Wilderness Era
. That story was adapted for episode 18 and will be included with BD/LE DVD volume 9. Since then, Yonezawa wrote another set of stories which was published as volume 5 since it was one long story and the other short story couldn't be included with it. He also wrote another short story which details why Mayaka acts how she does towards Houtarou which was serialized in
Wilderness Era
this year. Thus we have two short stories which were serialized, but not published in novel form and one novel which was serialized prior to publication.

I'm curious--if you have the time, could you elaborate a little bit more on how the Valentine's Day story is different in the novel? Thanks for all the info you've given before!
