I departed NRT on a mid morning *A flight on a weekday and can confirm that NH has special *A priority check in counters but there was NO priority security clearance for *A Gold member. In fact, I did not notice a priority lane as suggested in NH web site. There were a lot of departing passengers but the queue moved very quickly in typical Japanese efficiency.
There is a lane for NH premium and elite members. It's toward the center of the terminal (with the other half of the terminal used by SkyTeam). NH lets u go through so long as u r a NH elite if, for instance, u r flying SQ.
This premium elite lane's metal detector didn't catch my iPhone and a mobile on me a couple of months ago.
JL also has its own at T2. JL doesn't let u use it unless u r a JL elite and fly JL. A JL elite flying CX does not qualify.
