I do not agree that time will loop. There just isn’t time enough for it to happen. A ridiculously long period was mentioned by 790 in season 2 when he said that he’d see Xev in the next cycle of time. Something like 14 million years or so. I forget. But seeing as how it’s only been just over 4000 years from that point, it just doesn’t add up that we’re into the next cycle. It’s true that there have been unusual circumstances with the destruction of the Light Universe, but as everything that has happened in LEXX happened once before, it’s already been factored into the equation. The Light Universe would have been destroyed in the previous cycle of time. It could be argued, perhaps, that the final episode will conclude with time ending and then beginning again, and that’s perhaps out of left field enough to happen (even though it grossly contradicts what was said before), but most of the arguments I’ve seen have postulated that somehow the destruction of the Light Universe caused the cycle to begin again, and that we’re already *into* the next cycle. Unless there’s some time-traveling going on (which surely isn’t the case, as the Beans have adamantly sworn to never do time-traveling), there’s not enough time for Earth to have been born and developed to the point it’s at now (not everyone on Earth woke up there after escaping from Fire and Water). It just doesn’t add up at all, no matter how you slice it.
Kai will die, though. Finally. He’ll be really and sincerely dead. Stan, Priest and Bunny will, at least, live. Xev, it’s 50/50. I’m betting on survival.
