He's not really a 'bad guy', just morally grey. His intentions are good but his methods aren't. It's all about perspective!
Shigure-san is bad because he's willing to hurt others to achieve his goal of breaking the curse. He doesn't mind playing dirty.
I've watched both versions and trust me, Shigure's character really walks the fine line between hero and villain. He manipulates situations, but it's all for a larger purpose!
Shigure-san's manipulative tendencies and secretive nature make him appear like the bad guy, but he genuinely cares for Tohru and the other Sohmas. He's just got a twisted way of showing it.
