In Shingeki No Kyojin's latest chapter (chapter 79), beast titan throws a
stone like he is playing baseball. But the story takes place in a time when
baseball wasn't even known. These are the pictures:

Is this a flaw or a problem in the Japanese to English conversion? (Maybe the
author did not intend baseball).

Or could it mean that Reiner, Bertolt, Annie and the beast titan are from a
different time-line? (I don't think it's possible. If that's the case, they
could have just used nuclear bombs instead of titans).

Attack on titan chapter 79: possible flaw?


It is heavily implied, that world where events are set is our world in distant
future. Remember castle Utgard? There was tuna cans with English writings only
Ymir could understand. It is just residents inside of walls being ignorant of
possible past knowledge, possibly due to memory manipulation.
