The Other Wiki has a full article about the University here. Getting accepted to a university is one of the main goals of Japanese high school students, and the majority aspires to be accepted by the national universities of Japan, Todai being the hardest to pass. If they did not get accepted (and most of them do), instead of finding another school to take them in, Japanese students opt instead to take a year off in their studies, preparing themselves to retake the exam for an indefinite number of times until they pass. These student are called Ronin, as students without a university to attend is deemed similar to a Samurai without a feudal Lord to serve. Since Tokyo Is the Center of the Universe in Anime and Manga, Tokyo University serves the purpose of being a university where the main characters in the story study (if they are not Ordinary High School Students anymore), or a school where the Ordinary High School Student dreams to enter after graduation. Being a student at Todai is also a way to imply that the character is extremely intelligent in his own right, since admission to the university is very stringent. For the American equivalent, see Ivy League for Everyone. Oxbridge serves the same purpose Todai does in the British Isles.
