I'm looking to build a PC for under $100, specifically to play Minecraft at around 200 fps. Is there any way to make this happen, or am I being unrealistic?

Honestly, I don't think that's going to work out. A budget of $100 is super tight for gaming. You might want to check out sites like eBay or Facebook Marketplace for used systems. Even then, it’ll be tough.
Don't forget about the Raspberry Pi 5! It can hit over 200 fps in Minecraft if you're just looking at the sky. Definitely not a full PC, but could work for some casual gaming!
You could get lucky at local shops and find something low-end. An old office PC with a cheap GPU like a GTX 1050 Ti or 1650 might be your best shot, but it’s still a stretch at that price.

Interesting! I hadn't thought of that option. Thanks for the tip!
