• Dosan Line: Iyaguchi ⇄ Koboke

Awa-Kawaguchi Station opened on 28 November 1935 when Japanese Government Railways extended the then Kōchi Line northwards from Toyonaga to Minawa and the line was renamed the Dosan Line. Freight handling was discontinued in 1970, and the station was destaffed and devolved to simple commission operation in 1983. With the 1 April 1987 privatisation of Japanese National Railways the station passed to JR Shikoku, which carries it as station number D25. The present station building dates from March 1988, and in 2022 the secondary station name "Ponpoko Awa-Kawaguchi" was adopted to invoke the local tanuki folklore.

On 26 August 2003 a KiHa 58-series local train caught fire in the station yard; the cause was traced to over-revving of the auxiliary generator engine on KiHa 28 3013, which was subsequently scrapped, and no injuries resulted.
