I have a theory that the people who have contact with their eyes are led to be aware of the situation. Kuroha knows this for certain, but as things repeat, and as Konaha "becomes" Konaha his memory is wiped each repeat, however becoming Kuroha as he remembers. Kano on the other hand may have been aware the whole time.

Then there's Hibiya's case, where he obtained his eye ability during the repeat, which allowed him to witness the haze for himself.
