Aya in Fan Culture
- Due to Aya including photos of various characters in her news articles, some fan comics portray her as having a habit of taking embarrassing or risque photos as well. Thus she is sometimes a joke character that's shown as a pervert.
- In both Mountain of Faith story modes, Aya was seen to say "Ayayayaya" (あやややや) which has become her catchphrase.
- In Touhou Hisoutensoku, she has a palette that resembles Ranka Lee from Macross Frontier.
- Her Yukkuri form is one of the few non head ones, instead, she has a sassy face. Her catchphrase for this is "U mad?"
- Thus, she also referred to being a troll in Touhou fandom.
- Regarding Sakuya and Youmu's parallel to Sonic and Tails from Sonic the Hedgehog, Aya, Momiji and Hatate seem to parallel the Babylon Rogues in terms of being a team of a varying type of species(Aya, Momiji and Hatate are all a type of tengu, the Babylon Rogues are all a different type of bird), more importantly, Aya's nature can be greatly compared to Jet the Hawk from the aforementioned team. Both are proud of their "speed in the sky"(Jet has a rivalry with Sonic, and Sakuya's conflicts with Aya are often common in fandom), and are not well liked, as Aya is rather sassy, though both Jet and her can be considered "jerks."
- Along with the fan rumors that Aya likes to take take pictures of panties, she rarely takes pictures of Wriggle Nightbug and Fujiwara no Mokou because they both wear pants. Aya mostly takes pictures of the resdents with short skirts like Sakuya Izayoi because it could be easier to take photos of panties when they just have to move a little.
- In Aya's last name, Shameimaru, you can see the word "Shame" or "Sham". Many fans use this to target on Aya.
