Do I need a Japanese visa to transfer from Shanghai to Chicago at Haneda Airport in Tokyo?
No need.

According to the personal library, passengers who transfer in Japan can stay at the airport for 72 hours without a visa, and do not need to apply for a Japanese transit visa. You can transfer directly at the airport, but you will be asked to pass the security check again. As long as you pass through Japan on your way to a third country, Japan is an international airport and you don't need a visa to transfer.

Transit visa refers to the visa that citizens pass through a third country (region) after obtaining an entry visa from a certain country (region). Some countries stipulate that passengers who stay in transit for no more than 24 hours or a certain period of time by means of transportation can be exempted from obtaining a transit visa (generally not allowed to leave the international airport). Transit visas, like entry and exit visas, have provisions on validity and stay period.
