That earnest, hopeful look of hers puts Manabu in a tough situation. See, if it were up to him, he'd be more than happy to assure her. That's the natural, determined optimist in him. But...he really doesn't know for sure. He can only go by what he's lived through, because the rules this particular train plays by? He hasn't figured them out yet.
Despite this, though, Manabu is still Manabu. He gives her a warm, certain smile when he turns back to her, nodding.
"I really do," he assures. "Nothing's come up that's proven me otherwise."
Granted, nothing's come up to prove him right, either, but...glass half-ful.
