Isagi decodes Kaiser's genius as a god level way of seeing the field, naming it Metavision, and glimpses how fusing it with his own direct shot could give him a formula to conquer the world.
Summary
While spectators and players marvel at Kaiser's leveling strike, Isagi accepts he can never copy that unique shot, yet stays certain its secret is how Kaiser uses his eyes. He knows peripheral vision is vital, since fixing on the ball starves a player of context, and he reasons that broad awareness gathers a flood of data to calculate options. He frames the leap as moving from a two dimensional view to a three dimensional one, but senses Kaiser operates higher still, taking in the other players as if from a fourth dimension, a god's eye perspective he labels Metavision.
Isagi reads Kaiser's golden formula as Metavision multiplied by the Kaiser Impact. Weighing it against his own direct shot, he wonders about pairing that weapon with Metavision of his own.
Key Events
Isagi recalls summoning the wider sight consciously in the past, and realizes he has also triggered it without meaning to, in the moments he described as smelling a goal. He grasps that sustaining Metavision across a whole match, the way Kaiser does, might turn him into something like a god, and he treats it not merely as his own golden formula but as a means to overcome the entire world.
When Kaiser taunts him about stalking him or drowning in despair, Isagi thanks him instead, saying the pursuit has left him able to see only the hope of crushing his rival.

How does Isagi come up with the idea of Metavision?
Isagi reasons that Kaiser's genius lies in his eyes rather than his technique, since fixing on the ball alone starves a player of context.
