Akira's Super Punch in VF4 Evolution!

I guess this is confirmed and it is listed in 1/60 site that Akira's standing punch has different recovery time when you use p+k instead of p.

The recoveries are as follow:

p+k blocked will give akira +2 (instead of +1)
p+k normal hit will give akira +5 (same)
p+k major counter will give akira +10 (instead of +8)
p+k minor counter will give akira +8 (instead of +5)

This will gives akira some advantages over other characters. Imagine p+k (blocked) -> f,f+p being less interruptable. And p+k (mC) -> Yoho being uninterruptable ~~ Ouch!

After doing some testing a couple days ago, it seems like the super P is not so super...P+K(blocked)--->SDE or DE always got interuppted by a 12f low punch in both stances...it seems like it can only interupt a 12f high punch in closed stance. P+K(blocked)--->Stpm seems to interupt all 12f high punches, but then you have to worry about the opponent couterattcking with a low punch. I guess the main advantage of it P+K is the +8f on minor counter.
