Ok, snark out of the way: You didn't really need to convert money to Yen ahead of time, much less what sounds like "all" the money you plan to use for your trip. When I went I just stopped at the first ATM I saw out of the terminal and took out money directly. Also there's plenty of ATMs around in 7-11s. But if your bank doesn't like that or whatever I understand.
That said: If you're worried about securing it get a night deposit bag like that. Steel braid reinforced with a locking zipper and just store what you're not going to use on a given day in that hidden in your room.
I would say don't bother with the Traveler's check at all. No one wants those things. You'll probably have trouble using them for anything. And your kinda SOL for what you don't use when you get back.
Also: How long are you staying there? If you're talking about trying to open a bank account then this probably isn't a short vacation, is it?
I generally bury my valuables (wallet, watch, etc.) deep in my bag before I get to the security line and then wait to go through the metal detector/scanner until my bag goes into the x-ray machine. That generally doesn't give anyone enough time to get into the bag before I'm through and waiting at the conveyor belt.
If that's not sufficient, I would think that placing your valuables in a locked night deposit bag and then placing that bag at the bottom of your regular bag with the key zipped into a separate pocket would make a successful theft almost impossible given the short time the bag is out of your possession.
