We had our interview today, 12/20/15 my time, 12/21/15 her time in Tokyo. The appointment was at 9:15am and my fiancee got there around 8:45am. Once she arrived she went through the checkpoint and got a numbered ticket (#39) then gave an employee some of the papers such as her passport and DS-160 and I-134 and went and sat down. Then after waiting they called her number again and she went and got fingerprinted. She sat down and waited some more and they called her number a third time and she went into the interview room. She said it was an open room kind of like a bank, with everyone giving their interviews. She went to the man who was interviewing her and she stood while talking to him.
He asked her to basically swear-in and promise to tell the truth and that all the paperwork was up to snuff. Then he started conducting the interview and only asked her a few questions. The questions that she remembers were:
How did we meet? To which she replied about meeting in college and I took her on a date. He then asked where the date was and what we did and she told him we went out to dinner and had a few drinks. He could tell she was nervous and stumbling over her words, so he asked her what kind of beer was famous in the town where I'm from to kind of lighten the mood. She said she felt a lot better after that.
What are my hobbies? To which she told him some of my hobbies including music and movies. He then asked what my favorite movie was and she blurted out Star Wars. The correct answer would've been Kill Bill Vol. 1 but at least she gave him something!
That was basically all he asked her and didn't ask for any evidence, any proof of relationship or letters of intent, no photos or Skype and chat logs, nothing else. She said the whole interview took less than 10 minutes and she was there for a total of about 2 hours.
She did note that you can see the interviews taking place from the waiting room and could interviewers 'looked kinder' than others, and some asked more questions that others. She also said that the interview was conducted in English and he didn't even ask her if she would prefer to do it in Japanese or English. Overall it was a very easy experience.
