Its unusual and humorous tone quickly caught on, leading to widespread usage in memes, videos, and comment sections across various platforms.
With this phrase being used widely, people wonder how it originated and its meaning.
Original comic of the viral phrase ‘Ora Ora Get Pregnant’ has amassed 59K likes and 7.1K reposts!
In January 2024, the Japanese webcomic artist uploaded a Sad Past webcomic. In it, he showed two high school girls pretending to have intercourse in the middle of class.
Furthermore, in the second comic panel, a doctor then tells one of them that they’re actually pregnant. Then, the third panel revealed a Yakuza-like character saying, “And that’s how I was born.“
By September 2024, nine months after its initial upload, the post has garnered 59K likes, 7.1K reposts, 253 comments, 6.4K saves, and 4.5M views.
Moreover, the webcomic came back in September 2024, which inspired other artists to redraw the illustration. @mydarlingchery uploaded a version of the webcomic featuring two female Genshin Impact characters.
Likewise, another artist posted a version using Princess Bubblegum and Marceline from Adventure Times. It was a joke that they were the mothers of the Count von Count from The Muppets show.
Several other versions of this ‘Ora Ora Get Pregnant’ phrase have been created. For instance, people have made versions of characters from Death Note.
