Is JR Pass the best option for this itinerary?

Hello - can you confirm if all of these legs are possible on JR Pass? Can you also point me to where the timetables are for each of these journeys so I can check the times we need to travel each day and where to reserve seats as a lot of this is during the Japan holidays?
Thanks very much! Ellie

  1. Hiroshima to Osaka - Tuesday 30 April late pm
  2. Oskaka to Kyoto - Thursday 2 May
  3. Kyoto to Kanazawa - Sunday 5 May
  4. Kanazawa to Takayama - Monday 6 May
  5. Takayama to Kawaguchiko - Wednesday 8 May (I think this is a bus, is this covered on JR Pass)
  6. Kawaguchiko to Tokyo - Friday 10 May
  7. Tokyo to Tokyo Narita International - Monday 13 May

Thanks Daniel!
We are travelling tomorrow and haven’t pre-ordered the tickets. Do we have to have bought them before arriving to Japan or can we buy from Hiroshima Airport/that train station? It’s not clear but when I enter the dates in the order function on this site it only gives a start date on 3 May.
Thanks, Ellie
