If you really want to save money, consider using a Willerexpress bus pass for moving large distances. In Kansai look into Kansai Thru Pass or Kintetsu Rail Pass, but only if you´re planning some longer trips (Himeji, Koyasan). Otherwise regular tickets will be cheaper, Kyoto>Osaka is like 400 yen one way.
Do get out into the wider Kansai, 7 days Kyoto will overload you with temples and there's jackshit to do in Osaka for 5 days.
>>
Tokyo -> Kyoto 14,500 yen one way (Est)

Osaka -> Tokyo 14,000 yen one way (Est)

This only covers the Shinkansen tickets. and costs about the same as a 7day jr rail pass.

(1WayTickets) + (21-Days-Bus/Subway/RegularTrains) =
(Est. 23,000 Yen) + (14-Days-Of-CommuteTickets)

or

(7-Days-Of-Bus/Subway/RegularTrains) + (14DayJRPass) =

(Est. 47,000Yen) + (7-Days-Of-Commute-Tickets)

or

21Day-JRPass = (Est. 60,000 Yen)

I want to at least experience a bullet train at least once haha. I dont mind even if its a lame experience. Thanks for rep tho!
>>
Pretty hard to estimate how much ill use the regular commute like buses and trains. Even harder when I do not know the prices. Anyone got ideas on how much regular trains/subway/buses are? Good estimate
>>

A lot. ~150-250/ride depending on the distance and city. Osaka´s subway in particular is retardedly overpriced.
