The people in the world of SnK don't act like people did in the middle ages, we know how people in the middle ages acted and lived, it's called
history. I'm pointing out that your comparison is wrong, that's all. Post-apocalyptic future could be just about anything indeed, it's fiction.
Yep a Japanese actor unconsciously putting Japanese thinking into his works is a pretty normal thing. Westerns authors could do the same while trying to write Japanese characters.
But apparently some people took this simple observation to heart and feel the need to transform this into a "Is this story in the past or future?" debate. Which is inane as we don't know either way. At the end of the day I think this is post-apocalyptic future, based on our earth, I've made a post above detailing why. PS: I love how you conveniently ignored all my points. There's nothing left to do but to watch the show and see how it rolls out, we'll see who is right
