The Gold SUMO vs. Mahiroo Squad battle (ep #43) is a really great highlight moment for Harry Ord. The storyboard emphasizes all the camera movements, and Tomino advised animator Masami Goto to pay attention to the pauses in battle for dramatic effect.

I've talked about this before, but one of my favorite Tomino storyboarding techniques is when a group crowds around to talk and the camera pans & shifts between individual characters. It's very immersive and creates a sense of believability in setting the scene.
