I don't see how stating the obvious is helpful.

I've set up Unbound as a recursive DNS server, but that doesn't do
anything to the fact that I can access these sites when I bypass Unbound
by setting another DNS (from my ISP for instance). That makes me think
it's not Pi-Hole or something else, but Unbound (a faulty setting of
mine? or a problem at the other side?) causing the problem. I can see in
the query logs they are getting N/A as reply.

And yet, another user with similar set up could reach these sites. I
already reinstalled and followed all the steps and still the same
problem with those... domains.
