The Japanese never offered any terms of surrender. Until the second atomic bomb they were preparing to defend the home islands until the last man, woman, or child died.

Why did Japan not surrender before the bombing?
Japan didn't surrender before the bombing because they wanted to get more favorable terms of surrender. The emperor wanted to maintain control of the nation and they did not want an occupation force that would keep them from building another military. On the other hand, the rest of the world did not want Japan to build their military and attack again, so the rest of the world required unconditional surrender. The Allies had already suffered enough loss during the war and did not want to send a million soldiers to their death in an invasion of Japan, so since the Emperor refused to surrender, the Allies used nuclear weapons to force compliance. There really was no other choice to President Truman at the time. The Japanese did not surrender because they had too much honor. Their emperor would not accept defeat and their people would fight to the death. They were not afraid and even after the bombs were dropped they didn't surrender. The Japanese surrendered because of the Soviet's threat to attack them.

What did the Japanese government agree to after the bombing of Hiroshima?
The Japanese government did not agree to surrender until August 14, 1945. The first A-Bomb was used against Hiroshima on August 6, 1945. Then the second A-Bomb was used against Nagasaki on August 9, 1945. After the second bomb, Japanese Emperor Hirohito broke with tradition & intervened to tell his government to accept the Unconditional Surrender to the US & its Allies. The Japanese government was controlled by the Army up until the Emperor intervened. Many in the Japanese government & Army wanted to continue the bloody war until the very bitter end (death of Japan's population).
What caused the Japanese to surrender?
The Allies and Russia overwelming Berlin and Germany as a whole, led to Hitler's suicide and, though some die-hard Nazis' fought on for a while, Germany had to finally capitulate and accept unconditional surrender. So ended the European war. The American bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki with nuclear bombs, finally made the Japanese capitulate and accept unconditional surrender. So ended the war in Asia. Let's hope we never have to use such a weapon in earnest again.
