Just for reference, random date on March on United. We are looking at this kind of price differences.

Economy Round Trip, no stop over
ROC-NRT: $1,178.86

Economy Stop Over at Honolulu, 2 tickets:
ROC-HNL: $817.99
HNL-NRT: $649.36

Total: 1,467.35

Business Class Round trip, no stop over
ROC-NRT: $4,396.63

If on business trip and a company will pay for a business class then business class is nice option. However, if it is on own dime then business class is out of my budget. I am wondering what OP’s budget for the travel.

If you're willing to charter a plane, I guess. AFAIK, there haven't been commercial flights to Tokyo from Anchorage in many years.
Unless fly yourself as a cargo. Cargo airlines uses Anchorage as a hub for far east destination. FedEx, UPS, and Nippon Cargo have schedule commercial flights on ANC-NRT pretty much on daily basis.
