is bleach episode 171 filler?

On the way home from school, Ichigo shows Rurichiyo the wonders of a vending machine. Later on, Rukia Kuchiki takes her to an arcade for some fun.

In the process, Ichigo nearly lets it slip that he’s doing a favor for Kenryū and Enryū, but he corrects himself in time. Afterwards, the group arrives at Ichigo’s house, and Yuzu Kurosaki invites Rurichiyo inside for dinner.

Rurichiyo enjoys the meal until she notices that there are carrots in it. She refuses to eat them, because she dislikes carrots.

However, Ichigo insists that Rurichiyo eats the carrots anyway since the farmers worked really hard to grow them. However, Kenryū opposes forcing her, and asks Ichigo to stay out of it.
