I am not so worried about the ANA portion of the trip but the part where the bags need to connect from TG to NH in BKK.
Of course it is safe to check bags through BKK. TG has a pretty efficient operations in terms of luggage, I have been through the new BKK airport on quite short connections, and never arrived without my bags.
Are you worried about short connection time?
