That was my second guess, but it felt a bit too bland for a gag.

GolShi tried to abuse Rice's "blind"spot but ended up "blinded" by her own blinders and hence the wall crash.

+1 to Kaichou's pun list 'cause Shikaku(刺客) no Shikaku(死角) is the damned gag here.

How do you even translate this...

    Ants cannot eat chocolate due to the high amount of cocoa powder and caffeine; this last ingredient is particularly toxic for their small digestive system, mainly because they simply cannot digest it properly like we, humans, can do. Is worth to remember we are used to eating highly processed food, thus meaning the chocolate bars you can buy, for example, on convenience stores is filled with a great variety of chemicals and ingredients in order of making the chocolate more delicious and pleasant to our taste; some stimulants like theobromine, phenylethylamine, and others are added to induce cravings in humans, but they are not suitable for insects, and yes, this includes ants.

    For all those reasons, ants can potentially die by merely eating chocolate, and that explains why one of the ants is nervous and why the other is pushing the chocolate aside and is on the verge of tears.

    Interesting. Thanks.

    Pity, though ( if one wants to give them a treat... )

    I think in this particular comic we shouldn't think so much of them as real ants with the aversion to and intolerance for chocolate that real ants would have. After all, she looks interested in the chocolate to begin with, and the artist has been more than happy to show the ants enjoying human food in the past. Also, that doesn't really seem to fit the "punchline" of the comic. Rather, note the prominent reveal at the very end of the last panel: this chocolate is very pure, 96% cacao. There's a good reason for that reveal: chocolate that pure is bitter as hell.

    Verxina's status in the fanbase before Gentildonna was introduced:
    Cool doting onee-san.

    Poor Verxina's status afterwards:
    Useless rival.

    I guess this is what happens when one can compress an iron ball and the other is still stuck in the realm of a mere mortal... Not that that's gonna stop me from eventually pulling both of them when they drop

    I wonder if after the Gorilla Legend Race comes out we'll get a surge of Verxina reversal artworks, otherwise it will be unfair indeed.

    The fanbase also discover that she is a heavy siscon before Gentil (iirc it was when Cheval was released together with Verxina's sc)
