Above train journey will cost you 17,010 yen (US$ 149.16) per person if you buy a ticket for each train ride. 7 Days JR Rail Pass is US$ 255.00 per person.
Unless you are planning to do extensive day trips from Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka (enough that you likely will have no time at Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka) it will be better buying tickets for each train ride.
I even plan to get from the arrival airport (Haneda) to the hotel via taxi so the value of the pass is even less. But as things are likely to change once the governance steps in (aka my wife) ....
