Undead 70: Spring plays chohan, the Japanese cup (bamboo cup usually) and dice game. You bet on whether the result is even or odd. It's an old form of bakuto (gambling) and probably the most simple. (It's more attached to yakuza nowadays.)

風子の不運(アンラック)の翻訳についてだけど英語では"unluck"とは単語として珍しくあまり使われていない単語で(名詞＝bad luck形容詞＝unlucky)そのまま直訳しては不自然に感じてしまうシーンに対してstroke of bad luck(不運の出来事)から採用したstroke of unluckにすることでその違和感を和らげる
