A spankin good outfit, I must say.

She looks like one of those corner newsboys from old movies always shouting, "Extrie! Extrie! Read all about it!"

'course that may be the point.

I want to quote Newsies, somehow, but at the same time im afraid it would go over everyone's head

I would've gotten it, but only if it was from Seize the Day. That's the only song I know/remember.

But yeah, the average Danbooru user probably isn't exactly well-versed in musical theater.

which is quite a shame. however, now I want to see more Touhou charcaters in turn-of-the-century American and European outfits or situations.

woah, Christian Bale was one of the newsboys in that movie, I didn't realize he was that young.

HiH: This post predates Aya's outfit in FS by a wide margin.

Fun Fact: if you search for images of Aya as Newsboy, you can find images prior to FS. Originally the tag used for the FS Aya was used for a fanmade design, usually looked quite similar to the regular Aya but had a flat cap and a bag. some examples: post #2719483 post #2229406 post #1911335 post #2112910
when FS came out, the tag used for the fanmade design became the official FS design and over time the fanmade design fell into oblivion.
Honestly, I'm glad the official design has been added, although I would have liked the fanmade design to keep getting fanarts.
