Finding niche manhua like this can be such a treasure hunt. I had my 'aha!' moment when a Discord group pointed me to Tapas—turns out they rotate free chapters of 'Mountain and Ocean' occasionally. The color version there makes the watercolor-style panels pop.
If you read Chinese, the original's on platforms like Kuaikan Manhua, but the UI's tough for non-native speakers. For English readers, keep an eye out for publisher announcements; sometimes smaller titles get picked up randomly. My bookshelf's already stuffed with print editions of similar works—this genre's explosion in popularity means more might get licensed soon!
Ugh, the struggle is real! Last week I spent hours digging through aggregator sites before finding decent 'Mountain and Ocean' chapters. Try searching novel updates forums—fans often compile legit sources there. The folklore motifs in this one remind me of 'Feng Shen Ji', which had similar licensing chaos before getting proper English releases. Hopefully this gets that treatment too; that scene where the mountain god battles the flood dragon deserves proper translation notes!
I usually bounce between platforms like Bilibili Comics or Webtoon since they sometimes license these gems. If you're okay with unofficial scans, sites like MangaDex might have fan translations, but quality varies wildly.
Pro tip: Check the artist's social media too! Some creators post previews or direct links to official releases. The art in this series is so detailed—those double-page spreads of mythical beasts deserve to be seen in high def. Honestly, supporting the official release whenever possible keeps the industry alive, but I get how tempting free options can be when you're hooked mid-cliffhanger.

My husband, Ethan Gibson, boarded a lifeboat with his true love, Aria York, leaving me—his pregnant wife—behind. Not only that, he scolded me for being jealous at the worst possible time.
"Aria can't swim. I have to take her first. What more do you want? I left the life jacket for you—isn't that enough?"
"I'm pregnant… I'm scared…" I tried to plead.
"Enough! Wendy, what's wrong with you? Why do you always have to be so dramatic?"
That night, I was still nowhere to be found. Furious, he sent me a message:
[Wendy! Where the hell are you? Do you have to take things this far?]
[I'm telling you; I'm not coming to look for you. If you come back now, I'll act like this never happened. But if you don't, then don't bother coming back—ever!]
However, Ethan… I couldn't come back anymore.

I couldn't bear to watch them die. With my giant shark husband, I dragged them down into the deep sea to safety.
But resentment festered. Seeing me live comfortably while my shark beastman hunted day after day, my parents grew furious that my sister's life paled in comparison to mine. In their jealousy, they laced the fish we ate with poison and killed me.
Now, given another chance at life, they've decided my sister should marry the giant shark beastman instead.
My biased parents believe she will finally enjoy the blessings they once denied her.
But what they don't know is this: after the cataclysm, fish become scarce. And a giant shark… does not survive on scraps. He needs flesh.

Man, 'Sunset and Moonrise' is such a gem! I stumbled upon it while browsing manga aggregator sites like MangaDex or MangaFox—those usually have fan translations up pretty fast. Though, honestly, I prefer supporting the official release when possible. Viz Media or Kodansha might have digital versions if it's licensed in your region.
If you're into physical copies, checking local bookstores or Amazon could work too. The art style in this one is so dreamy; it's worth owning a tangible copy just to admire the panels properly. Plus, the story's bittersweet vibe hits harder when you can flip through the pages slowly.
