Composition "Gimme Chocolate!!" is composed and arranged by Takeshi Ueda of The Mad Capsule Markets. Described as a kawaii metal song, the band's manager Kobametal considered it closest to a pop crossover, like "Doki Doki ☆ Morning". The song begins with elements of thrash metal. During the verses, Mizuno and Kikuchi shout onomatopoeias such as "Atata tatata zukkyun!" (あたた たたた ずっきゅん!) while the chorus showcases the vocals of Nakamoto with a quick transition to pop melodies and a major key, with the phrases transitioning back and forth several times. The lyrics talk about girls struggling with the pressure to maintain their figures, or as Nakamoto explained, "[The lyrics of the song are] about girls and women who love to eat chocolate. But they are […] afraid about putting on weight."
