I'm confused about the usage of the word "reboot" in regards to Infinite Stratos 2. Does IS2 start the plot completely over, or do I need to watch the first season to start from the beginning?

Yes. Season 1 explains how Ichika came to the academy and how he met everyone. As for the plot, I would say S2 starts it off.

You won't understand a thing in Season 2 without Season 1, since the staff didn't do a single thing as to even re-introduce the characters despite Season 1 being 1-2 years old. I'd suspect that anybody would have forgotten who the heck they even were if they didn't constantly watch the anime over and over again
There comes a time when you need to become stronger and finally move forward from playing like a child, to strong adult

I was wondering if it's necessary to watch the first season again if I want to continue with season 2, because I have almost forgotten whatever happened in the first season, except for the characters' traits, and the fact that Ichika is the only dude that can pilot that thing.

Yeah it's recommended that you watch season 1 first :D otherwise, you will struggle to understand what's going on in season 2.

The "reboot" thing is in the Light Novel, where every volume was edited, re-printed and with different graphic artists. (and to be honest, better art as well)
