[He certainly hasn’t accepted anything… and it will probably be some time (and a large struggle) for him to accept it at all.]
Is it inevitable though? Or is that simply something that someone else has convinced you of?
[Instead of addressing his own denial (though the fact that he doesn’t speak to it is telling in its own way), his tone is even. Hanako can’t help it. Simply because someone told him ‘this is how it’s meant to be’ when he had learned otherwise over the past fifty years… he couldn’t accept that kind of outcome for Yashiro.
The boy knew somewhere deep inside that he wasn’t the same as when he had been the first time he died. Things had changed, memories had diluted with time. What sort of person would Yashiro become if they took that from her? Change itself might be inevitable, but he didn’t want anyone to force that one her.]
