No, there are no such tickets. A prepaid card is likely to come cheapest if you plan your days geographically wise. If you do a lot of side trips, a regional pass may be worth considering, such as the JR Kanto Area Pass or Kansai Thru Pass. It depends on the destinations you intend to visit.

Though there is no ticket that covers everything for your itinerary, you can ride a highway bus between Tokyo and Kyoto. That's the cheapest way.

If you can include one day trip to Nikko from Tokyo, trip from Tokyo to Kyoto, one day trip from Kyoto to Hiroshima within 7 days, 7 day JR Pass comes cheaper than standard tickets.

Daily transportation costs within Osaka, Kyoto, Tokyo aren't that expensive.
In Tokyo a 1 day pass for BOTH subway companies is 1000 Yen.
Depending where you are going that day, you might save money by paying each trip cash (or with a SUICA card). I do a lot of walking and may only use the subway 2-3 times a day.

In Kyoto a daily bus pass is 500 Y,
in Osaka a subway pass cost 800 Y. for the whole day.

I am sorry I did not properly ready your question.

It seems to me that the Japan Bus Pass could be a perfect ticket for your long distance trips, if you also visit Hiroshima:
