Yeah, you shouldn't be getting UK APD if it's not a stopover to the best of my understanding. That's what's throwing it so far out of balance, your airline YQ/YR only appears to be 24,400 JPY which is pretty good. I had an overnight stop in April at LHR and certainly didn't have APD on my ticket (BA issued).
In the other cryptic fees, it looks like you might be getting hit with Qatar's passenger service charge twice, but maybe a travel agent can pipe in on that. I was able to find a list of all of those codes before to make sense of them but I can't find it now.
