As of now we have:
Choji
Ebisu
Gai
Iruka
Konohamaru
Rock Lee
Shikamaru (he has his lazy schtick)
Kakashi
Sakura
Naruto
Jiraiya
Pakkun

Thats all I could think of, and even with that we dont need Tsunade to be cracking gambling jokes every 5 seconds. The episodes already get spread pretty thin, we dont need someone else cracking a joke every 3 seconds to take away from actual story.
thats quite exaggerrated
just because a character is funny doesnt make him a "comic relief" character....i would not consider iruka, shikamaru, kakashi or sakura to be comic relief AT ALL, and then half of the others you listed have a good mix of funny and usefulness....but a person who is "comic relief" serves no other real purpose in the show than to break away from the seriousness....like ebisu and konohamaru

however judging by the list you built.....wouldnt you add anko to it? since her entrance to the series was, as sakura puts it, "Naruto-ish"?
