  • Panel 1

Explanation
  • Label: ジューレツチューシャ

  • Label: Violent beasts interrupt the death penalty :wink:

  • Panda: 夜露死苦!

  • Panda: Best regards! (Slang/pun for 宜しく/よろしく)

  • Panel 2

    • Penguin: じゃ そろそろ帰るよ

      • じゃ - then, well then, well, etc.
      • そろそろ - soon, momentarily, before long, etc.
      • 帰る - return home
      • よ - (assertive empashsi)
    • Penguin: Well then, I’m going home now

    • Panda: キューコウレッシャ?

    • Panda: Express train? (急行列車)

  • Panel 3

    • Shirokuma: がんばってね

      • がんばって - do your best, go for it, etc.
      • ね - right?, isn’t it?
    • Shirokuma: Keep at it!

    • Panda: こぐまのミーシャ?

      • こぐま - small bear/bear cub
      • の - (possessive/modifier particle)
      • ミーシャ - Misha (name)
    • Panda: Misha the Bear Cub (Anime title)

    • Penguin: どーも

    • Penguin: Thanks

  • Panel 4

    • Panda: ジューレツチューシャってナニ?

      • ジューレツチューシャ - parallel parking
      • って - (casual quoting particle; here used as the topic particle, I think)
      • ナニ - what (何/なに)
    • Panda: What is ‘pair of well park king’? (Literally ‘parallel parking’, but written this way this Panda doesn’t understand what it means.)

    • Shirokuma: 仕事しなくちゃ

      • 仕事しなくちゃ - must work (extremely shortened/casual form of 仕事しなくてはいけない, the “must do” form of 仕事する)
    • Shirokuma: There’s work to do (I’m a little unsure of what Shirokuma actually means here. He could be saying to Penguin, “you’ve got to work”, like a follow up to his がんばって above. But since it sort of looks like an aside, I interpreted it as him talking to himself like, “Well, I’ve still got work to do now.”)

  • Afterword

    • Bear Cupcake: ダジャレがこじれちゃった・・・
      • ダジャレ - feeble joke, bad pun (written in katakana)
      • が - (subject marker)
      • こじれちゃった - got complicated, grew worse, turned sour (past form of the short form of the てしまう form of 拗れる/こじれる)
    • Bear Cupcake: The bad puns got worse
