A strong cluster of public universities in Japan.
Did you understand? 
Japanese universities do not have very clear rankings like those in Europe and the United States, and there is a lot of controversy from the third place onwards, except for the University of Tokyo and Kyoto University, which maintain their status in the top two for a long time.
For example, Osaka University, Tohoku University, Nagoya University, and Tokyo Institute of Technology all have the strength to compete for the third place in Japan. Although it is difficult to distinguish between high and low universities at the same level in Japan, there is no problem in dividing the university group into echelons.
Today, let's take a look at the national universities in Japan!
1. The top national university group: Old Imperial University
Imperial University, as the name suggests, is a university established during the Imperial period of Japan. After 1897, the university group was established under the Imperial University Ordinance promulgated by Japan at that time, and it is now customary to call it the former Imperial University.
There are only seven Imperial Universities in Japan, which are:University of Tokyo, Kyoto University, Tohoku University, Osaka University, Nagoya University, Kyushu University, Hokkaido University.
Among them, Nagoya University, Hokkaido University, Tohoku University, and Kyushu University are also "regional imperial universities".

It is worth noting that the 7 former Imperial Universities + Hitotsubashi University + Tokyo Institute of Technology + Kobe University are also often referred to collectively as the "Old Imperial Ikkojin", representing the highest level of national universities in Japan.
3. Local national universities other than Imperial University: Station
After World War II, Japan quickly established national universities in each prefecture, because there were many of them, and most of the schools were established near the national railway stations at that time, and Japanese stations sold ekiben, so they were ridiculed as "station" universities.
Although the conditions for the establishment of the university were very poor, because it is not a national university, it has developed significantly with the support of the state.
