Even after the second bomb, Japan almost faced a military coup in order to keep the war going. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyūjō_incident
They were not going to surrender without a massive show of force because of their culture.

They had literally agreed to surrender before the first bomb dropped, their only condition being that the emperor remain, which the US agreed to anyway.

In our timeline, after two nuclear bombs were dropped, a coup almost happened that would have blocked the surrender of Japan. Would it have been different without the bombs?
