Danshi Koukousei wo Yashinaitai Onee-san no Hanashi - Vol. 3 Ch. 73 - The Love Letter's Sender

"Are you the main character in manga or something?"

Well, I've got something awkward to tell you buddy
 
@Wordsmith
It could be one of two things.
1. The straight man of a comedy duo.
2. On some sites the reader allows users to post comments directly on the manga itself, and these comments are also called tsukkomis.
 
@Gimmy
So what you're telling me, Caim, is that they didn't feel like translating it to "insert your own snarky comment here"?
 
@Wordsmith
It doesn't exactly translate to "snarky comment". "Tsukkomi" is one of those words that doesn't translate well in this sense. But the general definition is something like "a retort", usually among comedy duos. Watch some videos of Japanese comedy duos, you'll understand a bit better.
 
D'aww!!! She's a cutie! If only the Onee-san weren't so good, I'd root for this girl!
 
@wordsmith Ever read a manga like D-Frag? It's the thing the MC does every chapter. Someone tells a joke (the boke), and someone else retorts (the tsukkomi).
 
Is this the beginning of the end for the manga? Because that's how it feels.
 
Yay, it's the cute girl!

I mean, unfortunate for her, but she's still welcome nonetheless. The fact that she's fixated on the boobs is pretty funny.
