Asunarō Yokkaichi Station traces its origin to the Mie Light Railway's Suwa-mae Station, which opened on 16 May 1913 on the line that is today's Yokkaichi Asunarō Railway Utsube Line. The station went through a long sequence of owners — Mie Railway (1916), Mie Kōtsū (1944), Mie Electric Railway (1964), and Kinki Nippon Railway (Kintetsu) (1965) — and was relocated and renamed Kinki Nippon Yokkaichi when the Kintetsu Nagoya Line was rebuilt on its present alignment on 23 September 1956, becoming Kintetsu Yokkaichi on 1 March 1970. The current name dates from 1 April 2015, when Kintetsu transferred its narrow-gauge Utsube Line to the newly created Yokkaichi Asunarō Railway; the station was split off from Kintetsu Yokkaichi as a separate station bearing the new operator's name. ICOCA was introduced to the Utsube and Hachiōji lines on 21 August 2021.

Asunarō Yokkaichi and Kintetsu Yokkaichi are run as separate stations: when the Utsube Line was transferred to the Yokkaichi Asunarō Railway in 2015, its part of the complex was split off from Kintetsu Yokkaichi under the new operator's name. Until the Yunoyama Line was re-gauged on 1 March 1964, the narrow-gauge Utsube and Hachiōji lines were physically connected to it at this station and through-running across Yokkaichi was possible; the re-gauging severed that link.
