The movie is set in old Japan. All I remember is that there is a woman who has 3 (maybe 4) daughters and they are traveling by wooden carriage and accompanied by a singing mouse wearing an obi (incidentally the mouse is crying). There is a samurai who battles a giant spider that comes down from the sky near a temple. The samurai slices the spider in half and wins the battle. At the end of the movie the old woman and one of her daughters are on a boat and she sees through mostly blind eyes that one of her daughters has turned into a swan. Another one of her daughters has turned into a mermaid. I remember watching this movie as a child in the eighties but I'm not sure when it was made. Does this sound familiar to anyone?
I saw your question last time, but I can't think of an Anime I've seen / heard of that matches it. But if you want to do your own "methodical" search through Anime Database.net, here's the link for all series ordered by the earliest air date:
