• Yodo Line: Tokawa (Kochi) ⇄ Ekawasaki

Hage Station opened on 1 March 1974 as part of the Yodo Line under Japanese National Railways, built into a hillside above National Route 381 in what is today the Nishitosahage neighbourhood of Shimanto, Kōchi Prefecture. The unstaffed halt has always consisted of a single side platform reached by a flight of steps from the road, with a passenger shelter but no station building. On 1 April 1987 control passed to JR Shikoku at the privatisation of JNR, and the station was assigned the line number G33. It remains a quiet rural stop on the line linking Wakai with Uwajima.

By local tradition recorded in the 1734 "Tosa-no-kuni Kagamigusa," the place name is said to derive from defeated Taira clan refugees who shifted a horizontal stroke in the character 平 to disguise themselves, producing 半 (read "hage").
