My understanding (someone correct me if I'm wrong) is that this is only for someone showing symptoms upon arrival. If you are trying to do that instead of taking a test before departure due to not meeting the vax standard, you probably won't even be allowed to complete check-in or board your flight.

This is from JAL's website

COVID-19 testing after entering Japan

Passengers who are required to isolate on arrival will be tested for COVID-19 infection at the arrival airport. You may have to wait for a lengthy period at the airport until the test results are ready.

If the test result is positive, you will be required to stay at the facility specified by the quarantine.
Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare of Japan
and this is from the Ministry of Health website

  • Those entering Japan with symptoms of suspected COVID-19 infection will be tested upon arrival. Furthermore, those who test positive will be required to quarantine at a designated facility.
