Wikipedia doesn't really say but I read that Mr. Roboto came from the name of DeYoung's barber, Mr. Roberto. But that is just where the NAME for the robot units in the story comes from. This song was written to sinc up with the Kilroy Was Here story and movie, focusing in on the part where Kilroy disguises himself as a Mr. Roboto and then later reveals his identity by removing his mask, etc. And there is Japanese in the song because Styx did a tour in Japan and wanted to put a little piece of the memories into their music.
