Sequential generalized fractional Riemann-Liouville derivatives are introduced as composites of distributional derivatives on the right half axis and partially defined operators, called Dirac-function removers, that remove the component of singleton support at the origin of distributions that are of order zero on a neighborhood of the origin. The concept of Dirac-function removers allows to formulate generalized initial value problems with less restrictions on the orders and types than previous approaches to sequential fractional derivatives. The well-posedness of these initial value problems and the structure of their solutions are studied.
