If I could do a documentary on anything it would be on Pokemon and how it has effected society. Pokemon has influenced most of the modern world. It has become so widespread and well known in a short period of time. It started out (at least here in America) with an anime and game boy game. In weeks everyone knew about it. While it's popularity has declined since its depute, new games and episodes are still being released and sell quite a lot. They also have things like stickers, binders, pencils, shirts, and many others with Pokemon on them.
The immense popularity and unique game play of Pokemon is just part of the reason why I would make a documentary on it. The show also had some philosophical portions in it. One that comes to mind is how Ash Ketchum, the main protagonist, wants to evolve his Pikachu with a thunder stone but Pikachu refuses. Pikachu likes who he is and does not want to change to become more powerful. He touched on topics from friendship to slavery.
