Pokemon was the first thought because it seems obvious, but I'm not sure it'd be the one I'd actually choose though I haven't given it much though.

Persona is a bad answer in the long run because if you're not a Persona user or an S. Link, you end up getting a pretty raw deal because the general populace always gets sucked into whatever the big bad's scheme is.
