I cannot believe "what is her tragedy?" is something that even needs to be asked.

We're talking about a girl whose birth was considered a mistake and who could've been killed at birth had her grandmother not been merciful, who permanently lost her name and birthright to her identical twin sister, who struggled with mental and emotional instability all her life, who was sent away from her family to live in a boarding school that she hated for most of her life, who fell in love with a boy who was disapproved of by her family purely because of the family he came from, who had to "distnguish herself" in a most horrific way as penance for the crime of fratenizing with that boy (a moment where even her twin sister seemed to betray her and force her to go through with it), who then lost the boy she loved under circumstance she wasn't clear on, who then had to bury those feelings until she had to watch her sister display similar feelings for a boy she liked, who then started to suspect that her own family, along with other people she trusted, directed the "curse" that took her love from her, and who then spiraled so far down into rage, hatred, vengeance, and madness that she lost sight of what she was initially looking for and became this cruel, wretched, bloodthirsty, psychopathic mass murderer, or "demon" as she called it, who killed all the people she loved, with never succeeded in making her feel less empty, and could only find peace and penance through her own death. She never found the truth she was looking for, and she fell victim to a virus that brought out all her inner demons until they gradually destroyed her. Her final thoughts in the visual novels and the manga are "I'm sorry I was born." How is any of this NOT tragic?
