Simple and fast. If you happen to go to Japan and visit only Tokyo and Kyoto, the JAPAN RAIL PASS is not as convenient as you might think, also because the number of trains you can take is limited (for example, NOZOMI trains CANNOT BE TAKEN). Buying a TOKYO-KYOTO return ticket will cost you exactly the same as buying a JAPAN RAIL PASS, and will allow you to choose from a much wider list of trains.
