The sentence is from
[here](https://bilingualmanga.com/manga/kuro/chapter-1/5-2). The previous
sentence is:

「そんなに目が見えないくらい。」

The translation given is "Where you always like this?".

I can't find 「真っ無」 in any dictionary, and a Google search for it only returns
4 results, none of which were helpful.

I assume this is some sort of colloquial grammar?

question
meaning words colloquial-language sentence
What is the meaning of 「真{ま｝っ無｛む｝」 in the sentence 「真っ無だったかな。」?
It's clear from the context that this is a typo for 真っ黒だったかな (with furigana
applied by some kind of automatic process).

The interpretation of the first line would then be:

> クロを[飼]{か}っていて [前]{まえ}とちょっと[違]{ちが}うなって[思]{おも}うことがあります

Since I started keeping Kuro, there's times that I think something's changed
from before...

> そんなに[目]{め}が[見]{み}えないくらい[真]{ま}っ[黒]{くろ}だったかな

I wonder, was Kuro always so black that you almost couldn't see him at all?

As I observed in my comment, even if the intended reading was _mammu_ , this
can only be written as まんむ by the rules of Japanese orthography, and not まっむ.
As such, I think it's more likely some automatic furigana process has failed
to understand what to do with まっむ, and the intended intepretation is
[真]{ま}っ[黒]{くろ} ("pitch black").
