My hunch that the world set in a more modern setting comes from the very chapter (72) when the Survey Corps first embarked for the Shiganshina district, featuring Bertholdt and Reiner at the end of the chapter being on the wall. Something about the former does't look fit in the era. Berholdt's dress in that panel appears relatively modern and that pose, of him putting his hands in the pocket, is something that can only picked up in the modern fashion world.
