[ATC] JA722A Tokyo Tower. Good evening. No.1, taxi to holding point C-5.

I feel like I would have held short and reported there. If they wanted me on the runway I'd expect a 'line up and wait' instruction or a 'cleared for takeoff 34L'.

Don't confuse me for an expert though, my qualifications for these comments is I've spent way too much time watching vatsim videos.

Agreed, I would hold short of the runway at the stop line before C-5 and use that verbiage when reading back to ATC.
