Unless you are officially registered as her guardian, which you probably aren't, considering your parents are both alive and well, you can't act as such. However, depending on the specific laws in Japan, this might not be required. For example here in Switzerland, the law is rather vague on the tissue. On the one hand, the civil code clearly states that children below the age of 18 aren't legally able to act without their parents. On the other hand, the civil code also clearly state that children who appear as emotionally mature and accountable have the explicit right to decide what happens to their own body. This includes getting things like tattoos and piercings because those are considered a very personal, intimate thing. In reality, the compromise is usually that a piercer will not ask for parents or parent's consent as long as the taboo/piercing doesn't cost more than one month worth of pocket money or salary.
Maybe there is a similar rule like that in Japan. Also, the fact that her older sister accompanies her might make a good impression and make parents' signatures unnecessary. I can also imagine that some piercers are stricter with this whole issue than others (no personal experience though).

You'd have to kill your parents to be her guardian. Asking for a note with your parents signature and cell number on it would probably be easier. 😅
No, you can't and if a artist agrees to do it, then if shouldn't do piercing.
Either she waits untill she's 18 or one of your parents signe for it.
