For me it’s Dragon Ball Z, that was a pretty fucked up show tbh.
Like holy shit, all the characters are terrible people except maybe Gohan and Trunks.

Every time I hear someone claim that entertainment has no effect on people’s attitudes, beliefs, or behavior, I can glance back in time at the cultural ripples that occured each time South Park programmed its consumers to do something like, say, dismiss climate change entirely as a concept by getting credulous smug “nonpoliticals” to say “MANBEARPIG LOL” to terminate further thought.
Or that time they popularized redhead hate in the US
I didn’t even know redhead hate was a thing or have to hear about it until that episode aired and then it was everywhere around me “as a joke” for a while.
