Nakano-fujimicho Station is served by the 3.2 km Hōnanchō branch of the Tokyo Metro Marunouchi Line from Nakano-sakaue to Hōnanchō, and is 1.9 km from Nakano-sakaue.[1] During the daytime, the station is served by 3-car trains shuttling between Nakano-sakaue and Hōnanchō, but during the morning and evening peaks, due to its location next to the line's maintenance depot, the station is also served by some 6-car through trains starting and terminating here, which run to and from Ikebukuro at the eastern end of the main line.[1] The station is numbered "m-04".
