Hi there!

A shinkansen return Osaka - Hiroshima will set you back around ¥ 19,500

A 4 day Sanyo Pass is ¥ 20,000 is this may be interesting if you would do more travel with it, It also covers the Ferry to Miyajima (which is ¥ 1,140 for a return from Hiroshima without the pass).

You may also be interested in the Nation wide JR Pass which is valid for 7 days and ¥ 28,300 which all together is a much better deal. You could even hit up Tokyo if you have an other free day!

I hope this helps!
Daniel
