Your Tokyo days all look manageable.
Day 5 the deer park is in Nara which is a 2hr round trip from Osaka. Doable as a half day trip from Osaka I guess, if that’s the only thing you want to do in Nara but a waste IMO
Day 6 you might have a hard time squeezing in the aquarium depending how much time you wanna spend at Universal
Day 7 if you mean the Tori gate on Miyajima that’s too much for one day. Osaka – Himeji – Hiroshima – Miyajima doesn’t make much sense. If you go to Himeji early and get to Hiroshima in the afternoon you might have time to squeeze in some of the stuff you have planned for day 8, then spend most of the following day at Miyajima. They have plenty of deer there so again, if that’s all you wanted to do in Nara I would skip going there and party with deer at Miyajima
How are you planning on getting to Miyazaki? Presuming you mean the city and not elsewhere in the prefecture it’s like 4.5 hours on the train from Hiroshima, and getting to Nagoya the following day will be more like 7 hours. You’re barely gonna have any time there at all.
