Asuna and Kirito come through this city when they arrive on the 24th Floor of New Aincrad for Asuna to duel the mysterious «Absolute Sword». As they arrive before 3 PM, they spend some time on the south coast of an isle to the north of Panareze, reminiscing about their past while gazing at Panareze.

Later, Asuna briefly comes through this city when she teleports from the 22nd on her way to find Yuuki at the unnamed isle to the north of Panareze.

After Yuuki's condition worsens, Asuna again briefly goes through Panareze while teleporting from the 22nd Floor to the 24th to reach Yuuki at the unnamed island. Later, over 1,000 players come from Panareze to say their farewells to Yuuki before she goes on her new journey.
