Blue Lock chapter 208, titled 100, began with Isagi doing stamina training with Raichi and Igaguri, followed by one-touch pass and off-the-ball training. Everyone was mesmerized by Isagi's growth, following which he was seen discussing the same with Hiori Yo.

Isagi explained his meta vision and how he lacked a certain skill to defeat Kaiser 100%. However, after hearing Igaguri and Raichi's conversation over malicia, Isagi got an idea for which he headed to Kunigami for some assistance.
