Apparently, this one came out first but they're not related so it doesn't really matter which one you watch. This one was way better than Blood and Iron.Hellboy (Ron Perlman) and Professor Kate Corrigan (Peri Gilpin) are sent to Japan after a mild-mannered antiquities dealer is possessed by the demon spirits of Thunder and Lightning. Hellboy picks up a magical sword that had originally trapped the demons and is instantly transported back in time. There he learns that the samurai who faced the demons was trying to get back to the woman he loved but never made it. Meanwhile, Liz (Selma Blair) and Abe (Doug Jones) have their hands full trying to keep a dragon awakened by the demons from wreaking havoc.
I thought this was extremely well done, probably because I haven't heard this story a million times. This made me wish Starz actually ran it as a Saturday morning series. The copy I was watching wasn't the best quality but I still found this to be highly entertaining.
