In this instance, parrying chub-li's super is an exercise in replaying accurately a complete pattern (akin to a rhythm game) Although difficult it has nothing to do with reaction.
The reaction to the super's startup is the potentially interesting part, however it is quite clear that it's something that Daigo was quite prepared to react to given the situation. And the initial parry requires forward movement of the stick, which is a fast twitch movement.
Justin was also counting on Daigo being able to react; he was convinced almost certainly that Daigo would block and see his life depleted by the super's damage on block. What Justin was not prepared to was Daigo's parry.
