Don't forget the hilarious troll they used for the end song.

Well, that was bizarre. I'm not entirely sure I understood most of it. It feels like there's some folklorical stuff I don't know about obake that would shed some light on at least one thing in that short. And vending machine information I don't kow about.

It was very cute though.

In Japan. they have vending machines that have a roulette mini-game where if you win, you get a free drink. Obake-chan just has the luck.

And is there a chance of getting nothing instead? The knight wound up empty-handed both times.

Japan sure has weird rules on gambling.

Usually you buy one and play the mini-game. If you win, you get another drink. So you can get two drinks for the price of one.
