Jennifer leaving had nothing to do with the new direction. I refuse to call Season 7 a reboot when it isn't even close to a reboot. Exact same characters and Universe is being used. History of the main Characters remain the same. Minus a few main characters leaving but that doesn't make it a reboot by anymeans.

Also Henry has magic as he is the author and has the Heart of the Truest believer which is a powerful source of Magic. This was explained during Season 3 and 4. Either way though Emma didn't break Regina's curse due to her magic but the true loves kiss shared between her and Henry.
