Why? DL operates a very convenient daily nonstop from MSP to HND.

BTW, your OP says USA resident (not citizen), so double check visa requirement for your Canada transit.

If you really want JAL, IMO it would be better to take one of their nonstop routes from the USA, such as perhaps ORD or DFW. Anything further east might not be a legal routing to do on a single ticket. Another suggestion is to use JAL's partner AA for any domestic connecting flights, which should make it easier to check luggage through, assuming that you have a single ticket/PNR, as well as providing more protection and ease fo rebooking during IROPs.
