Inuyasha killed him and his brother and Shippo joined them in their search for the jewel shards.

Sota may be annoying sometimes, but he loves his older sister, Kagome. He helped Kagome keep the jewel shards away from the Noh Mask and get her homework while she was in feudal Japan. In one episode, Sota wanted Kagome's help telling a girl that he loved her.

It took a lot, but he finally told her and it turned out that she liked him too. Later in the series Rebecca Shoichet takes over as the voice of Sota.
