Hi,
I checked in our site and there were no vacation rentals available for such long durations (there is a law in Japan that prohibits owners from renting out vacation rentals in most places for more than 180 days total, in a year).
Here are some listings that might suit your needs.
https://vacation-stay.com/listings/501 => A bit expensive, but seems like a good location
https://vacation-stay.com/listings/2071 => Reasonably priced, but its quite far away from the olympic action.
If you are looking to stay in the same place for a long time (ex. more than 30 days) then a monthly mansion might be better.
It is like a short term lease and there would be much more options available.
You can see some examples here (I selected areas in Tokyo within 5 minutes away from a station and which are foreigner friendly). Unfortunately, the site is all in Japanese and does not contain accessibility information.
