    1. It's strange they have so much emotions in manga, anime and drama, but in real life is very composed... In the end, even one of my Japanese professors couldn't stand me and told me to be less childish and don't act like a comic character...

    2. Ha, it depends on amount of consumed alcohol. More alcohol - more emotions.

    3. Well I asume that in anime and manga they are all emotions is because of just that, because they usually don't express them and is very human to do so, that they repress those feelings and a way to just pour them out in there, in animes. Is like the guys who play D&D, they do all the things they wish they could do in real life, because after all, is a carácter, not them.
