The purpose of the invention is to avoid the domain in high definition liquid crystal display devices. The representative structure is as follows. Scan lines extending in a first direction, video signal lines extending in a second direction, a pixel is formed in an area surrounded by the video signal lines and the scan lines, the pixel includes: a thin film transistor, a flattening film that covers the thin film transistor, a first electrode formed on the flattening film, a second electrode formed over the first electrode via an insulating film, and a contact hole that is formed in the flattening film to connect the first electrode and the thin film transistor; the second electrode is formed in common in plural pixels, and has a slit between the video signal lines; wherein the slit is formed continuously in a plurality of pixels arranged in the second direction.
