So, Villetta and Cornelia were against Lelouch too, so Lelouch was the evil one to kill, then everything forgived at the end.

And the spectators judges/votes did the rest.

For this I always tell japanese mentality is very....strange.
You're talking about the perspective. I'm going on an objective basis. Villetta and Cornelia were responsible to different degrees for that which Lelouch was up against, and in the former's case, many of Lelouch's problems. They did not atone or do anything to earn their forgiveness. They did not deserve their happy ending. They are straight up Karma Houdinis.

Not to mention Ohgi. He betrayed not only Lelouch, but also the UFN. He was also responsible for Lelouch's final turn towards self-destruction (not to mention the accompanying reign of terror). He does not deserve to be a leader.

It's also that Akito is part of the same continuity, and in between season 1 and R2 at that.
