Your profile is good.
Even though you don't have advanced math&econ courses, strong recommendations, I'd say you deserve a better program.
I'm not saying this program is not good. I mean, the qualify of this program is good. However, this is just an ad. Considering the high tuition and living costs in Tokyo, life will be hard. If you can pay $$$, then why not try US? (as expensive as todai, better reputation in US and also China) And why not try Europe? (less expensive!)
As of professors who put their students' profile on their own website, this is quite common in Japan. Also, Japanese professors here (in US) also do such things. I'm not sure how strong it will be.
It seems that you have determined to accept this ad? Then my suggestion is: apply for as many scholarships as you can. There are many kinds of scholarships in Japan. As long as you have money, this will be a pretty nice program. Believe me, money talks a lot.

1. not that many master econ in US is better than it. I guess less than 10.
2. it is much cheaper......even without scholarship....tuition of 500K+ JPY annual is around 4500 USD per year only.
3. Money talks a lot......and thus don't go US for a master in econ for academic purpose in general......
