Shima-Akasaki Station opened on 25 July 1949 in present-day Toba, Mie Prefecture, as a stop on the Mie Kōtsū railway, and a passing loop was added in September 1950. Mie Kōtsū's rail business was hived off on 1 February 1964, making the station part of Mie Electric Railway, which was absorbed into Kintetsu on 1 April 1965. Service was suspended for improvement work from 10 December 1969 and resumed on 1 March 1970 with the line converted to standard gauge. The station became unstaffed on 1 November 2011, and PiTaPa was introduced from 1 April 2014. Its two opposed side platforms hold only two cars, yet the passing loop is eight cars long and limited expresses cross here — the only station now situated in the middle of a single-track section on the Shima Line.

Although its passenger platforms only fit two cars, the passing loop is laid out for eight, letting limited expresses cross at what is now the only station in the middle of a single-track section on the Shima Line.
