• Hohi Line: Namino ⇄ Bungo-Ogi

Takimizu opened on 2 December 1928, the day the Hōhi Main Line came into being through the joining of the Inukai and Miyaji light-rail lines between Tamarai and Miyaji. It served as one of several intermediate stations on the new through corridor between Kumamoto and Ōita. Freight and parcel handling ended on 1 October 1971 and the station became unstaffed; JR Kyushu inherited it at the 1 April 1987 privatisation. The original wooden station building still stands but the main interior is now used by the local chamber of commerce; passengers reach the platform through a side passage, with an annex of the building serving as a waiting room. Typhoon Talim closed the line through Takimizu in September 2017.

Takimizu's original 1928 wooden station building is still standing, but it now houses a branch of the local chamber of commerce — passengers reach the platform via a side passage, not through the building itself.
