Seme is a Kyogen-specific hataraki-goto in which an oni in the hell tortures severely the dead people and it is also used as a lesson for act at festival scene in "Uri nusubito" (The Melon Thief) in addition to Oni-Kyogen such as "Asahina" (A Worthy Man).
責メは地獄の鬼が亡者を責めたてる狂言独自の働事で、『朝比奈』のような鬼狂言のほかに、『瓜盗人』などで祭の出し物の稽古として用いられる。
