Thank you for explaining what is happening and what to do. JAL was not able to pull up the flight by the ticket number that was given to me by AA.
I did go to checkmyflights and was able to pull up 2 JAL flights (HND to FUK and FUK to HND) but the longest flight (LAX to HND) is not confirmed and the AA flight return from HND to LAX is not there under AA or under JAL confirmations. (2 different flight confirmations).
I am going to try AA again and see if I get a more sympathetic agent to help me. if not, I will HUACA.
I don't fully understand your routing and airline combination. If your LAX-HND flight is operated by JL but shows unconfirmed on checkmytrip (not checkmyflights), yet AA says it is confirmed, the booking is not synchroised between AA (Sabre) and JAL (Amadeus). If your HND-LAX flight is operated by AA, it is fine even if it doesn't show up on checkmytrip. As long as it is on the AA reservation and on the ticket, you will be fine.

If you're booked on JAL via an AA codeshare, as far as I know there is no way to select your seats in advance.
I was able to get seat assignment earlier this year, just not on exit row.

This is the case if you book a JL prime flight, not if it is marketed by AA.
