Ayu only got the power to stick it to the avex execs after the Matsuura incident in 2004, and that was really only because she had made so much money and generated so much publicity for the company by then that they couldn't refuse her anymore. Koda doesn't have nearly that much power, especially since she was a minor artist for such a long time before getting popular in 05. While artist can play a big part in producing their music, they usually don't decide what they release, when, etc. That's their label's prerogative.
