Hi there,

For this trip I would buy normal tickets. A JR Pass would be useful if you made a return trip Tokyo - Kyoto/Osaka. If you place your itinerary on a map, then you'd see that it is basically a one way trip with different stops alone the way. Thus it'd be more economic to buy normal tickets.

Hope this helps,
Daniel
