So concerning Arima's fate, I came across an interesting meta discussing Ishida's previous work (Penisman) and parallels between the characters/stories.

Namely, there is a character in Penisman that resembles a gender-swapped Arima. She's essentially perfect, and was raised to fight particular beings (Others). Eventually, she learns she's the result of experiments involving making powerful Others as opposed to just "Special/Gifted" as she'd been told. This happens because of a near-death experience that triggers her dormant/repressed abilities.
