You can't take it from Kubo that he is a great artist so I hope he comes up with a new Manga. Although he has to learn to administrate space in his pages more efficiently and start planning way ahead on his plot to avoid all the improvisation he did with Bleach. Also, way less characters make it easier to develop a good plot. Just Gotei13 had like 30 "important" characters.
I actually feel like he suffered by over preparation. He wanted to go far with xCution, as far as I can tell, probably to set up an arc far in the future. Frankly, I wouldn't be surprised if he had to change the arc around because he was told to rap it up and start his final arc as soon as possible. You need a ton of patience to completely enjoy Bleach as a manga as Kubo likes to do a lot of full page spreads and play around with white space. The chapters end up being incredibly stilted otherwise.
