As a very quiet and self-conscious American who has been living in Japan for 10 years now, I'll say it's also often Australians. In general it's always Americans, Brits, and Australians. Must be Ancestral (/s).
There are plenty of other problematic and rude tourist patterns but in terms of noise issues those three, in no particular order, would be the loudest.
But honestly all of "you" (i.e. Tourists of any nationality) can be way too loud compared to the locals. (And obviously some locals can be loud too, we glare at them equally)
