Well, no. It the showrunners say "reboot + sequel = requel", then it can't be fully enjoyed without watching seasons 1 through 6.

After all, they would be slightly lost at Captain Hook being in a relationship with a random woman (who they will learn is the daughter of Snow White), that is the mother to Henry, whose mother is also the Evil Queen. Etc, etc.

They can easily get Henry, but not his family and their dynamics.
