Anti-hero. The primary antagonist is Buffalo Bill. Lecter is evil, but he serves more as a mentor for Clarice, and is the only one who really respects her as a person. And while he isn't afraid of killing non-villains, he'll rarely go out of his way to kill and eat anyone just to satiate his appetite.

Lecter might have sent Buffalo Bill over the edge which might have caused James Gumb to become "Buffalo Bill". Might really just be a theory though.
