Space time bubbles are what allow their ships to even exist in plane-space. What is impressive is how this dictates their engagements. Sords become the strategic objectives of warfare and are dangerous choke points.
Tactical engagement is entirely based on use of space-time bubbles; merging bubbles to reinforce or concentrate fire versus mine-attack and surrounding bubbles to ensure that the target ships can't concentrate their best firepower at the engagers.
As for other space combat. You can't entirely rule out the original (UC) Gundam. I am not sure where Leijiverse titles stand or how LOGH depicts them, but even old stuff like Yamato was pretty interesting in how it depicted space combat (ship/weapon specialisation etc.)

lol well yes the bubbles do work well for the type of space battles and it is very inportant to the style of space warfare I just ment as in what could be worldly acomplished... but hay were talking about anime so nothig very worldly (^^)
as for gundam I always thought most of their space battles were lame because it was full of eather super lucky misses or badly timed hits. I mean I dont care how good a robot or ship you have, enough lasers and missiles fired your way and you cant dodge or dlock them all your just another casualty of war and a pial of slag.
