Arisia seems to have a lot of fans. In trying to understand her appeal, I've only seen her liked as a love interest and for her looks, not as an independent character. If those are the primary reasons for liking her, then her age needs to be retconned or addressed, as she's still being used as a love interest in the franchise--particularly for Hal and Sodam.

In human years, Arisia's 13-15 mentally and physically from her culture's perspective, and she's been written as a plucky child. As mentioned in the video, Hal himself calls their relationship inappropriate because she's a child but carries on with it anyway...

If this is no longer canon, what is her current origin?
