Provided is a liquid crystal display device, including: a first substrate including a first electrode and a second electrode each including a plurality of linear electrodes and formed so as to be comb-like; a second substrate; a blue-phase liquid crystal layer; first drain lines and second drain lines extending in Y direction and provided side by side in X direction; gate lines extending in the X direction; a first thin film transistor for supplying a drain signal from one of the first drain lines to the first electrode; a second thin film transistor for supplying a drain signal from one of the second drain lines to the second electrode, which is plate-like and formed on the blue-phase liquid crystal layer side of the second substrate so as to cover at least a region in which pixels are formed.
