Hi there,

Kagoshima (Kagoshima-Chuo station) is the first station for the Shinkansen to Hiroshima and finding a seat will likely be easy. While reservations are not required, I would still reserve a seat, even if it is just on the day of travel.

You can find time table information here.

I would come at least 20 minutes (or 30 if you want to make a seat reservation) ahead of time to the station. This way you can reserve your seat and find the correct platform without having to rush.

Hope this helps,
Daniel
