Hi there,
I would certainly recommend purchasing a JR Pass, your shinkansen tickets will be very expensive. Deciding whether to upgrade to the green car is up to your preferences - all of your train journeys will be quite long and so if you prioritise comfort and quiet it seems like a good idea.
Hope this helps!
