One of her productions from May 2006, I Ecstatically Pleasured Myself in Front of My Boyfriend, uses the documentary format popular in many Japanese adult videos. The plot focuses on her life as an AV actress and contrasts having sex with her boyfriend in private versus sex with an actor in a video scene. In another h.m.p. video, She Loves Outdoor Sex!, released in February 2007, she leaves the studio for some outdoor locations.
Coda also was part of a controversial venture by h.m.p. to offer adult videos for UMD

Play Station Portable (PSP). She starred in 5 UMD videos released between September 2005 and April 2006.

" at the time of her arrest.
At her trial in Tokyo District Court in December 2008, Coda, who admitted the charges, was found guilty and sentenced to 18 months, suspended for 3 years. She said her drug use was precipitated by a number of factors: loneliness, her grandfather's death, her mother being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and her breakup with her boyfriend in 2007. She planned to return to her parent's home and might go back to her studies. Her mother, who testified for her at the trial, promised to aid in her recovery. No mention was made of Miyao who had a separate trial.
A couple of months after her December trial Coda was once again arrested on drug possession charges. At her trial in Tokyo in April 2009, the prosecution asked for two years but the judge imposed a 16-month prison sentence telling her that this was a good time for her to get off drugs. Her fiance testified at the trial as a character witness.
