History
Komaba-Tōdaimae Station opened on 11 July 1965 on the Keio Inokashira Line in Komaba, Meguro, Tokyo, and is operated by Keio Corporation. The 12.7-kilometre line, on which the station sits 1.4 kilometres from the Shibuya terminus, runs between Shibuya and Kichijōji. The station's compound name combines Komaba, the neighbourhood, and Tōdai-mae — "in front of the University of Tokyo" — reflecting its position by the university's Komaba campus. Only all-stations local services normally call here; express trains may stop on special occasions in November. Keio system-wide station numbering was introduced on 22 February 2013, assigning Komaba-Tōdaimae the code IN03.

Notes
The station's two main exits open onto different ground levels: because the platform straddles a slope, the western (Kichijōji-side) gate sits below the platform while the eastern gate is housed in an above-track building, with an elevator linking the western entrance to the platform.
