What the title says.
I have been wondering for a while why the arrow keys are called "replay keys".
Just wondering if anyone knew.

If you look at the less sophisticated scientific calculators it is more convenient. There theres is only one display line. So if you want to go back to your previous calculations its a sort of replay.

OK, I think I get it. So its a not-entirely-perfect Japenese-English translation thing? Like test mode still having "Valiable Manager"?

As aapman55 noted, it is used for reviewing previous calculations in CASIO's single-line calculators. Some of them have an "auto-reply" button too: now "reply" alone makes sense. 
Valiable Manager is maybe some joke from casio's programmers left there for us.
