In comparison, ANA at CTS has priority check-in for first, business, and *G.
Don't regularly fly JAL, is this the case for other airports?
Class J is not business class it is a premium economy. Nor does ANA have a business class domestic.
The first class check in is only for Emeralds, but I thought the Global Club counter should allow Sapphires as well. But yes Class J does not have a separate check in as far as I know.
