Dude, the Pendulum arc wasn't filler, it was all manga material(I mean, did anyone seriously think that the studio could come up with that themselves?) so it only brought us closer.

Thing is, I'm pretty sure they're gonna put in fillers after the Ulqui VS Ichi fight again, but for now they're using some manga specials to put more distance before the fight, so we can watch it without interruption(cuz from here on out it's non-stop Ichi-Ulqui action).
