Bubblegum Crisis 2040 is an alternate-universe spinoff to the original Bubblegum Crisis anime OVA series.

AIC obtained the rights to the series when Artmic dissolved in November of 1997. Although the original series had not sold well in its initial run in Japan, it had done rather well in the US market of the early 1990, being one of the earliest works of anime to be commercially subtitled there. The US anime-importing company ADV Films funded the creation of an all new Bubblegum Crisis. BGC 2040 ran for 24 TV episodes and two OVAs.
