Sumi Manga Translator
Manga reader and translator
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Seamless translation is here — original text erased from the art, your language typeset in its place. First 30 pages free. No subscription.
Sumi is a manga reader that translates the chapters you already own — seamlessly.
Most translators paste white boxes over the art. Sumi erases the original text from the page and re-typesets your language right where it was, vertical Japanese included. The page still looks like the artist drew it.
