In terms of the actual art you see in his comics, he peaked out around the Aogiri arc, got mediocre towards the end of Tokyo Ghoul, and when Tokyo Ghoul :re starts his art just slowly declines into a plateau. Really he's sticking in his comfort zone.

You can see this in all the volume covers, where early on there are full body drawings and some different angles it was drawn from. But then later you see that the covers become more of the same. And it :re it's always some kind of bust shot of a character. Usually a head, and one hand. Or it's just a head. No difficult things like perspective, form or construction here! Just floaty wispy whatever you see, like in OP. The comic of course, follows.

It becomes more polished, but it stiffens up a lot and looses some of its uniqueness to it. If you've read Bleach, it's kind of the same shit. But at least Kubo (bleh) had his own uniquely awful style. Ishida's just looks like your average anime. Doesn't help that most of the impressive stuff later on is work that could easily have been delegated to assistants, like background art or screentone effects. Hell even the really nice looking background art could easily just have been filtered photos of Tokyo.
