About Yhwach, I don't think anyone's trying to say he's the good guy, not even the novel. He was still an unrepentant, sadistic mass murderer who's primary motivation was merely his own fear of death. That being said, it's not like everything is super black & white either; and it's saying a lot that Yhwach genuinly considered killing the SK & Ichigo a "mercy". Despite Yhwach having such strong Thanatophobia himself and genuinly not caring about others. Plus, the manga did already hint that Ichibe is faaaaar more sinister than he lets on.
