Spoiler for VC Ending:

The original VC ended with Welkin and Alicia as a married couple with Isara looking like a 3 or 4 year old little girl. The problem is, VC takes place 2 years after EWII where a civil war takes place. The ending of VC1 felt like aftermath of EWII and not the Civil War. When the creators planned this ending, I didn't think they were planning a sequel at that time. The VC anime kind of retcons that instead of taking place presumably 4 years later. Also, Max's GN Lanc- I mean artificial Valkyrur Lance and GN Shie- I mean Valkyrur Shield looks more compact and it didn't depend on multiple generators on the Mamorta. This will probably serve as a prototype to the new soldiers with some kind of Power Armor that the GRA possess

I don't see how it negates the VC1 story at all. Honestly, EWII could continue on even after the events of VC1, and could be over by the time of the VC1 ending. It's just that the Imperial invasion of Gallia had come to a grinding halt.

It would've been very possible for there to be a peace accord with the Empire -> two year gap -> civil war -> end of VC2 -> ???/VC 3 (against the Federation perhaps?) -> shown VC1 ending.

As for the whole generators thingy: the anime team are lazy. What, you thought there was a deeper meaning to that lacklustre final fight? Pfft.
