the background but the only part of the image in color, accompanied by a series of statements relating to Nagato's identity (ranging from her own identification as a Humanoid Interface all the way down to Taniguchi's rating her "A-"). Anime-style artwork compiled from various magazines. While the pictures all include Nagato, none of them spotlight her. Monochromatic negative images of Nagato with a superimposed collage of quotations from Nagato's revelation of her and Haruhi Suzumiya's natures to Kyon. A footnote text summarizes the context of the quotations. More anime-style artwork compiled from various magazines. As with Part 1, none of the pictures spotlight Nagato, featuring the three SOS Brigade females equally. Screenshots from Nagato's battle with Ryoko Asakura, accompanied by text summarizing the circumstances and outcome of the battle. Anime-style artwork including Ryoko Asakura and Emiri Kimidori, with brief profiles on the two characters. Screenshots of Nagato in her fortune teller outfit, with a summary of "The Adventures of Mikuru Asahina Episode 00" and a brief account of "Live Alive" from Nagato's perspective. An episode-by-episode overview of Nagato’s reading activities in the series. Screenshots are included, and the book she is reading is identified whenever visible in the episode. Various text features, including a column breaking down Nagato's speech patterns, a collage of quotes from Nagato, and a complete listing of "Yuki Nagato's 100 Books" with a short review of each book. Material on the Melancholy of Haruhi-chan Suzumiya anime, including screenshots, summaries, and character designs. An article on Nagato's voice actress, Minori Chihara, accompanied by photos of Chihara reading books. More anime-style artwork compiled from various magazines. This one does contain a few pictures spotlighting Nagato, but most feature the three SOS Brigade females equally. The first four pages are screenshots from the series, with filter effects to make them appear as Nagato's memories. The last two pages are an anime-style picture of Asakura cradling Nagato. A footnote text expresses a motherly promise to protect, presumably from Asakura's perspective. A two-page spread of Nagato lying beside an open book, accompanied by a brief commentary on the character by artist Takahiro Kimura.
