is bleach episode 286 filler?

After Rukia Kuchiki crashes to the ground, Yammy Llargo decides to go and kill the person who defeated Ulquiorra Cifer. However, a voice is heard from Rukia's direction and Yammy looks to see who it is.

Ichigo is shown standing in front of Rukia, and he tells Yammy that he's gotten much bigger since the last time he saw him. Yammy begins to angrily charge a Cero, but Ichigo fires off a Getsuga Tenshō at Yammy's face, stopping him from completing his attack.

Rukia asks Ichigo why he isn't saving Orihime Inoue, but Ichigo informs her that he already did and that Orihime is simply at the top of the dome healing Uryū Ishida, since it's much safer up there.
