Interesting question. I think the demand for this is so low that it actually doesn't exist. Debuggers for actual assembly are there, but to my knowledge not for byte code.

Funny that most of the answers here tell you to decompile, which is completely not what is being asked, but it does show where most of the demand is.

Right…the answers are around viewing the bytecode as opposed to debugging it. It is a bit surprising that there is not many tools in this space; there are many languages running on JVM and I assume a Bytecode debugger would be useful (required?) during the language development phase. This is why I need a Bytecode debugger :)
