The University of Tokyo, as Japan's foremost prestigious institution, perennially occupies the top spot in the nation. It is the first choice for Japanese students pursuing their education and is considered the pinnacle of academia in the hearts of many Japanese people.
However, even though the University of Tokyo is renowned for its impeccable teaching standards, academic research, and the future studies and employment opportunities of its students, the proportion of female students at the University of Tokyo ranks near the bottom among Japan's many prestigious schools.
This is not because Japan lacks academically outstanding female students capable of getting admitted to the University of Tokyo, thereby failing to raise the proportion of female students. Rather, it's because the female students at the University of Tokyo are so exceptional that Japanese men simply don't dare to marry a female academic prodigy from Todai.
