The MyAnimeList API will, at some point, add a characters and people API. See https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1973141&show=0#msg64959633
However, the API cannot be used (yet) to:
- post comments in the forum²;
- send private messages to other users²;
- query the characters or people databases³;
- access the news or featured articles pages;
- interact with several other functionalities found on the website.
(¹) Only the main forum boards can be accessed.
(²) It's technically possible to send messages and post forum comments using the API, but the recent introduction of Google reCAPTCHA made it impossible to perform such actions in an automated manner.
(³) The characters and people endpoints exist but are undocumented and under active development. Don't use them.
