    Video albums

    Music videos

    Unlike many popular musicians, Kokia does not have very many music videos. She has three main eras of music videos: her initial Pony Canyon era clips, videos filmed when under Gai Records management and videos filmed while working with Mother Land management. Since switching to her self-managed label Anco&co, Kokia has only filmed one music video, "The Woman," while in the Tunisian Safari.
    Kokia's Pony Canyon videos were featured in the DVD on Kokia Complete Collection 1998–1999. Her Mother Land videos were compiled together and released as Jewel: The Best Video Collection in 2006. Her Gai Records videos have not been released to DVD.
