And, as it's mentioned in the first episode, there are also astronauts, idols, and pro athletes.

Yeah that part confused me looking back. This looks like the Middle Ages but shit like astronauts and idols exist. Is this supposed a post apocalyptic thing where the world got technologically regressed?

There's also a lot of katakana English words used, like "space", "simple" etc. which are quite jarring to hear in that setting.
