'''New Order''', known as '''New Orders''' ({{Ruby|NO|ニューオーダーズ}} ''Nyū Ōdāzu'') in Japanese, is an anime-only [[series]] of [[LIGHT]] [[Xyz Monster]]s with various [[Type]]s (primarily [[Beast]] and [[Reptile]]) used by [[Eliphas]] in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL]]'' anime. Each monster in the series is a [[Ranked-Up]] version of the previous monster, which can be accomplished by the cards "[[Rank-Up-Magic Astral Force]]" and "[[Ascension Spiral]]". These two cards allow monsters to be Ranked-Up by two [[Rank]]s rather than one - a feature that this series is the first to use. The name "New Order" ties in with the various ideas of a [[wikipedia:New World Order (conspiracy theory)|New World Order]], which their user has established in the [[Astral World]] by diverting the entire world's resources towards "Ranking Up" the inhabitants. Additionally, the term "new order" could also imply a change in military tactics which parallels Eliphas' desire to delete [[Astral]]'s memories of Yuma to turn him back into a soldier; an act of giving him "new orders". The "Order" part of the name is also the opposite of "Chaos" which could be a reference to the fact that Eliphas is against chaos energy and believes it has corrupted Astral.
All card names in the series also contain the word "'''Etheric'''" (エーテリック ''Ēterikku''), which is also a legitimate name for the series. The word "etheric" can be connected to various psychic and spiritual beliefs, such as [[wikipedia:Etheric plane|Etheric plane]] and [[wikipedia:Etheric body|Etheric body]] as well as [[wikipedia:Aether (classical element)|Aether]], the classical element once believed to have composed most of outer space. Each monster's name contains their own Rank as well as the name of an [[wikipedia:Ancient Egyptian deities|ancient Egyptian deity]]. The number of glowing gems on each of the monsters' glyphs is equal to their own Rank.

==Trivia==
* The "New Order" monsters are the only archetype monsters in which the gateway to the Overlay Network is that of the "Number" monster without any special case.
** For example, a gate that resembles a "Number" Xyz Summon appears on "[[Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon]]", not on other "Photon" & "Galaxy-Eyes" non-"Number" Xyz Monsters.
