user1908: Ginyoku no Fam ("Fam, the Silver Wing") is the sequel to Last Exile. Is the former (fam-the-silver-wing) sufficiently different from the latter (last-exile) as to warrant a separate tag? My sense is no, based on plot synopses, but I haven't watched either of these shows. 

user63: I think they should be separate since that series is it's own original story (though there are cameos from the preceding series) rather than a continuation of it's predecessor. 
This is not unlike the relationship between "A Certain Magical Index" and "A Certain Scientific Railgun" series.
