The assumption that something will improve after a rough launch based on nothing but pure faith in the author, the potential of the material, word of mouth, subjective opinion etc. It's a belief system that runs hand in hand with the idea of the "payoff", something I don't subscribe to. That something being that if you suffer through what you find mediocrity eventually there will be some sort of reward in terms of enjoyment as a series hits it's stride....or not. I actually know all about the future of the series believe it or not (it still doesn't sound all that impressive, but I could always be wrong), but to discuss it would be tantamount to spoilers and manga spoilers are not always welcome in anime adaptation threads.
