Yes, several times.

However, off the top of my head we only ever see the students attending lessons for Yuta's "introduce yourself to class" segment in JJK0, and in silent montages.

This seems in line with most battle school-themed serials I've seen, that will have one maybe two scenes total with a teacher providing lessons in the classroom throughout their entire run. I peg it on Japan's obsession with highschool being a ball and chain for authors not actually interested in school settings (or depicting the boring parts of thereof at least).

This is accurate for JJK I believe , Gege was never going to add in the school setting, it was a mandate from his editors.

I thought Rika disappeared at the end of the movie? She's back now?

tfw you're peeing next to someone in the lineup and they don't know
It's Rika as manifested by Yuta's cursed technique.

Like, you could care, that's a thing you can do, but there's really no reason to, nor can I think of a good reason to spoiler tag it. It's just Anime Nonsense, he still has Rika, that's really all you need to know logistically.

There isn't some story tied to it or anything.

This makes sense if it's true. It's always so bizarre when they refer to "Jujutsu High" when they're clearly secret shadowy cabal government workers. Chainsaw Man supremacy yet again!!

It works for MHA because they're explicitly normalizing hero society.

What exactly is his cursed technique because the last fight of the movie made it seem like he can just do whatever he wants

That was news to the audience, and the way it was written made me initially think Yuta was responsible for loppin em off.

you get one very small hint that Inumaki might be hurt/dead when Sukuna uses his Domain and two girls talk about a "guy with a megaphone" being close by.

other than that no.

It's actually a massively wealthy land endowment scheme (huge land holding in tokyo??? they're richer than god)and they call themselves a high school to dodge taxes. all this curse stuff is window dressing.

He (Rika) copies the abilities he sees, but in a more limited form and without all the "spent years learning the ins and outs" knowledge. He didn't have the amount of control that Inumaki does, when he was using the conjured megaphone.

He also doesn't seem to take the blowback that Inumaki suffers either when using his technique.

The only true limitation that I'm aware of is, he can only fully control "Rika" for 5 minutes I guess? Which is a central part of his copying ability, since it's the manifestation of Rika that is doing it or otherwise completing the set of requirements.

Idk. Yuta is surprisingly vaguely written, and he's so powerful as a character that Gege can't really even use him that much. Which was also the main issue with Gojo, and as a result, neither fit very well into the overall narrative.

Yuta mostly exists to do Cool poo poo and then gently caress off for large stretches of time for Reasons.

The animators did say they were only able to get like 80% of that fight finished or something along those lines.

Sukuna looks so loving clean in that first one.

I thought it was some crazy lower number like 30% which tracks with how insane those clips look

I love how Sukuna is doing fake-outs by performing the gestures but not actually activating his technique. I guess he's testing how Mahoroga would react? That's an awesome detail.
