Your window to reach both cities is 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM in Tokyo, which converts to 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Los Angeles. You've got roughly 2 hours — enough for a focused daily check-in if you hold it at 8:00 AM in Tokyo (4:00 PM in Los Angeles). When booking, note that Los Angeles is on the previous day — it's worth spelling out the full date in the invite. A quick caveat — Los Angeles's clocks move for daylight saving and Tokyo's don't, so the times here are right for only part of the year.
