You missed Love Lab off the confirmed list.

I can confirm that KINMOZA! is region locked

Just noticed at the last minute (can't believe I missed that). I'll update on KINMOZA! but have you tried the method?

Yes you can bypass it
 
Star Blazers 2199 has been locked to zone A since the first volume, so volume 4 is highly likely to be locked as well.
 
Bit wank that the Star Blazers 2199 blu rays are locked, while the Japanese volumes are region free, plus no edits.

Can anybody confirm if Nadia works in the UK?
 
List has been updated with the following...

Fantasista Doll: Complete Collection
Love Lab: Complete Collection
Sengoku Basara the Movie: The Last Party
Senran Kagura - Ninja Flash!: Complete Series
Watamote: Complete Collection

Thanks to Bazza, Emo185, Mangaranga & Rosencrantz for the Confirmations. :)

Also, thanks to NormanicGrav for helping keep track of everything. :)

Is the Yuyushiki BD region-locked?

Just checked, no one has the series on Blu-ray so it's untested from what I know. I would say it's a 50/50 chance given that the series is available to us on iTunes.

I won't be getting my copy until December, so unless someone else gets it before I get mine, it'll be a while before there's any confirmation.

Are there any instances where the bypass trick doesn't work?

The only one that didn't work was Appleseed, which was released back in 2010 before the likes of Angel Beats (which worked) & others.

Blimey, only one. I wish FUNi had a similar bypass since most of the stuff I'm interested/buy in come from them.

Well I wouldn't say it was the only one (as far as I know out of all of the Sentai sets tested it was the only one that didn't work) but I would say the first Blu-rays Sentai brought out will probably not work with the Bypass. So that would be these few:

Ghost Hound: Complete Collection
Legends of the Dark King: A Fist of the North Star Story
Tears to Tiara: Complete Collection

Not long after that Canaan & Needless ended up working with the bypass (or Pop-up Menu).
