Japan market is practically irrelevant for NRT flights. NRT is predominantly connections, given that HND is impractical for that and simply doesn't serve many destinations altogether. Just look at where pax go when a flight lands at NRT. Majority go to security for onward connections. Others go out and then for domestic connections (much easier and quicker at NRT than the horrid HND). Only a few actually step out into Narita.
