Imperial Palace (Honmaru Entrance)
In *Sword Art Online II*, the first episode opens with Kirito jogging in the early morning. He passes an ancient stone wall and a moat surrounding a castle gate, with modern skyscrapers and lush trees contrasting in the background. The camera follows him across a stone bridge; the water beneath is calm, and the city skyline is visible in the distance.
