Sky Devil Lord - Norreras
Dark/Fiend/8/2400/1500
This card cannot be Normal Summoned. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by removing a Light/Fairy attribute-type monster and 3 Dark/Fiend attribute-type monsters from your graveyard. Pay 1000 lifepoints, send all cards in both players' hand and field to the Graveyard. Afterward, you draw a card.
Super/Ultimate Rare

The translated text says "send".

If I activated its effect and had Dark World monsters in hand, would their effects go off?

As it stands, no: Send to the Graveyard is not the same as Discard.

We should wait for the official translation before we can get a real ruling (maybe the TCG version will say Discard instead of Send).

It has the same basic text as Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End. Why would the text be changed to anything else? That would make this card a GOD for Dark World Monsters, and it would most likely have been Banned or Limited immediately.

Yeah, it's going to be "Send". It's purpose is to be a scaled down CED-Envoy, although really, the whole "drawing a card" part afterwards can make it more broken (Dimension Fusion anyone? Yeah I thought so). There's a good chance it will get restricted on it's own despite it's handicaps. But it won't be "discard" at all. Sorry for anyone holding out hope.

So in that sense, "Elemental Hero Aqua Neos" wouldn't trigger their effect, would it?

No. The discard you make is a cost (and so wouldn't trigger one of your Dark World monsters), and the opponent's card is destroyed, not discarded (and so it wouldn't trigger an opponent's Dark World monster).
