Royalguard + Just Releases make Dante pretty much invincible. Admittedly he doesn’t have that ability in DMC2, but Capcom keep putting so many events before DMC2 it almost seems like they want to phase it out of his timeline completely.
You could beat most enemies in DMC2 simply by shooting them to death. Bleh.

That, and Street Fighter characters are usually highly overlooked at times. You can probably count on one hand the number of characters in Street Fighter that match/surpass Akuma.
I forgot all about this thread.
Anyway, Gouki's durability is at the least in the mountain range. When fighting Gouken, they both leveled mountains while fighting with barrages of Hadoukens. Also, we has to consider powerscaling. Shin Bison, who is around Shin Gouki's power level (Prolly, may be lower, dunno), was able to survive a massive explosion that destroyed his base, mushroom cloud and all, which was done with nukez courtesy of Charlie. Also, he could stand without any discomfort in a deep sea trench. Which means his body is immensely durable all over, even t3h eyeballs. Oh, and he fought Gouken inside a volcano. Yey. Also, with a single leap while destroying the sunken ship with a kick, in that few seconds he went from the sea trench to above the surface. While doing a kick. Yey.
Havant seen the mountain one. Trench doesn't really help, that's less then 8 tons per square inch of pressure. Good but not against super-strength. Also everyone's saying its a trench, how do we know as all we do know is that its in the deep ocean? Covered the kick earlier... I think. Finally the volcano doesnt mean he can survive the heat from Ifrit.
I still say Dante wins with the right equipment but....

The Sub operator was pretty damn suprised that a human being was down by where the sub was. It had to be inceredibly deep if a sub was needed to reach its depths.

Unless Neme's right about the guide thing.

Id think anyone would be surprised to see a guy standing on a wreckage even if it was only in the sunlit zone[200m] From the vid all we know is that its anywhere near the twilight zone.[1000m]
Oh and a sub is usually used in those salvage operations, doesnt speak for the depth.Unless Neme's right about the guide thing.
The sub's name is Deep Sea 3000. It was deeper than where any living man can go with no aid.
Originally posted by BloodRainYou can try to downplay it all you want but the man was clearly standin' on a ship that was, in turn, sittin' on the sea floor. Capcom labels the act as inhumanly powerful.

-edit-
It should also be noted that all of this occurs while holdin' back massive amounts of his power.

Since when were you classed as a normal man, Neme?
If it was a trench, there would be little to no sunlight reaching Gouki. But thats moot anyways.
Here, check this, his is the data on the Earth's deepest trench, Mariana. At the very bottom of the Mariana, it's over 1,000 atmostpheric pressures down there. Thats 1,000 times the pressure we get up here... Err, Damn...
If, (and this is a big if) Gouki could survive an accent as fast as he could from the ascent of the Tenshou Kaireki Jin... Then he is more than durable enough to survive explosive decompression, which means his internal organs are hella durable...

Not downplaying anything here. Only questioning if its know, theorised or guessed how deep it is. (Sea floors not a trench)
'I' never said it was a trench. I don't know what the hell it was. Alls I'm sayin' is that it's damn deep and worthy of mention in this thread.

Duly noted but ^ but the strength isn't the feat being looked at.
I never said anything about strength, I said "power", as in the ability to do things in general. Power and strength aint the same thing.
If we are talking about trench tepths, then this feat would also mean that gouki could conceivably travel at least 11.3 kmph in seconds without the Ashura Senkuu warp... Thats is quite a damn distance at speed.
Now this may sound like a stupid question, but... Would a sunken ship have stayed intact at those depths?

It's actually happened in real life: people's bodies explode cuz they leave the Decompression Chambers too early. Akuma was deep in the sea and sky rocketed back to normal pressure in moments. A normal man would have been torn to bits.
