OP was looking
after security where there are indeed, very few facilities: 2 or 3 beverage/snack carts (only 1 of which was open prior to JAL departure) and a mini-shop on wheels.
There are fairly good facilities as nacirema describes
before security, and if you fail to notice the (fairly prominent) sign as you approach security, warning you of the lack of facilities thereafter, then you could be disappointed.
And the JAL lounge is a bit gloomy.
It's not LHR, or NRT, or HKG, but it does have most of what you really need pre-flight.
(What it also has, is a fascinating series of photographs, running the length of one wing of the terminal, depicting the lives of families around the world, including photos of those families outside their homes with all their possessions from inside their homes. It's quite startling when you see the contents of the typical North American or European home, compared with that from countries such as Nepal, Guatemala and others.)
Happy Travels.
