English term or phrase: doll
Nu va ganditi la papusa. E mult mai complicat.

Va dau explicatia, si va rog pe voi sa ma ajutati cu un termen adecvat, daca se poate, pentru un serial anime.

"a doll is its creator's power given physical form"

The main difference between a doll and a zanpakutō is how they operate. Unlike a zanpakutō, whose personality is generally dormant except when the shinigami wishes to speak to them, a doll's personality is always dominant. Dolls are self-sufficient when released, though they can easily be resealed. The Bount's ability to control their doll is largely based on their individual power and relationship with the doll. Moreover, if either the doll or its Bount partner sustains severe damage in a battle, the Bount may lose control over his doll, depending on the amount of damage dealt. If a doll is injured, it will simply return itself to its sealed state. However, should its master be injured, the doll may go berserk and kill its master, as Ugaki and Mabashi's dolls did. A doll may also kill a Bount who is not powerful enough to contain it, as was the case with Cain.

Ar aduce pe undeva cu simbiontii de prin Star Trek, dar nu cred ca se potriveste aici.

păpușă


Explanation:
Totuși nu înțeleg de ce nu poți să-i spui păpușă, se va înțelege din anime că nu-i o păpușă obișnuită.

”SHINIGAMI-suflete cu putere spirituala interioara, recrutati din rezidentii si nobilimea din Soul Society; ca si celelalte spirite, nu pot fi detectati de oamenii obisnuiti; folosesc ZANPAKUTO...
BOUNTS-exclusiv in anime; clan de oameni cu putere spirituala foarte mare; sunt creati de oamenii de stiinta Shinigami in incercarea de a produce viata eterna; initial bounts se hraneau cu sufletele celor morti, insa un ultim grup de bounts se hranesc cu sufletele celor vii pentru a obtine mai multa putere; fiecare bount foloseste o papusa (doll) in lupta, unica dupa puterea fiecarui bount; daca papusa este distrusa, si posesorul bount este distrus odata cu ea ...”
http://www.animeuri-cool.myforum.ro/-vp193.html

Sau ”păpușa Bount”?
”Bount, being created as variations on a Shinigami soul, have similar powers to Shinigami. The foremost of these powers is the Bount doll, a familiar equivalent to the Shinigami's Zanpakutō. Like a Zanpakutō, a doll is its creator's power given physical form. Also like a Zanpakutō, a doll's personality is much like its creator's, though the dolls seem to have more personality variation than the Zanpakutō spirits seen thus far.”

Înțeleg acum. Dar mă uitam că și copiii sunt f. dezghețați din ce citesc eu pe forum-uri, poate ar trebui să-i întrebi chiar pe ei :)

Văd că si francezii au aceleași probleme:

Les marionnettes de Bounts [modifier]
Les marionnettes (ou poupées/pantin, selon les traductions) des Bounts sont égales aux armes des Shinigami en ce qui concerne le fait d'avoir une personnalité propre. Chacune d'elles sont contrôlées par un Bount et quand leurs propriétaires faiblissent, elles se retournent contre ce dernier.

Asker: Multumesc mult, Adde. Stii de ce ezit sa-i spun papusa? Pentru ca aceasta doll ia forme diverse. In episodul pe care il traduc eu, e un sarpe. In alte parti e un ceas. Iar publicul tinta e format din pusti de la 10 ani in sus. Care ar fi mai mult decat bulversati. Iar papusa Bount nu pot sa ii spun, pentru ca noi avem glosare cu termeni, iar in glosar, Bount e vampirul sufletelor...

Asker: Oricum, vad ca si ei sunt destul de aproape cu traducerea lor de "papusa". Marioneta... asta chiar nu imi suna bine deloc. O marioneta e ceva ce manevrezi cum vrea muschiul tau, pe cand doll-ul are personalitate proprie si uneori, stapanul nu poate controla doll-ul.

You probably know Numbuh Two, as he is one the five mainstays in Codename: Kids Next Door; Laura on the other hand only appeared in a few episodes in Season I. Whenever she doesn't get her way, she transforms into a Hulk-like beast called the Big Badolescent. Or course, her alterego is represented by the doll in her arms; Laura is a never-ending wellspring of ideas for me.

Doppelgänger/ Papusa vie/ Samca


Explanation:
In opinia mea 2 lucruri merg

1.The "evil twin"
2. papusa folosita in magia neagra care se intoarce contra magicianului - aceea se cheama "poppet" in engleza, vrajitoarele romance nu au folosit insa acest obiect prea mult ca sa aiba un nume special ii zice Papusa ( vie sau magica) sau Samca - ultima denumire cam obscura insa :)

o chestie aici

spirit


Explanation:
ce zici de asta? adica spiritul provine de la creator dar in momentul in care capata independenta face ce vrea, cand spiritul paraseste corpul, poate lua alte forme, poate avea propria personalitate

poate ai putea sa ii spui duh, daca spirit mai ai in traducere, duh ar fi o alternativa

Asker: Multumesc mult, Valentina. Ar merge foarte bine, daca nu as avea deja in traducere alte cuvinte care se traduc prin spirit. Adica soul, sprit, si asa mai departe. Si nu le-am tradus eu, ci cei care au alcatuit glosarul de unde TREBUIE sa luam termenii. Numai pe doll nu l/au introdus. Si am interbat, dar ei tot papusa ar spune... si daca gasesc un echivalent mai bun, sa/l folosesc.

Asker: Multumesc, Reea. Asa mi s-a spus si mie, sa nu ma pun cu mintea odihnita a creatorilor de manga.

Asker: Da, cred ca manifestare se apropie cumva de explicatia lor.

Asker: Multumesc mult de tot, Reea. S-ar parea ca inspiratia ta de aseara a dat roade. M-am consultat cu superviserul meu, si am ajuns amandoua la concluzia ca avatar ar fi traducerea cea mai potrivita.
