A liquid crystal display device is provided with high fabrication efficiency, which produces small display unevenness and which is capable of high quality display with excellent viewing angle characteristics and high transmittance. A liquid crystal display device of the present invention includes: a first substrate which includes pixel electrodes and an alignment film; a second substrate which includes a common electrode; and a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate. Each of the pixel electrodes includes a plurality of subpixel electrodes electrically separated from one another on an insulating layer. The subpixel electrodes have a recess recessed toward the insulating layer. The subpixel electrodes and a drain line are connected at the recess. Part of the common electrode lying above a whole area of the pixel electrodes is substantially flat.
