How it's used
Primarily used for books, novels, or written series, though it is increasingly common to hear it applied to films or television shows. When discussing movies specifically, people often prefer using the term 續集 instead. It carries a slightly more formal or literary tone compared to the more casual 續集.

Common mistake
Do not confuse this with 續集, which is the standard term for sequels in film and television; using 續篇 for a movie is understandable but sounds a bit pretentious or overly formal.
