I want it, but I can't find it...

seawasp... It being a soundtrack.
Now, I'm well known as a collector of soundtracks, mostly for SF/F films and various anime. And I have a fair collection in many ways, if I do say so myself (and, in fact, I DO say so myself!). There is, however, ONE soundtrack that has eluded me for over ten years now. I have never found a source for it. I know it EXISTS -- I knew someone -- unfortunately exactly WHO that someone was I cannot remember -- who had it, and I have verified that in fact there were no less than THREE soundtrack CDs produced for the show, but I have never seen a copy.
The show: New Super Android Cutey Honey.
"Cutey Honey" is something of a phenomenon in itself -- one of the earliest examples of the Magical Girl subgenre as a TV show, it has been reborn more than once. This was a series of OVAs starting in, I believe, 1994-95.
Periodically I post on various forums hoping someone will be able to give me a lead on a copy, or someone who owns a copy who's willing to let me copy it. (the latter was how I finally, after nearly as long, got a hold of the semi-legendary Airwolf soundtrack).

Anyway, count yourself fortunate that what you're looking for exists somewhere. They never published the Divergence Eve soundtrack other than the Nao Nagasawa songs.
Those...

They're in Japanese but you can get reasonable translations out of Google's translator if you need them.
