Kizugawa Station is a ground-level station on the Nankai Kōya Line's Shiomibashi Branch in Kita-Tsumori 1-chōme, Nishinari-ku, Osaka, with station number NK06-3. It opened on 3 September 1900 with the Kōya Railway's Dōtonbori (now Shiomibashi)–Ōshōji (now Sakai-higashi) extension and passed through several changes of owner — Kōya-Tozan Railway (1907), Ōsaka Kōya Railway (1915), Nankai Railway (1922), Kintetsu (1944) — before becoming a Nankai Electric Railway station on 1 June 1947 by line transfer. Despite once handling lumber from the Kii Mountains transhipped via the Kizu-gawa River for Osaka's timber yards, the station today recorded just 141 average daily passengers in 2019 — the lowest of any rail station in the City of Osaka — and is occasionally called "a secluded station in the middle of the big city" (daitokai no naka no hikyō-eki). The host district, Nishinari-ku, is one of the 24 wards of Osaka City and was created in the 1925 second city-area expansion; the ward name preserves the old Nishinari-gun place name, and the ward's westernmost edge along the Kizu-gawa River — where the station sits — is industrial in character.

Nishinari-ku's westernmost edge along the Kizu-gawa River (where the station stands) is an industrial belt, contrasting with the eastern Tenjin-no-mori and Shōtenshita districts, quiet residential areas that survive from the Tengachaya suburban housing development of the late Meiji period.
