You can use either! The Air France lounge opens about 3 hours before Air France and AirCalin flights, so depending on timings, you may only have the Delta lounge available to you.

The NRT lounges are considered some of the best in the DL network. The beer machine and snack selections are both good, though the selection of spirits and wine isn't going to overwhelm anybody. The DL lounges can get quite crowded at times, but the views are great.
As for the AF lounge, I haven't yet had the opportunity to visit.

At busy times, DL lounge might redirect you to AF lounge if you are a J pax without status. Argument is capacity.

I believe that there is also a KE lounge but this could be at the other side of the terminal. It was much less crowded compared to the others, but visit it only if you don't mind the distance to your gate.
Cheers!

AF lounge in NRT is the worse I have visited, JNB comes quite close too. Both are "new design lounge", very hard and uncomfortable seats, not possible to do anything as the "table" linked to the seat is very small, non practical and unstable since the seat itself is not perfectly stable: I would not put a glass of coke on it! spirits are mainly bad quality ones, snacks are on par with domestic AF flights, no urinal in men toilet, non working wifi... the only positive point is the beer machine that is fun 
I was happy to take the JAL codeshare from NRT to CDG, got AF miles but much better lounge, not talking about onboard service.

You obviously have never been to places like LAX...
I respect your opinion, but I personnally like the NRT lounge, although it get crowded rapidly, as other posters said. There is one thing I don't like in this lounge : for several years now, there is no more champagne displayed. You need to ask for a glass
