[Minato stands still as he listens to Yu, already expecting the worst the moment he's told there's nothing he could have done. What he hears is horrifying, that of ghosts imprisoned in prisons without rest and of people dying to rescue them but it's only when Yu mentions dying that his breath hitches as if he was shaken out of a daze.]

I- [He starts to speak only to fall silent an instant later, realizing all too acutely that it's hard to talk to someone about dying. He's come to see so many ways in which people dealt with death; some cried, some said nothing, some succumbed to despair and wished for death themselves...but none of them seem right to him, not when he knows Yu could get himself killed for someone else and still think that he had some responsibility.

He's soft-spoken as always when he speaks again, looking directly at his friend.]
I think that you did your best given what you had, Yu-san. I don't know who Yuri-san is, but you must have thought of her and Mars-san as friends...it's never easy to stay calm when you see your friends dying in front of you. [Implicit in what Minato says is that he thinks he might have done the same, but he doesn't say that because this isn't about him.]
