Talk:Shao Kahn vs. Akuma/@comment-28868284-20161009023537/@comment-28772223-20180314194121

Well, going by Capcom Japan, the Raging Demon is 1000 fatal blows in an instant, it doesn't have anything to do with sins or destroying a soul. Gen and Gouken survived it because they entered the state of Mu, which is a Ki stance allowing them to attack and defend without a thought of offense and defense. Bison survived it because he has an artificial body. Akuma destroyed one of Bison's vessels, but Bison's soul remained.

It can be surprising to hear because unfortunately, all the Pre-SFV games are heavily mistranslated.
