Dice Arisugawa, a.k.a. Dead or Alive, is a gambler and the third member of Fling Posse.
Official Profile[1]
An unreformable gambler, who constantly puts his life up to bet. Always looking for the next thrill, he gambles away his money and constantly goes into debt. With no permanent living, he’s always penniless and starving.
Appearance
Dice has blue hair in a half mullet over his right shoulder and fuchsia eyes with a green highlight on top. He wears a hair accessory on the left side with 12 gold beads, endings in a die with a red tassel. He also has noticeably sharp canines.
Dice wears a black long sleeved shirt, white ripped jeans that end above his ankle and black lace-up loafers. He has a silver belt connected to a black double belt set and a green parka coat with black fur on the lining of the hood and the Fling Posse gold star on the bottom left side.
Dice's Hypnosis Mic is a ribbon microphone with a gold accent around in the shape of a dollar sign. Dice’s speaker takes the form of a slot machine with multiple floating parts: three large 7s, dice and coins. The top has "Fling Posse" written on it.
Personality
Dice is an airheaded, impulsive, and boisterous thrillseeker, who makes it a point to live in the moment. He tends to rely on others for money, often having extreme reactions when it comes to how his money is handled, but regardless of how money smart he is, the main thing he cares about is sticking up for who he cares about.

Etymology
- Dice means "emperor" (帝) (dai) and "sum" (統) (su).
- His given name is an amalgamation of kanji from his parents' names: 帝 from his father, Mikado Asuka (written as 帝 飛鳥) and 統 from his mother, Otome Tohoten (written as 乙統女 東方天).
- Arisugawa means "exist" (有) (ari), "nest" (栖) (su) and "river, stream" (川) (kawa/gawa).
- Arisugawa comes from the Arisugawa-no-miya (有栖川宮, also known by its original name, Takamatsu-no-miya/高松宮), a branch of the Japanese imperial family that went extinct in 1987.
Trivia
- Dice's quote was originally from Bob Marley's song called Live A Life Of Love.
- In Hypnosis Radio, Dice said that he likes pretty much any food, except for wild plants.
- It was also implied that he eats grass, as he mentioned that grass is nasty, bitter and can't be eaten raw - he goes on further to say that the grass in Tokyo doesn't taste good.
- Dice's height, weight, birthdate and the name of his solo song all reference the number seven.
- Dice's name is technically read "Daisu" and is written in kanji, which indicates that it is not a foreign name, but no official source has ever translated it as such. His name was initially written as "Daisu" in the Division Rap Battle music video and Fling Posse -F.P.S.M- trailer.
- Dice has stated in his HYPNOSIS Wave episode that he can play piano and violin, but prefers to play unconventional "instruments", such as the grass whistle or empty cans.
