Episode 5 is adapted from the book:

Japanese Fairy World : Stories From The Wonder-Lore Of Japan
By William Elliot Griffis
1920

This weeks story is a dreamy Japanese fairy tale.  The tale is set in a place of contrast; the base of the tallest mountain in Japan, Mt. Fuji and where the waters of the Pacific Ocean meet the forest.

A moon maiden is intrigued by the natural beauty of the bay and steals away for a visit, where she removes her winged robe and hangs it on a branch near the edge of the sea.

A fisherman finds the magical winged cloak and longs to hold it and the moon maiden herself.
