The name 'Twin Bow Herritt' always made me think of folklore and mythology. In a lot of stories, twin weapons symbolize balance or duality—like yin and yang. For Gowther, it's spot-on because he's constantly torn between logic and emotion. The 'Herritt' part sounds almost archaic, like something from an old legend, which fits 'Nanatsu no Taizai''s medieval fantasy vibe. Maybe it's a name passed down from his creator, or maybe it's a word in the demon language. Either way, it adds this layer of mystery to his character that makes him stand out even more.
I've spent way too much time theorizing about this! 'Twin Bow Herritt' isn't just a cool-sounding name—it's loaded with symbolism. The twin bows represent Gowther's dual role: as a weapon of war and as a protector. 'Herritt' might be derived from 'harriet,' which in some contexts means 'ruler of the home,' which is ironic because Gowther's 'home' was originally a lab where he was created. It's like the name is a constant reminder of where he came from versus where he's trying to go.
Also, the way the bows function in battle—syncing with his emotions—suggests the name is almost alive, changing meaning as he grows. Early on, it's a tool of destruction, but later, it becomes an extension of his will to protect. The name evolves with him, which is such a clever detail from Nakaba Suzuki.
Gowther's sacred treasure name feels like a puzzle piece from his backstory. 'Herritt' doesn't sound like a typical weapon name, which makes me think it's personal—maybe something his creator whispered to him long ago. The twin bows could symbolize the two lives he's lived: one as a doll, one as a Sin. It's those little touches that make 'Nanatsu no Taizai' so rewarding for detail hunters.
Gowther's 'Twin Bow Herritt' is such a fascinating name, and it perfectly encapsulates his character's duality. The 'Twin Bow' part obviously references the weapon's form—two bows merged into one, mirroring Gowther's own divided nature as both a former Commandment and a member of the Seven Deadly Sins. But 'Herritt' is where it gets really interesting. It feels like a nod to his creator, the demon Gowther, who imbued the doll with fragments of his own soul. The name might even be a twisted homage or a buried memory from his past life.
What I love about this detail is how it ties into the series' themes of identity and redemption. The weapon isn't just a tool; it's a reflection of Gowther's struggle to reconcile his artificial origins with his very real emotions. Every time he draws those bows, it's like he's confronting the two halves of himself—the cold, logical doll and the being capable of love and sacrifice. The name 'Herritt' could also be a play on words, hinting at 'heritage' or 'heart,' which feels poetic given his arc.

For the 100th time, my Alpha mate, Ryker, used his command on me, threatening to reject our bond if I didn't sacrifice myself for my twin sister, Ivy.
I didn't cry or protest. I simply signed the mate bond rejection papers.
I surrendered the Alpha I had loved for ten years to my sister.
A few days later, Ivy caused a scene at the Pack Alliance Banquet, humiliating the Silvermoon Alpha's daughter.
Once again, I stepped forward to take her place, enduring the pain of a disfiguring silver brand.
Later, when they demanded I test the safety of the Wolf Spirit Regeneration Ritual with my own body for my sister, I accepted with a smile.
My Beta parents, their eyes red-rimmed, told me I was finally being the older sister I was supposed to be.
Even Ryker, who had always been so distant toward me, stood before the cellar. He gently stroked my cheek for the first time in ages and said softly,
"Harper, don't be afraid. As soon as the trial is over, I'll take you to see the auroras at Moon Goddess Lake."
But he didn't know that, regardless of the trial's outcome, he would never see me again.
My wolf spirit was already fading. Nothing could save me.
This time, when I closed my eyes, it would be forever.

My sister and I were reborn on the very day we were to be sent to the Demons as sacrificial vessels.
That day, our husbands, the God of Water and the God of Fire, came to rescue us.
However, this time, without any discussion, we made the same choice.
We refused their rescue and willingly offered ourselves to the Demons.
In our previous life, after they saved us, the Demons captured the God of Water's young apprentice as a replacement.
In the end, she was flayed and had her bones torn out, dying a brutal and tragic death.
Because of that, the God of Water and the God of Fire came to hate my sister and me deeply.
They spread rumors that we were the Twin Blossoms of Ruin, destined to destroy the world, and forced us to the point where our souls were completely annihilated.
When I opened my eyes again, my sister and I had returned to the moment when the Demons first captured us.
We exchanged a glance and then announced in front of everyone, "We are willing to become the sacrificial vessels of the Dark Lord and the Demon King. Take us with you."
The God of Water and the God of Fire left with their young apprentice, who was completely unharmed. They were relieved that they had finally protected the one they truly cared about.
Only later did they realize their mistake, but by then, they were consumed with regret.

Gowther's sacred treasure is such a fascinating topic! His weapon, 'Herritt', is actually a bow that reflects his enigmatic personality perfectly. From what I recall in 'The Seven Deadly Sins', it wasn't explicitly handed to him like some other treasures—it feels more like an extension of himself. The way it amplifies his mind-reading and illusion abilities just screams 'Gowther', you know? It’s almost as if the weapon chose him, given how seamlessly it fits into his backstory as a former Commandment.
What’s wild is how 'Herritt' ties into the bigger lore. Unlike other sacred treasures that were forged by the dwarves, Gowther’s feels... different. Maybe because he’s not entirely human? The bow’s design with its eye motif even mirrors his own hollow, doll-like origins. Every time he uses it in the series, there’s this eerie elegance—like watching a puppetmaster at work. Makes me wonder if Nakamoto-sensei intentionally left its origins vague to keep that mystery alive.
