Some videos are also restricted by region now:

ご利用の国・地域からは表示できません
お探しのページは、ご利用の環境に対しては表示を制限しています。
詳細はこちらをご確認ください。

My account is set to Japan with Tokyo timezone, along with JP language, so I'm fairly sure it's IP blocking like #176. The videos respond with 400.

FYI: I learned recently you can bypass the region restrictions by spoofing the User-Agent header to any well-known web crawler.
