Sort of nitpicking here, but the apocalypse isn't 'unfolding' but has already happened so it's a POST-apocalyptic setting. And it's one where society has already been rebuilt (to some extend) so people behaving like we do now (joking around, talking about trends, celebrities, shows like Bugarally) is feels more natural. They already have those dark undertones with the Aragami gobbling people up all the time, and with Fenrir being more or less a Totalitarian rule where they can consript you at a moment's notice and force you to fight man eating monsters. There are more examples but I don't feel like typing all of it right now. I think God Eater has done well in balancing the fluff (as you call it. I can't really think of another word) with the dark stuff to show the post-apocalyptic world with a functioning society that they intended.

That being said, I won't object to more dark stuff as long as they don't make it too edgy (the MC design is kinda borderline edgy imo so I don't think that's a good sign)
