Editor's P/S
As a Gen Z fan, I am eagerly anticipating the release of Blue Lock Chapter 244. The series has been on a roll lately, delivering exciting matches and character development. Chapter 243 left us with a tantalizing cliffhanger, as Kaiser revealed that he has found a new weapon to defeat Isagi. I can't wait to see what this weapon is and how it will affect the upcoming match between Bastard Munchen and Paris X Gen.
I'm also looking forward to seeing more of the Paris X Gen team. We got a brief glimpse of them in the previous chapter, but I'm eager to learn more about their players and their strategies. I'm especially interested in seeing how they match up against Bastard Munchen, who are one of the strongest teams in the series.
