History

Tatsumichi Station was opened by the privately run Awa Electric Railway (later the Awa Railway) on 1 July 1916 . After the Awa Railway was nationalized on 1 July 1933, Japanese Government Railways (JGR) took over control of the station and operated it as part of the Awa Line. On 20 March 1935, after some other stations on the line were absorbed into the Kōtoku Main Line, Tatsumichi became part of the Muya Line. On 1 March 1956, the line was renamed as the Naruto Line. On 1 April 1987, with the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, the station came under the control of JR Shikoku.[6][7]
