forfeting segments

Ive been looking into booking a ticket on .bomb from SFO-NRT.

For the dates I want 3/23 or 4/1 departure and 8/1 return ive been getting a ridiculous price. For the same dates for a flight from SFO-TPE with a stop in NRT ive been getting an almost 1k difference in price. So my questions is if I can purchase the TPE ticket and forfeit the NRT-TPE segment and on 8/1 check in at NRT directly without having to go to TPE.

Is this the best way for me to go about booking the tickets? I dont mind transferring or anything so I have been playing around with multiple city searches to get a lower fare but no luck yet. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Hopefully this topic hasnt been covered to death. Thanks
