It is a type of Kumadori makeup to draw red lines upwards both from the corner of the eyes and the outer end of the eyebrows. Consequently, there are two lines drawn on the face, leading to be called Nihon (two lines) guma. This Kumadori is reserved for more mature Aragoto roles, as compared with Mukimiguma.
