I adored this and definitely plan to watch the movie! It's excellent, although it uses a fairly wide range of vocabulary. I looked up a word every 2 pages or so, since Shinkai Makoto sets each scene with a lot of description (some words/phrases are repeated throughout the book, some are not) and there are a lot of action-packed scenes as well. That said, it's definitely worth the read. FWIW, I read the physical bunko edition without any furigana.
