Attack on Titan is not in Japan, which is way it's Firstname Lastname even for the Japanese version. When an author thinks about the context of their stories sometimes they change the order to mimic another culture's standard.

But in Japan it's always Last name-First name in official document. And more often than not people will only know you by your last name, but it's changing lately with young people. (lived in Kansai for years, never used last names for people my age or where our "social status" was equal)
The safest route is to stick with last names until you know a person well or if that person gives you the "permission" to use their first name. Context is VERY important.

For fandom: best to stick to whatever the character is using. For example Midoriya Izuku, the protagonist of Boku no Hero Academia, is called "Midoriya", "Izuku" or "Deku" depending on the relationship. THAT is a very important detail to the story. (Deku is also his hero name, but I'm not counting that here). Bakugou calling him "Midoriya" would be a very huge mis-characterization (is that a word?).

TL;DR:
if set in Japan: LAST name + FIRST name
if set outside Japan: often FIRST name + LAST name
