I understand there is a night bus that goes from Tokyo to Hiroshima, can anyone give me some information on getting from the airport in Tokyo to the bus station where this bus leaves from and my flight is coming in at 6pm and I notice the night train leaves at 9pm is that enough time to catch it? Thanks for any help you might be able to give me.
Leaving Chile and soon to be maybe even colder living in Hiroshima.

Can you read japanese? if so, you can go to Yahoo! Travel http://travel.yahoo.co.jp/there you can reserve buses from Tokyo to Hiroshima and much more. then you pay you reservation at any conbini, get your ticket, and that's it. rakuten is another good option: http://travel.rakuten.co.jp/there are many more options but these are the ones i use more often. if you need detailed instructions let me know!

It is possible to travel from Tokyo to Hiroshima using a night train. However, you'll be very tired. I suggest using a night bus, plane, or the morning shinkansen instead.
Below are possible ways using night train.
If you're using JR pass, take Narita express to Tokyo station. Then take the 10pm night train ''Sunrise seto'' (サンライズ瀬戸) to Fukuoka. You'll reach there about 6.30. After that, take Hikari to Hiroshima. This way, you can be there before 8 in the morning.
If it's acceptable to pay for a hotel. You may stay somewhere near Shinyokohama and take 6-am Hikari. You'll reach Hiroshima at about 10 am.
I'm not sure which 9pm train you're talking about. But please not that the number of night trains has been reduced recently. For more information about travel rout, check out here: www.jorudan.co.jp grace.hyperdia.com both have English version :)
