It's used in speech, kind of like English contractions (I'm not instead of I am not), and it's formal, so essentially there are two situations when it's weird to use it:
1. In written speech. Contractions are verbal, not written, so it looks funny if you are writing a book or a letter.
2. In informal speech. です is formal language, so if I'm talking to a friend or something like that, it would sound overly formal.
If you're talking about manga or something, then the only indication is that there is a sudden stop in what the person is saying. Like "Wai--!" in English (for wait).
Usually it's just ãªãã£, though.
Unless you're talking about something else..? You can't throw ã£ã and ã£ã¤ around without reason, at any rate.
