5A/K and 9A/K aren’t available in my flight. Would your preference then be for 6C/H, something in the main cabin or something in the back mini cabin? But doesn’t 6C/H also only have one window or does it not have the alignment issue you mentioned about 7A/K?
Hmm, this is a bit of a tough one. If I were to guess, I would think 11A/K is disliked because the engine (and maybe the wing - remember you are facing backward toward the wing) would be somewhat prominent in the view. I found this review from seat 11A to give you an idea of the view. I don't think it is too bad, still better than row 13 (which I sat in once) where the wing is right below you. If I remember correctly, I picked row 6 that one time because every window seat up to the wing was occupied.

Personally, I would probably pick 11A/K for the double and better-aligned windows. The trade-off, of course, is potential engine/wing obstruction and engine noise (which I now realize is only a secondary concern for me, haha). Also, if you intend to sleep/rest right after meal service, ANA's business class meal service does take a while, so the further back you are the longer you will have to wait.
