Yes, I also especially had Akira in mind when thinking about this. She basically 'forgave' him despite knowing so many sketchy things about Kaneki. So it might be very possible that Arima did also change his view about him just being a tool. Just thinking about a Quinque, a dead Kagune, as an object is easy but Kaneki is still a living being.

Also Arima did not 'kill' Kaneki everytime they met. They seemed to have rather mundane encounters, too. Back at the beginning Sasaki was returning a book so I suppose they also talked about books lol. This doesn't change the fact that Arima threated him like trash and did not think anything about it, of course. But as they say there are always two sides of the same coin.
