Just want to double-check with this thread that you think this will be a valid connection that doesn't require entering Japan. Both flights appear to operate out of Terminal 1 although the Ethiopian flight seems to depart from a satellite terminal. It looks like the Ethiopian flight historically departs from gate 41 for what it's worth.
don't have access to EF currently , but historically shows NH interlines with ET, so you should be fine, plus it's a single PNR

if you look at the NRT T1 map, it's not really a separate terminal, just a separate wing. When you land from LAX, you should be able to skip transit security and just exit straight to the main concourse. Then you can walk around airside, lounges if you have access, then hang out at gate 41.

Check the hours, most of the shops/food places close after 5pm. There are some vending machines, but don't remember if they are cash/suica only. You probably want to go to 7/11(C12 on map) and MatsumotoKiyoshi(C7) immediately to get some snacks/drinks if no lounge access
