Pretty easy 
I was there 30 minutes ahead of appointment time, and I got #12 waiting ticket. If I got there later, maybe I had to wait backlog.... It took only about 1 hour, much faster than what I heard. If you don't like to wait, I recommend you to get there earlier than requested!
They called me 3 times. 1: submitting doc, 2: finger print and 3: interview. At the interview, the officer asked typical questions only, such as "how did you meet?", "how have you been dating?", "did he come to Japan?", "did he meet your family?". And, since I met him during my business trip, I needed to talk about my job a little bit. Anyway, no need to be nervous

The interview was pretty short and quick. They asked me how we met and why we decided to get married and stuff like that. And they gave me back all pictures we sent... So I was happy about it 
The thing is we have to wait a while to our turns.... I waited for almost an hour or so until my interview. Total wait there was 2-3 hours.... So good luck everyone!

I was the petitioner and I visited my fiancee and accompanied her to the interview. The embassy website makes it sound like you can get an Expack 500 anywhere. This is not the case, so don't wait till the last minute to get one. We got ours at a Lawson (after trying many other convenience stores), but it is actually a Japan Post product, so any post office will have it. We arrived on time and waited about 2.5 hours total. The security checkpoint won't allow outside food or drink to be brought in, but there are some drink vending machines inside. Although the signs say to assemble your documents before entering, you can enter first and then assemble your documents in order with a checklist which they provide you inside.
1. Pay your fee at the cashier as soon as the cashier opens which is 8:30 or so.
2. Wait to be called for your documents and then hand them over.
3. Wait to be called for fingerprints (all ten).
4. Wait to be called for the interview.

No complaints. It took almost 2 hours from arrival to leaving. Interview last about 30 minutes. They asked the following questions:
Is the name of the USC you intend to marry [Petitioner's Name]?
What is your fiance's occupation?
How did you and your fiance meet?
Have you met your fiance's family?
They also accepted photo-copied duplicates of the notorized I-134, letter from my bank, letter from my employer, and updated letter of intent to marry. Though, I sent the originals a few days before fiancee's interview, just in case. Said we'd have our visa within a week.

My interview was quick and easy.
The US Embassy in Tokyo has a photo vending machine (if you're having trouble finding a place to make the size of pictures needed, drink vending machines and restrooms.
Once inside, I took a number and a very nice Japanese clerk asked my name. Then you pay the fee of $131 or the equivalent in yen. I paid in US dollars.
The first time my number was called, I turned in all my documents. Then the clerk asked me to sign the DS-156. The Japanese clerk took care of everything else.
The second time my number was called, was to take my finger prints; left 4 fingers, then right and both thumbs. It took about 2 minutes or so. An American lady with her nose pierced did this part and she was also very nice.
The third time my number was called was for the interview. My interviewer was an African American male. He asked:
How did you meet her?
How long have you know... read complete review
