Gold Digger (ゴールドディガー) is the main antagonist of the eighth episode of the 1994 action adventure OVA "New Cutey Honey" (aka. "Shin Cutie Honey" / 新・キューティーハニー). She is voiced by Yuri Amano in the original and Kim Sevier in the English dub.
History[]
As her name would imply, Gold Digger is obsessed with gold. She manages to incapacitate an elderly scientist named Doctor Kabuto and steal is teleportation invention "ISRAM" by posing as one of his fans. After learning of the crimewave happening across the city involving stolen gold, Kisaragi Honey offers to help the scientist.
Honey and a former minion of Dolmeck, Peeping Spider, manage to ambush Gold Digger right after she murders four guards to obtain an enormous amount of gold bars. Gold Digger uses her "Gold Flash" attack twice to blind the guards and then Honey - where her breast covers open up to reveal her bare boobs, and the insides of the armor generate a blinding flash. She runs out of power though and fights Honey using machine guns loaded with golden bullets harder than diamond. When Honey cuts her guns with her Honey Boomeraning, Gold Digger uses ISRAM to teleport Honey and Spider away randomly, where they end up inside a freezer. Posing as a gold statue, Honey later makes a second attempt, and is successfully able to get the invention out of her hands. Having no other choice, the villainess uses the power of Panther Zora to transform into a furred and scaled anthropomorph lizard monster. In this form she can raise golden slabs out of the ground, fling super sharp golden scales, and seemingly duplicate herself. Doctor Kabuto figures out that actually, Gold Digger's body constantly secretes gold dust, and the duplicates are just images she projects on the dust. Peeping Spider helps Honey to filter out the wavelength of gold, and warning her where the real monster is, so Honey manages to wound Gold Digger with her sword several times. In desperation, the villainess grabs ISRAM to try and transport Honey to outer space, but is defeated when Honey destroys the device. This depowers and turns Gold Digger back to her human form, and the tears in reality (as Honey says, the revenge of her innocent victims) violently disintegrate body as she dies screaming.
