“Sekaisen(世界線)” means kind of parallel world.

In my image, this word was getting popular because of an Anime “STEINS;GATE(シュタインズ・ゲート)”.
This anime is from video game, I’ve never played it, but the anime is so great.
I recommend to watch it!!
If you watch it, you can understand the meaning.

These days, this word become an almost common word not only for otaku.
