I think that real villain, or better said, the MAIN REAL VILLAIN, was Amshel.

He was the one who along Joel turned Diva into who she was. He was the one who was interested in fill the world with Chiropterans, and who created all this experiments. Diva, on the other hand, was mostly a pawn: the only actions she did by herself were killing Joel and raping and murdering Riku. The last one is totally unexcusable, of course, however, you still can see that Diva was the product of bad nurture, and that deep inside she only wanted a family. She didn't even care about Amshel's experiments, she may be happy with his plan because that would mean that nobody would chase her or hunt anymore and thus she would had a peaceful life with her babies, but she wasn't actually very interested in them even if she participated in the plan (her singing). At the end, Diva resulted to be a tragic villain, whose life and personality would had been very different if she was raised like Saya or would had been given support from someone who wanted to genuinely help her instead of using her as a guinea pig to satisfy his own ambitions.
