If you can get to FUK, the shinkansen from Hakata (Fukuoka Station) to Hiroshima is just a little over an hour and under $90.00, not counting the link from FUK into town. I just don't know what connections you can get to FUK on AA. It looks like they would put you on an ANA regional partner for that last leg NRT-FUK.
Northwest can get you LAX-KIX via HNL but you be flying Northworst.
