The only problem I see with the segment count is that the total is more than 20. In each of the sections, the OP has included both the intra-continental sectors and the inter-continental sectors, making it appear that there are more than the 4 or 6 permitted per continent. There are two continuing flights (AA66 and LA572) each which is only counted as a single sector since they are through connections on the same travel day. So I make it a total of 23 sectors. Got to reduce it by 3, perhaps by purchasing some of the sectors on a separate ticket.

As per the first response, the JL codeshare is not allowed so the only way from BKK to NRT is to use CX via HKG which is an additional Asia segment, so the return can only include 2 Asia segments and not the three planned, so DPS is not going to happen. You can't purchase additional segments in the home continent.
