Ambiguous Time Period	comment	An Ambiguous Time Period is where the series takes place at a certain time in the past or future and in the same universe as ours, except for the story elements added by the author, but doesn't state anything specific. This is either because the time period is completely unmentioned, or because it's mentioned but elements of the story or Word of God state that the fiction uses a different calendar than ours. If dates are given, they tend to be kept as vague as possible, hence the ubiquity of non-specific years such as 199X and 20XX in fictional settings. Sometimes Anachronism Stew will unintentionally (and sometimes intentionally) confuse viewers into wondering when the work takes place. When the ambiguous time period is obviously not long ago, it's an example of Present-Day Past. Could also be an unofficial form of a Retro Universe. This trope is the temporal version of Where the Hell Is Springfield? Contrast Period Piece and Unintentional Period Piece. See also Like Reality, Unless Noted.

Word of God says that the aesthetic was meant to be anywhere from the 1970s to 1990s. The Unknown, for that matter, is an Anachronism Stew, featuring Americana from the Puritan days to the early 1900s. Justified, however, in being an Another Dimension (and possibly the afterlife).

Ambiguous Time Period / int_145d53f0	comment	Five Nights at Freddy's: Five Nights at Freddy's 4 unambiguously takes place in The '80s, before the events of the first game, but beyond that, it's unclear as to just what year it takes place in. At first, it would appear to be 1987 due to the teasers prior to the game's release featuring the number, toys of the Toy animatronics from the second game (which happens in '87) appearing, and the entire game building up to what looks like the Bite of '87. However, an Easter Egg reveals a TV advert/program that has a copyright date of 1983 — this, along with Fredbear having a restaurant open (when by 1987 it had been closed for years) seemingly suggests it happens on that year instead. Then the Halloween update added Nightmare BB (whom Scott considered canon unlike the other new animatronics), who looks like his Toy bretheren, seemingly putting it in 1987... only for Sister Location to have an Easter Egg involving the rooms from 4 appearing by typing "1983" on a keypad in the Private Room. Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location takes place after Freddy Fazbear's Pizza closed down, but due to its numerous iterations, it's hard to say which one specifically it refers to. The presence of high tech animatronics and even an A.I. guiding the player, as well as a voiceover from who is implied to be the Greater-Scope Villain suggests it happens in between the first and third games (thus the mid/late 1990s to the early 2020s), though the exact year is still unclear.

The first book The Falcon's Malteser was released in 1986, so one would think that the series would continue to take place during the 1980s, but then as the books were slowly released, they began to suffer from Time Marches On once the fourth book was released the 2000s. Then when the recent book was released in 2007, one of the brothers had turned an age. It's an '80s/'90s/New Millennium mishmash.

Ambiguous Time Period / int_1869a077	comment	Samurai Jack: Both Jack's home time period and the Bad Future he's sent to at the start of the series are pretty ambiguous. In his original time, Jack was apparently a contemporary of numerous different, conflicting cultures — for example, he trained in Ancient Egypt with the original Egyptian polytheist gods apparently still being worshipped while also being trained by Robin Hood, who lived many, many centuries after Ancient Egypt stopped practicing that religion. Then when he goes to the future, there's advanced technology and robots everywhere but many times Jack comes across villages which are essentially medieval with no modern trappings whatsoever. And the tribal village in "Jack vs. the Ninja" makes those look modern by comparison.

At Brooklyn, people are seen at arcade machines and playing classic Nintendo games, both of which were prominent in the 80s, yet Luigi has a cell phone that looks a bit too... modern to fit in that time period. The film's prop artists at least seem to think that it takes place in the modern day, as the pipes on the Bros' van are dated to 2021; if this is the case, the retro Easter eggs can be chalked up to isolated cases of people appreciating old media.

Ambiguous Time Period / int_1a76a111	comment	The Crash Bandicoot series has a habit of time skipping by years every new game, but never specified when the original game took place. However, this is averted with Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time, a direct sequel to Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped, which specifically dates the game in 1998 (the same year Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped released). The same game plays it straighter with the year for the Bermugula's Orbit world being dated as "???", though the amount of memorabilia found in Oxide's ship implies that it's set sometime after Crash Team Racing.

On the other hand, we have Orlencia which is straight up Gothic Victorian London that still use horse and carriages as a mode of transport. However, generally speaking, fans seem to point that the overall world is set somewhere between the 1910s to the 1920s given the prevalent use of Art Deco and some Art Nouveau designs.

Ambiguous Time Period / int_1fc67841	comment	Crictor was first published in 1958, but takes place during an unspecified time period. The style of dress favored by Madame Bodot and all the background characters (long dresses with high collars, sailor suits for the children, and everyone wearing a hat while outdoors) resembles the 1900s-1910s. The copious use of gas lamps throughout the story also indicates the late 1800s or early 1900s. Early automobiles and a toy pickup truck appear in the story, and Crictor climbs a utility pole to rescue a kite for a pair of children (though whether the utility pole holds telegraph wires or electrical wires is another question). Crictor also helps a pack of boy scouts learn to tie knots, though scouting didn't begin in France until 1911.

Ambiguous Time Period / int_23945975	comment	Disney Animated Canon: The Little Mermaid (1989): Most of the fashions and technology suggest an 18th century setting, but the film is littered with anachronisms, from Ariel's 1980s hairdo to her sparkly gown at the end, to her poofy Princess Diana-esque wedding dress. Also, Chef Louis seems to have walked out of a 1930s slapstick comedy. The Lion King gives no indication of what time the story takes place. There are references that hint it is set in present day and the Timon & Pumbaa cartoon series confirms this (though that show is very dubiously canon). On the other hand, since we never see any humans, it's still plausible to depict the setting as taking place in very ancient or even prehistoric times. Possibly the only clue we have is the appearance of Mount Kilimanjaro, which has more snow than it has lately (due to climate change), meaning it's not set in quite the present day. A lot of the Disney films have this; being fairy tales, they're just set "a long time ago." Sleeping Beauty actually does say "This is the fourteenth century" (though the fashion doesn't match) and newer films tend to aim for more historical accuracy (for example Frozen is set in the 1840s, albeit with some Anachronism Stew here and there), but most of the rest don't even have that.

Ambiguous Time Period / int_261c8d3f	comment	The Simpsons achieves this largely by virtue of being a Long Runner where the characters are Not Allowed to Grow Up — the earlier seasons in particular had deliberate elements of Retro Universe, but the show has been on so long and is such a venerable property that the established continuity often doesn't fit with the generally present-day setting. So, for example, flashbacks to Marge and Homer's high school days are still set in The '70s (except for one widely disliked episode that had them as college students in The '90s and another episode set in the 2000s), but flashbacks with Bart and Lisa as little kids are generally set in the Present-Day Past — although earlier episodes established their birth years as 1980 and 1984 respectively ("present day" Bart and Lisa are ten and eight, so that gap doesn't make sense either). It's probably best not to think too hard about it. This gets lampshaded in an episode where Homer's first kiss is revealed to have happened when he was Bart's age. It may have been in The '60s, The '70s, or even The '50s, as he puts it.

Ambiguous Time Period / int_2a8d8e6f	comment	Gotham's version of its title city has tons of anachronisms going on; the many retro touches include 1950s (and in some cases older!) music still being popular, mild disapproval (from other gangsters) of a woman wielding great power in the underworld, and Oswald Cobblepot's Ambiguously Jewish immigrant mother. Gotham City seems to have progressed faster on social issues than the real world and slower on others — as mentioned before, women holding positions of authority is somewhat looked down on, but homosexuality is rarely worth commenting on, even by the gangsters. Cell phones seem to phase in and out of existence as well, with Bruce and Selina scouring downtown Gotham for a phone booth in a Season 1 episode. The intent seems to be that Bruce Wayne is Batman in the present day, therefore this is "the past", but making it clear when in the past would tie down how long it's going to take Bruce to become Batman. note Most sources agree that Bruce's parents were murdered when he was eight years old, it took him 16 years or so to evolve into Batman, and whenever we read or watch a story about him he has been Batman for about 10 years. So a date sometime in the late '80s would sound about right... except Bruce is twelve when his parents die in this continuity, and some of the period-specific things shown on Gotham were pretty old-fashioned even then.

Ambiguous Time Period / int_3094005d	comment	Grand Theft Auto 2 is set in an impossible time with contradictory hints or statements. The introductory video was filmed in late 90s New York City and looks nothing like the game. The game itself is set in "Anywhere City" where several factions vying for control of the criminal underground, the largest being a company called Zaibatsu Pharmaceuticals. The city is generally has a Cyberpunk Used Future look to it, and the cars are designed with a retro-futuristic look ranging from 30s- to 70s-style vehicles, and including styles from America, Europe, and even Soviet Europe (exclusive to The Mafiya). More specific clues are: The leader of the Russian Mafiya is a former Red Army Soldier, implying it takes place within a lifetime of the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Promotional material for the game lists it as "3 weeks into the future", and a promotional website also references police records from 2013. A DJ on the radio mentions the new millennium is coming, which would put it just before 2000 or just before 3000.

In the Grey Ghost episode, there is a People magazine cover with him on it that dates the episode in late 1992 and "Joker's Favor" shows a still valid driver's license dated to 1991. But if the dates in Thomas Wayne's yearbook are to be believed, the series' "present day" is in the late 1940s. The Sequel Series Batman Beyond is set either 40 or 50 years after the end of Justice League Unlimited. Evidently, nobody involved with either show can agree on this.

This means that although The Lightning Thief was published in 2005, that's not necessarily when the story takes place, and it does not put Percy Jackson's birthday on August 18, 1992, given he is 12 years old during the events of that book.

Ambiguous Time Period / int_4118c4f1	comment	Treasure Island: The year is given as "17—" and the mentioning of King George not clarifying which King George it is, the setting could theoretically be anywhere from 1714 to 1799. Some textual evidence does allow us to narrow it down further, however - the suggestion that England is at war with France would imply a range of 1740-63. Bow Street Runners are mentioned, dating it to after 1749. Stevenson's treasure map includes a date of 1754, and Flint has been dead at least three years, so it must be after 1757. And since they visit a friendly port in Spanish America, it's presumably before Spain entered the Seven Years' War in 1762, so it most likely takes place in the last years of the 1750s or the first two years of the '60s. (The Disney version sets it in 1765, incidentally.)

Ambiguous Time Period / int_4456bd7b	comment	On Riverdale, an adaptation of Archie Comics, there are laptops, but old style cars are commonplace. A local gang are referred to as "greasers", and Jughead dresses in an emo style rooted in The '90s. The football uniforms look largely dated, but the students use modern slang, and attitudes towards sexuality and race are modern as well. The dialogue even explicitly states that the timeline takes place in the present day. The Season 2 premiere featured the Riverdale General Hospital, with doctors and nurses wearing 1950s-style uniforms. Really, it's a healthy mix of The '50s and the 2010s. Lampshaded when the drive-in is torn down because the times have changed.

You can tell it from the look of the cars, clothes, or domestic electrical. Additionally, Mrs. Frankenstein is a housewife, there is (save for Toshiaki and Nassor) a Monochrome Casting as the segregation was still in effect, there are no cell phones (but there are phone booths), people film in Super 8... It makes sense if you consider that Victor is an Author Avatar for Tim Burton, who was a kid in The '60s. And yet, Pluto's demotion from from its previous planet status is evoked, something that happened in 2006. Also, Bob suggests to use a computer simulation rather than being used as a guinea pig for the scientific experience of Toshiaki, while the Barbie doll Weird Girl is seen playing with has a contemporary look.

Ambiguous Time Period / int_4ba244d4	comment	Five Nights at Freddy's 4 unambiguously takes place in The '80s, before the events of the first game, but beyond that, it's unclear as to just what year it takes place in. At first, it would appear to be 1987 due to the teasers prior to the game's release featuring the number, toys of the Toy animatronics from the second game (which happens in '87) appearing, and the entire game building up to what looks like the Bite of '87. However, an Easter Egg reveals a TV advert/program that has a copyright date of 1983 — this, along with Fredbear having a restaurant open (when by 1987 it had been closed for years) seemingly suggests it happens on that year instead. Then the Halloween update added Nightmare BB (whom Scott considered canon unlike the other new animatronics), who looks like his Toy bretheren, seemingly putting it in 1987... only for Sister Location to have an Easter Egg involving the rooms from 4 appearing by typing "1983" on a keypad in the Private Room.

Consequently, the game includes not only elements that would feel contemporaneous to audiences in the game's initial release year of 1994, but also elements indicative of the post-80s cultural hangover that marked the early 90s and even aspects that were phased out by the 1970s, such as rotary phones and elementary school-age girls in bows and dresses.

Accompanying those are more modern or contemporary tropes, such as karate and 21st-century dance pop (which may or may not be perceptible to the characters).

Or rather, the opening scene takes place then; the actual events of the game take place later — implied to be much later. Yet the human world looks more or less in the current day, and technology sometimes seems to be a bit outdated, like the designs of the cellphones and computers.

At one point in the closed beta, the Lotus said that the Tenno had been asleep for 'centuries' but currently she says 'for generations'. Not helping matters are the fact that the Sentients are machines who have a form of Genetic Memory that means that experiences aren't lost over generations and the fact that there are living Orokin in the Origin system in the form of the Entrati family and Ballas. The most common estimate among the playerbase is that the Orokin empire fell about 2,000 years prior to the game starting, given how most people think that the Earth's moon is a myth. The only time the game averts this is when it's talking about a particular point in the past: Albrecht Entrati sent himself back in time to 1999 in an attempt to escape the Indifference, and if the teasers for that expansion are any indication, brought back some Orokin technology along with him.

There's also a number of socially progressive attributes to Blythe Hollow that would have been very unlikely in the 70s, like the town's only apparent cop being a black woman and homosexuality being publicly accepted enough for Mitch to casually mention his boyfriend to someone he doesn't know that well.

Dear Mr. M.: The action takes place somewhere in the tail end of the 19th centurynote O. mentions reading Tennyson's "newest poem" when she was 16, while he died in 1892, and the plot takes place when she's 23, and the letter itself is written somewhere later, probably after WW1, given a "modern" societal upheaval is mentioned. Fiery Tail: We don't even know when the main character was born, but it's vaguely implied to be in the near future. From that moment on, even more, unspecified time has passed, but given that Earth went through being hit by a swarm of asteroids, a new ice age as a result of that and then recovered fully from it, there is a good chance thousands, if not millions, of years have passed, while human survivors were stored on Space Arks for the duration.

This ambiguity serves several purposes: to appeal to a wider audience by avoiding specific historical markers, to create a timeless story focusing on universal themes and characters' experiences, to provide an escapist and fantastical atmosphere, and to allow for symbolism and allegory. While the exact reasons for the ambiguous time period are speculative, these factors contribute to the novel's enduring appeal and exploration of deeper meanings.

The oldest Sobornost Gogols that work in the Deep Time are believed to be at least tens of thousands of subjective years old.

Ambiguous Time Period / int_7ab10627	comment	Star Trek: The Motion Picture is set at least 18 months after the Enterprise returned from her five year mission, but beyond that, the timeline is somewhat ambiguous. It's generally assumed that Captain Kirk's five year mission as seen on the original live-action and animated series ran from 2265-70, but we don't know if the Enterprise returned home immediately thereafter, and whether she sat a while before the refit could commence in earnest. Originally, semi-official sources like the Star Trek Encyclopedia and Chronology placed it in 2271, i.e., assuming pretty immediate return and refit, but more recently, the timeline has been a bit more generous, either stating 2272-73 or just generically "the early 2270s."

The TVs are '70s at least, and play old black-and-white '50s features too often for it to be any sort of marathon or simple showing of classic movies. The cars are largely '60s designs. Our heroine visits a very retro movie theater with a live pianist. One of the main characters reads a book on a strange contraption roughly resembling a Kindle in the shape of a flip-mirror. Only one person is shown to have a cell phone. Not to mention the strange lack of black people in Detroit.

The ending also implies the game is a flashback that takes place at some point prior to the present day. A character in Far Cry 4 (which takes place in 2014) is heavily implied to be one of the villains from Far Cry 2 who has undergone a Heelâ€“Face Turn; he looks at least a couple decades older than the character in Far Cry 2 did. Given that the game is loosely based on the Sierra Leone civil war of the 1990s, this timeframe makes sense.

The simple costumes, rural setting, and old technology (including a horse-drawn carriage) are all pretty vague. Miss Gulch's outfit in particular evokes more of a turn-of-the-century appearance. Of course, it helps that the state of Kansas (except for Wichita and Kansas City, of course) is even in the 21st century a fairly sleepy place where things tend to stay the same.

The fashion is timeless, but the technology level is pre-mid 2000s and children are given more freedom than they usually are in the 2000s and afterwards. The plot of the series relies on it being set pre-2000s because most people wouldn't let 12 year olds babysit afterwards. Dated references from the original books, such as the insult that one of the parents doesn't know what Rainbow Brite (a 80s cartoon) is, are kept.

Ambiguous Time Period / int_8ac4e993	comment	Gundam takes place in the future, but thanks to their excessive use of Alternate Calendar (several, in fact) how far in the future is impossible to pinpoint. We do get a few clues, however: In Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket it's mentioned January 14th, U.C. 0080 falls on a Monday, while Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ mentions 0088 is a leap year. Apparently somebody once did the math based on this and found 2047 to be the earliest possible date for the changeover (technically, the earliest date would be 2019. The 2047 start date much touted in Fanon is based on some sourcebooks that give 2045 as the last AD date mentioned but don't specify when exactly the switch happened. Sunrise has since declared all timelines that mention the AD era non-canon, though, so now it's anybody's guess). Gundam Wing seems to take place in the mid- to late 23rd century, based off of two pieces of information: the novelization of the series mentions that the circus where Trowa Barton hides out is about to celebrate its 600th anniversary, and the circus' logo (seen in artbooks) has "Since 1667" written on it.

There are references that hint it is set in present day and the Timon & Pumbaa cartoon series confirms this (though that show is very dubiously canon). On the other hand, since we never see any humans, it's still plausible to depict the setting as taking place in very ancient or even prehistoric times. Possibly the only clue we have is the appearance of Mount Kilimanjaro, which has more snow than it has lately (due to climate change), meaning it's not set in quite the present day.

Thankfully, this is partially averted when one counts the class numbers for each batch of Ultimates over ever year (the newest batch before everything going to shit being Class 78), which at the very least puts Hope's Peak Academy's founding within the 1940s, which probably goes out of its way to explain the human experimentation and sheer corruption/inequality of the school.

Ambiguous Time Period / int_9db1766a	comment	The Devil May Cry series in general refuses to give an exact calendar, not even a fictional one, in any shape or form. The events in each game happen in a vaguely described "modern times" with the presence of technology and fashion that could be from anywhere in the eighties to the 2000s and beyond, most evident in 2, 3, and 5 with its initial urban settings before Dante and friends traverse the more demonic locations. The lack of cellphones in the series is the greatest barrier in any attempt to assume when the series could take place, since cellphones rapidly change over time more so than most other tech, thus seeing a model on-screen would greatly help any assumption. The indication of days and dates passing in 5 was the first time the series ever had something close to a calendar being taken into consideration. It's difficult to read exactly when the series takes place; the models of the cars and Dante's rotary phone imply that it must be the 50s or 60s, but then Dante's boombox (right next to a jukebox, mind you) means that it must be at least the late 60s, then Nero shows up in 4 with some very modernized-looking cordless headphones and it really becomes impossible to determine the time period.

The start of the "Old Stone Age" was dated to be around 2.5 million years agonote With anatomically correct humans only coming into existence 300,000 years ago at most while the Bronze Age was around 5000 years ago, in which the latter is defined as "early human history." The closest to the figure stated would be the formation of the homo sapien genus itself, which took place around 6-7 million years ago. Either this, or the story takes place in an unspecified far future.

Background characters often dress like people in the 1890s, but none of the main characters do, and people's attitudes don't seem to be any different from the modern day. It is implied that mid-20th century technology, including automobiles, exists, and city skylines are dominated by modern-looking skyscrapers, but we never see cell phones or even computers. Finally, when one character is sent to the past, she is stuck in what is very clearly Victorian times, yet is able to live long enough to return to the present, albeit as an old woman. Word of God says the comic was designed as a throwback to the old early 1900s newspaper strips, and so the setting could be anywhere between then and the late 2000s, when the comic was made.

Ambiguous Time Period / int_b36e3c22	comment	Noah is set at some time in the remote past (barring the possibility that what we're seeing is a post-apocalyptic wasteland, of course), but we're not told exactly when. The only compelling clue The Bible offers is that it's definitely taking place before the reign of King David (circa 1000 B.C.); beyond that things get very vague. And given the characters' tribal/hunter-gatherer lifestyle and the fact that agriculture barely exists, it's obviously happening before 3000 B.C. Finally, one animal seen fleetingly in the film appears to be some bizarre prehistoric creature, suggesting that the action is taking place at least several thousand years before the rise of human civilization. So this could be sometime during the late Paleolithic Era, perhaps a few centuries or so before the Western Hemisphere was settled, resulting in a date of, say, 14,000 B.C. (Of course, Jewish tradition — where the story of Noah originated — directly contradicts all of this by holding that the universe was created no earlier than 6,004 years ago.) Making things even more confusing is the level of technology that exists among the other sinful humans — a brief montage at the beginning shows what appear to be skyscrapers, but ones constructed primarily of wooden scaffolding and stone (something that has never existed at any period in human history), while Tubalcain's followers have metal armor and weapons, suggesting a medieval level of technology, but in very modern styles, with helmets that resemble SWAT team gear or welder's masks, and carry rocket-launcher like weapons that fire the glowing combustible rocks we see used as fuel and fire sources throughout the movie.

Even the one seen in Bob's office, despite its retro design, would be out of place for that time period. There's also VHS players, which didn't come out until late 70s. Further complicating things, the comics have cell phones and Internet, in line with late Noughties' technology (Violet has her own laptop, for instance) and the sequel having a villain named "Screenslaver". Not to mention that in both films, the technology utilized by the villains far exceeds anything we have today in everything from robotics to matter-manipulation. Brad Bird stated that the time period is based more on what people in the '50s and '60s thought the future would be like, so the setting being an Alternate History may justify this. Ratatouille: Considering the technology and vehicles, it would be easy to assume that the story is set in the 1950s-60s; however Gusteau's will is dated to 2004. This does corroborate with Ego's quick childhood flashback, as this was not how the world looked like, clothing and decorating-wise, in the 1910s-20s.

Most of the time it seems to be vaguely at the end of The Gilded Age, with a wealthy sawmill owner modeled after the Astor, Rockefeller, and Vanderbilt families, and cars don't decisively appear (ambiguously "a wagon" does but most people walk or fly with wings), as well as etiquette schools.

Given that 2002, the year the series and episode were made, was also the year of the 36th Super Bowl, and in-series five years had passed since "Super Bowl 100", this would make the show take place in 2071. Add 64 to 36 to get Super Bowl 100, which makes the year 2066 (2002 + 64), plus five years since Super Bowl 100 makes it 2071.

Most of the fashions are fairly contemporary, but with a fantastical flair, so that makes it harder to pin down the exact era. For technology, characters use varying styles of guns and rifles, cars are still around even if they don't look to be very common, and an electronic scoreboard is shown in a flashback. However, no computers, televisions, or cellphones are shown (in fact, Julie has to use a payphone in one episode).

However, as the manga progresses, it becomes clear that there are a lot of modern elements to the setting, despite the prevailing medieval aesthetic; television, video games, amusement parks, Idol Singers, high-tech sleep pods, and other non-medieval things (or Magitek versions thereof) show up regularly. The series tends to alternate between leaning on the High Fantasy elements and the more modern Slice of Life aspects depending on Rule of Funny.

Small references here and there, especially in later seasons, heavily imply that it takes place in the 2000s, though.

Ambiguous Time Period / int_d7081096	comment	The Mother trilogy indulges in this quite a bit: EarthBound Beginnings was originally set in 1988, but starting from the 1990 English localization and carrying into all later releases, this is changed to an ambiguous point in The '80s. However, since the game doesn't include anything that'd particularly date it specifically to the late 80s in the first place, it feels closer to 1980 or 1981 than to 1988, aiding the ambiguity in later releases. EarthBound (1994) is set in "199X", and goes out of its way to avoid any particular trends from the decade in order to feel just as applicable to 1999 as to 1990. Consequently, the game includes not only elements that would feel contemporaneous to audiences in the game's initial release year of 1994, but also elements indicative of the post-80s cultural hangover that marked the early 90s and even aspects that were phased out by the 1970s, such as rotary phones and elementary school-age girls in bows and dresses. Mother 3 takes things a notch further by outright refusing to give any particular indicators of a range of years, simply being set an ambiguously long point of time after EarthBound, though the modernized Tazmily and New Pork City borrow considerable elements from EarthBound's "199X'' setting as well as a few more additions indicative of the pre-smartphone 2000s, including cell phones with extendable antennae.

However, nobody knows how long in the "past" the background lore goes back — Word of God has flip-flopped on whether the Clans have been in the forest for fifty years or thirty, both of which are considered to be too short by fans considering all the leaders and generation gaps we know about. When you go all the way back — before the Clans were formed, before the Tribe was formed, back when their ancestors lived by the lake — there seems to be modern construction equipment; it describes yellow vehicles. Most people accept the series as taking place slightly in the future because of this, but it's not clear exactly when.

The 2047 start date much touted in Fanon is based on some sourcebooks that give 2045 as the last AD date mentioned but don't specify when exactly the switch happened.

Ambiguous Time Period / int_e035d18d	comment	Blood (1997) has an overall tone and feel that's meant to be reminiscent of the early 1900s, with a rustic atmosphere in the environments and rather old-looking weapons (the main automatic weapon is a tommy gun, drum mag and all), with later material claiming it takes place in 1928. However, technology from much later in the century regularly creeps its way in: one of Caleb's main tools is a Zippo lighter (1932), which he uses with one weapon to create an Aerosol Flamethrower (entered wide use in the 40s), his shotgun is based on a model from the 70s, the napalm launcher is entirely made-up but based on a technology that wouldn't become widely available until the 40s, and so on. And that's not even getting into the constant pop culture references to horror movies, most of which are well inside of the decade the game was made.

While it's made abundantly clear that the series is set Next Sunday A.D. to justify the odd legal system, there is only one explicit mention of what year an event takes place. The DL-6 Incident happened on December 28, 2001, fifteen years to the day before the end of the fourth case in the first game. All other events in the series are dated relative to this event. Also narrowly averted in The Great Ace Attorney. Although the year is never explicitly addressed, the inclusion of the Historical Domain Character Natsume Soseki as a character with a given age means that the first game is set in 1899-1900. (Apparently an alternate version, though, as there's a new building going up that didn't in real life and people are talking about things besides the centennial and The Second Boer War.)

The movie does a very good job of not tying the story to any particular time period, partly because the early 1990s (the filming date of The Fugitive and ostensibly its time period) was a fairly conservative era with very few particularly glaring fads or peculiarities and partly because a few subtle retro touches are slipped in, such as a Polish immigrant who can barely speak English and The Dragon of the evil plot being made up to look like a grotesque Film Noir villain. The most specific technology the movie ever calls attention to is computers — specifically, PCs with MS/DOS screens and dot-matrix printers, apparently putting the action sometime between 1980 and 1995.

Protagonist Harriet is a tween girl, and the film is narrated by an older Harriet, which may hint to a post-World War I setting (the film was released in 1951), but that's it.
