since one of them is really important to two of the characters

You mean that Takuto becomes human and gets arrested for statutory rape? And, then he is forced to pay child support when he gets out of prison?

What a change from the first season. Comedy/slapstick followed by serious drama. Anyway, Jonathan is not what he appears. It is not explained in the anime, but is in the manga. Does it matter if I reveal it here, a review of the anime, not the manga?

SPOILER ALERT From the manga, here is how Izumi became a shinigami. Read below if you are interested. In his human life, he was a boy named Lio Izumi (泉利緒 Izumi Rio) whose mother was abusive; it is implied that the young Izumi looked much like his late father, thus invoking his mother's rage.
