History

Shin-otsuka Station opened for revenue service on 20 January 1954.

The station facilities were inherited by Tokyo Metro after the privatization of the Teito Rapid Transit Authority (TRTA) in 2004.

In the 2015 data available from Japan’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, Shin-ōtsuka → Myōgadani was one of the train segments among Tokyo's most crowded train lines during rush hour.
