Things to be aware of - To enter Japan, you will need to meet the requirements that are outlined in the Visit Japan Web instructions. You'll need to provide evidence of vaccination status (three doses of approved vaccine) OR negative test (be careful to comply with the exact requirements for test protocol and documentation). You should upload the documentation online and complete all forms through Visit Japan Web to avoid a time-consuming process to enter Japan:

thank you, that’s very clear! Upon further searches, ANA has a codeshare with Hawaiian through HND that allows baggage to be checked through and without going landside. This, while cost a bit more, might be the best option. But nevertheless the above is very useful.
