MC-192927Breaking skeleton skull, wither skeleton skull, creeper head, piglin head, or dragon head from top produces no breaking animation
The bug
When trying to break either a skeleton skull, wither skeleton skull, or creeper head while standing on top and breaking in the middle of the head/skull, there is no breaking animation (cracks in the block). This is different from what happens when breaking any other block. It would be expected that the animation plays for the heads/skulls too. This does not seem to be the case for player heads or zombie heads, however. When breaking one of those heads, cracks can be seen before the head is broken.
How to reproduce
- Place down either a skeleton skull, wither skeleton skull, or creeper head
- Stand directly on top of it and start breaking the center of the skull/head
- Notice how no cracks appear, even though it will break
I've attached a screen recording of this.

When in the process of breaking a block while facing west or east, the 'destroy_stage_[stage]` texture will be mirrored vertically.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Enter survival
- Mine a block with your fist facing east or west
→
The texture is mirrored vertically - Repeating the previous step, now facing north or south
→
The texture is correct

Correct texture:

Same thing happens to me
i think its just like that
Can confirm in 21w03a.
Can confirm in 21w05a.
Can confirm in 21w13a.
Can confirm in 1.17.
Can confirm in 1.17.1.
Can confirm this in 21w39a. The expected behavior would be that breaking skulls/heads from above would display the breaking animation.

Player heads and zombie heads probably aren't affected because they have a hat layer, unlike creeper heads, skeleton skulls and wither skeleton skulls.
Per the duplicate, this also affects dragon heads.
