Are early checked bags a problem?
My SO and I are extremely fortunate as well as excited to be flying ANA F soon. We'll be arriving at LAX airport around 06:00am because my SIL and her fiance have an earlier flight to NRT (08:00am) so we'd be at the airport killing some time with them but we wouldn't be able to pass security without checking our bags in. I've never checked in a bag so I'm not sure how it works but would my SO and I be able to check our bags in at 06:00am, while our flight departs at 11:25am? Thank you in advance

Check in counters only open 3hours prior to Departure time. I.e. 8:25am for NH005 to NRT, and 7:25am for NH175 to NRT.
So NO, you cannot check in at 6AM.
NH175 Los Angeles(LAX) 10:25 Tokyo(Narita) 15:25 +1day
NH005 Los Angeles(LAX) 11:25 Tokyo(Narita) 16:25 +1day
NH105 Los Angeles(LAX) 00:05 Tokyo(Haneda) 05:30 +1day

For USA airports, they aren't really set up for early check-in(or long layover) bags.
There is a small risk of your bag being set aside and forgotten
If you happen to be early enough where check-in is available for previous flight, ymmv on whether the agent will allow it (particularly in F)
