History
Komada Station opened on 3 November 1928 with the Nara Electric Railroad's extension from Momoyama Goryōmae to Saidaiji (now Yamato-Saidaiji). It became a Kintetsu Kyoto Line station on 1 October 1963 when Nara Electric Railroad merged into Kintetsu. PiTaPa IC card service began on 1 April 2007, a new station building entered service on 16 June 2021 as part of a surrounding land-readjustment project, and the station was made fully unstaffed on 10 January 2024. Komada has two opposed side platforms connected by an underground passage and is numbered B20. The effective platform length tops out at four cars, so longer Karasuma Line through services have to pass it.

Notes
Komada's four-car-only platforms mean that the 1997 six-car Karasuma Line through-runs from Kokusai Kaikan to Takanohara had to skip Komada outright.
