If Kaneki's retaining an insectoid like kakuja but ditching the centipede motif, I wonder if it'll be anything distinguishable. I think it was in the English translation that Kaneki called his mother a "maggot", but I recall him calling her an "insect" in the translations prior (accurate?). In The Metamorphasis it was never specified what insect Gregor became or resembled (though he's commonly interpreted as being roach-like I think).

I wonder if it'll be something like that, he'll be a mess of insectoid parts, but might not resemble something specific. Then again, that might be too simple. Not unless we see a couple of different forms since the kakuja is based on imagination.
