Kubo was clearly writing a longer story and that were his plans and well his ill health and maybe pressure to end a series that was no longer making them as much money, the ending was clearly rushed from the slower pace his other fights took (Lille just never ended). But he also didn't explain things enough.

Seen people argue he's using the novels for that, but while yes he does the designs, he does designs all time, its clearly a very different story from how he would have told it. Every author has a different style.

I don't think there's any one thing to blame, He said himself that the schedule was too much for him so it could have been his health. Bleach was no longer making as much money as OP and other manga series. It had fallen in ratings and such in Japan so it also could have been that. But, whatever it was, it clearly wasn't the story he wanted to tell in the last few chapters.
