The name of the show is not an indicator of amata being the main character, just the mecha of the serie. Like in the serie Gundam Wing Heero Yuy pilots the mech of the title, but he is not the only main character. All of the other main heroes have pretty much the same screen time and importance as Heero.
Another example is Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Kamina was originally the one leading the gurren lagann ,because he came with the idea of fusing the two mechs into one. But he end up not being the main character of the serie.
You might think it's a horrible idea, but for what reasons? This Amata x Mikono x Kagura love triangle is especially interesting for people who have seen the previous serie. Because now there are 2 potential fated lovers for the female heroine, one based on the previous series of the incarnations of the 2 lovers story and the other one being the traditional boy meets girl scenario.

Neh if the villain becomes a good guy they barely if ever become the main character unless they were the main character to begin with. Or at least don't become the main character within that specific story. Kamina wasn't the main character of Gurren Lagann and never was, the introduction of the series made it abundantly clear who was the main character of the series and even how the series would end up. Important characters are important characters but their not main characters and barely if ever become them. Even in case where the hero becomes darkside or starts evil their almost always still, the main character, they simply don't end up winning.
There are very rare exceptions e.g Ron from Kim as is the case for most story conventions, but for the vast, vast majority of the time what I say holds true. Sure the villain could change to the main character in this story, much like any event in any story ever but it's, simply very, very highly unlikely and more in the realms of fan fiction, than the logical progression of the story.
