Ahh, I never posted about how I discovered the old BGCC site and forum here. I originally first saw 2040 sometime mid-2001 on SBS (episode 14 I think) but I wasn't that interested in anime at the time (and I didn't know what anime was either) so I never continued watching it.

When it was re-aired over 3 nights as a marathon later in the year, I happened to watch 90% of the series seeing how it was during the school holidays at the end of the year and I stayed up really late to see what was on TV. I got hooked with the series that I decided to record it on tape, ironically started at episode 14 as well. A few months later I decided to do some research on the series and found the (now defunct) BGC Top 100 websites which lead me to BGCC and The Perils of Nene-chan.

Both had quite a vast amount of information and pictures so I lurked around those two sites for a while (maybe around 1 year) before Perils of Nene-chan closed down. After that, I searched up for other BGC sites but most of the ones I found were either dead or under construction at the time, leaving BGCC the only active site that I knew. I lurked around the BGCC forum for like a month before I decided to join in the discussions without introducing myself at all XD and I'm still here today.
