I am new to the taboo tattoo series and thus I apologize for the necro.But has this been revealed in the anime yet? Or is your answer based solely off the manga?

"Blood" explains this in episode 6.

<p>Seigi's Void maker has no other compatible host(<em>For now because of the fact that he's the only known host that is compatible with it</em>).. So that makes it keyless. And the reason why the Void Maker looks like it has a trigger(<em><a href="https://taboo-tattoo.fandom.com/wiki/Seigi" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Blood</a></em>) because the Void Maker Simply loves blood.. and Seigi uses blood as a trigger(<em>Even though it's not necessary</em>) because he doesn't know how to activate Void Maker without it.. I think</p>

<p>On multiple occasions, Seigi's tattoo is described as "triggerless" (this is the wording used on Crunchyroll). The first time we hear this is near the end of episode 1, around 22:08. However, when Seigi is talking with Izzy and Tom on the school roof in episode 2, Izzy tells him that his tattoo is triggered by blood. </p>

<p>It hardly makes sense for a "triggerless" tattoo to have a trigger. What's the deal?</p>

<p>(At first glance, this seems like a translation mishap, since the Japanese word in question is <em>mugen</em>, and I don't know of any way to get from there to "triggerless". But perhaps there's a good reason for this - I've only seen 3 episodes of the anime to this point, so I'm not very knowledgable about <em>Taboo Tattoo</em>.)</p>

The manga refers to it as 無鍵 or "keyless." The anime [uses the same term](http://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp/anime/tabootattoo/episodes/) (see the Ep. 3 summary).

As for what these keys refer to,

> There are actually 4 Void Makers and they are the keys to the Tattoo Ruins. It seems that every Void Maker needs a host to become a "key." So apparently Seigi's Void Maker had no compatible host prior to him, thus making it "keyless."

His trigger however seems to be blood.

Seigi's Void maker has no other compatible host(*For now because of the fact that he's the only known host that is compatible with it*).. So that makes it keyless. And the reason why the Void Maker looks like it has a trigger(*[Blood](https://taboo-tattoo.fandom.com/wiki/Seigi)*) because the Void Maker Simply loves blood.. and Seigi uses blood as a trigger(*Even though it's not necessary*) because he doesn't know how to activate Void Maker without it..
