A part from the blast radius being incredibly large to cover almost the whole of the cities bombed, atomic bombs were the start of nuclear bombs and the radiation spread caused many generations (without knowing) to become wierdly disfigured due to the effects of radiation poisoning/deforming. Also the fact that the bombing was un called for and had no warning at all, so the people there wouldn't have known anything about the bombing, it was just bombed randomly by America as the Japenese didnt surrender.
