Well I can certainly see your argument some of your points (especially Marika), but there's a couple of things I disagree with.

How you feel is one thing, but he was definitely never the "true" villain nor was he ever meant to be. Gaim is a story about humans first and foremost, more specially about the temptation of ultimate power and how said power corrupts. This is present in almost everything Gen Urobuchi writes - Madoka, Psycho-Pass, Gargantia, Aldnoah.Zero...I could go on. Gaim even had the imagery to enforce it all the more.
Sagara/Helheim isn't inherently evil, it simply serves a purpose, its what humans choose to do with the power that causes disaster. Whether its Kaito, Ryouma, Yggdrasil, the Inves (who were also humans once), the result is the same.

I feel that Kaito becoming evil kind of wrecked his character.
His motivations were clear as day from the very first episode. His character never changed.
Quote:
Kouta is the main flaw for me he is so unbalanced
like he went out of his way to try and save Micchy but he doesn't go out of his way to try and save Kaito? They both became monsters but only one of them is able to be saved?
As I said above, Kaito made his intentions clear right from the very beginning. Yes Micchy went off the deep end, but he was also highly unstable and constantly being manipulated. No-one manipulated Kaito, he used people to his own ends and knew exactly what he wanted.
The guy discarded his humanity for the sake of his cause, that's about as symbolic of being at the point of no return as you can get.
