I can't comment on the MH J seats/service. Perhaps by next year. Agreed I find the CX regional (lounge chair type) seats comfortable.
However if you have issues with shortish flights at anti-social hours, CX may not be the best choice ( at least on the return flights). At the moment CX only has the one flight per day. MH has a somewhat better choice of times.
It will be interesting to see what UL will offer when they finally join.
Happy wandering.

Keep in mind that CX is 15 to 16 hours total time, MH is around 17 hours.
UL non stop is 9:20 (4 x per week). They have flat seats on some of their aircrafts. Not sure what they use to NRT.

UL non stop is 9:20 (4 x per week). I believe they have older recliner style seats on the 340, whch should be as least as comfortable as regional seats on other airlines, but no personal experience.
