• Tokushima Line: Gaku ⇄ Awa-Yamakawa

The station was opened on 23 December 1899 as Yamasaki Station (山崎駅) by the privately run Tokushima Railway as the then terminus after track was extended from Awa-Kawashima. It became a through-station on 7 August 1900 when the line was further extended to what is now Awa-Yamakawa. When the railway was nationalised on 1 September 1907 the Japanese Government Railways took over and ran it as part of the Tokushima Line. The station was renamed Yamase on 25 March 1914. It became unstaffed on 1 April 1983, and with the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 it passed to JR Shikoku; the line itself was renamed the Tokushima Line on 1 June 1988.
