There seems to be a common misconception
to think as if it were always possible to tell the total JR regular cost by adding up JR fees for each leg.
A 7-day Ordinary-Class Japan Rail Pass is not likely to save greatly your cost
on traveling from Tokyo via Matsumoto to Osaka then back to Tokyo.
Especially if you stay overnight near Shinjuku Station,
you can take one Limited Express train directly from Shinjuku to Matsumoto,
in which case your JR regular cost is estimated at 30950 yen per adult.
A 7-day Ordinary-Class Japan Rail Pass is sold at 29110 yen,
though you pay for your Passes highly likely in a foreign currency.
http://www.japanrailpass.net/en/about_jrp.htmlA Japan Rail Pass does not allow you to use Nozomi on Shinkansen;
direct Hikari trains are much less frequently available
between Nagoya and Shin-Osaka and between Shin-Osaka and Tokyo.
If you don't plan to add a trip with a JR long-distance ride,
it may be better to travel with JR regular tickets and have a wide range of choice of Shinkansen trains.
Which terminal(s) of which airport(s) will you fly into and out from?
What areas in Tokyo and Osaka will you stay in?
