is bleach: thousand-year blood war (bleach: sennen kessen-hen) episode 22 filler?

With Sternritter "A" Uryū Ishida ascending into the pillar of light piercing the Shakonmaku, Ichigo Kurosaki screams at him for an explanation of his betrayal, but Uryū remains silent as the beam transports him, Yhwach, and "B" Jugram Haschwalth out of the Seireitei, producing a powerful shockwave that blows Ichigo back and forces Orihime Inoue to catch him and Yasutora Sado with Santen Kesshun while Ichigo calls out to Uryū. Nearby, Sternritter "G" Liltotto Lamperd and "P" Meninas McAllon notice the incoming shockwave and move back with Hirenkyaku.
