To borrow a feature idea from MALupdater, you can enable an option that if your episode number is more than 1 higher than the previous episode watched, you can receive a notification indicating that you may of skipped an episode.

Some implementation ideas are either a direct option, or perhaps in the scripting for the Application / Episode notification format option an ifSkipped(Your Message) function that is equivalent to
$if($greater(%episode% - %watched% , 1), Your Message) , if the scripting supported subtraction.

Taiga already lets you know (although not by a notification) when episode count is out of range (there is an option to turn this on and off) and won't update the episode count, you can see this when viewing the window to Taiga when an episode is detected to be playing.

I don't really believe a notification for this is really necessary, it is unlikely to happen very often, that is just my opinion however.

I see the ignore if episode number is greater than next episode the reason I asked for a notification is this issue is it seemed to occur a bit more with the migration from one database to another and the episodes don't align properly. It also occurs if you use taiga to log watched episodes, instead of opening it before watching an episode to let you know which to watch next, and accidentally skip one or two, and it doesn't alert you until you've spoiled some of the series. Since it was in MALupdater there was probably other motivations to add it, but I understand if it isn't a priority, as like you said it doesn't happen often, at least for the individual.

It rarely happens when I have Taiga open while watching something either on Crunchyroll (depending on the series Taiga is useless for auto updating my library, the HD episodes to One Piece and the 2nd season to MHA to name a couple) or on my HDD, it did happen with Vivid Strike (this was a rewatch) for some reason, my guess is it failed to properly update the episode when I went to the next episode without closing MPC-HC 64-bit and only noticed it was saying (out of range) for a couple of episodes, I just had to update the episode count manually.

I only use Kitsu with Taiga.

Let's just wait and see what @erengy has to say about the idea.
