Asahi Station opened on 15 November 1924 as a station on the Ministry of Railways' Kōchi Line, in what is today Asahi-eki-mae-chō, Kōchi, Kōchi Prefecture. Delivery handling ended on 1 October 1969, freight handling on 15 May 1982, and parcel handling on 14 March 1985. With JNR's breakup on 1 April 1987 it passed to JR Shikoku as a station on the Dosan Line. From the 1 March 2005 timetable revision the number of limited-express trains stopping here increased markedly. On 16 March 2024 the station became fully unstaffed and the park-and-ride service was discontinued.

Asahi Station shares its name with Asahi Station on the JR East Sōbu Main Line in Asahi, Chiba; to keep the two apart, ticket-window and vending-machine tickets — ordinary platform tickets sold at the window excepted — show it as "（土）旭". Its station-board catchphrase is "Omokaru-Jizō-son no eki" ("the station of the Omokaru-Jizō").
