Decapitation is central to the movie. It happens by accident toward the beginning, and a character dies by suicide decapitating herself.

Also an animal is decapitated

In the mini-event 'Le 14 Julliet', Foolish is crowned as king and then beheaded. This is non-graphic as it is minecraft, and everyone got their own Foolish head to keep from the event.

There are MANY brutal decapitations of humans and walkers. Several characters end up beheaded, and the severed head turns into a zombie until someone destroys the brain. There are scenes of undead severed heads stuck on spikes as a warning. An older, much-beloved character is murdered via decapitation.

Technically no, but after one assimilated character dies, a still-living head pries itself off of the body and grows legs.

There is no pain or discomfort depicted, but it is, visually speaking, a human head being separated from a human body.

Yes, an android. Then there's a scene where human characters talk to the head. (Actor with his body hidden under the table.) His face is smeared with white coolant "blood" and it's gurgling out of his mouth.

There is mention that Crump’s head is not able to be found, and someone chopped it off.

The bride decapitated her 5 husbands and this is mentioned but you never saw it happen, they just discuss it and she carries an axe.
