A translation is difficult because the title contains a pun. Like much of this information the following quote is from Steven Waldman:
The name of the restaurant, the Pizza Cat is supposed to be pun on Pizza Hut. The city they defend is called Edoropolis, where Edo was the old name of Tokyo. The city is a mixure of high and low tech. You'll notice many houses that look like old style Japanese houses, but with satellite dishes. The population consists of mechas (robots) who can grow up and age.
