Shin isn't really paying attention to the tree enough to be confused by it. On some level there's a part of his mind registering it as unusual; the tree, the sky, the ice, but it's on the backburner, tickertape catalogue right now.
Shin won't know which way Komaeda intends to catch him until he decides on one, but the point becomes a bit moot when his foot catches the grass at wrong speed and angle and he absolutely beefs it on the ground, skidding, panting, and then struggling to get back up to his feet and speed, frozen hands on the ground. This is your chance to close distance, Komaeda.]
