"It's what I'm afraid of," Togusa clarifies. "I don't have as much to go on, just the prevailing beliefs of everybody. It all seems to come down to one of three possibilities for when this process finishes."
He puts the teacup down so he can use his hands to illustrate. "One, that the other soul will replace our own. That our experiences don't matter, in the long run, and that as the other soul is replacing our bodies, we will cease to exist, too."
"Two, that we both exist, and that the other soul will return to their restored world, returning us to normal. Both our experiences matter, but are separate and discernable from each other."
"Three," and Togusa raises a hand to Koutarou, "that we are, as you say, recycled. That the both of us can coexist, with the experiences of our other being considered like a past life. And that we can continue on with our lives when this is done."
"I can hope for two or three? But I fear for one."
