I think Arima was intended to be very good looking to further convey how seemingly unrelatable and "otherwordly" he was. Not many people mentioned it directly, but I assumed it was part of the package when his "godliness" was mentioned. I wonder if appearance is taken into consideration when children are bred in the Garden tbh. They're all either beautiful or really cute.

It's a litle hard to tell with Kaneki sometimes because Ishida's art style changes a lot and Kaneki's appearance frequently changes both because of in universe factors and symbolic purposes. I'm under the impression though that he's intended to be cute in a "boyish" way. Other characters have called him cute and commented on his young appearance.
