Provided are: a liquid crystal display device which is able to be produced at low cost and is able to be increased in size, while having good productivity; and a method for manufacturing this liquid crystal display device. A display panel 52 of a display module 51 of this liquid crystal display device is provided with: an active matrix substrate 1; a CF substrate 2; a liquid crystal layer 3 that is interposed between the substrates; and polarizers 4, 7. A 1/2λ retardation film 10 is arranged outside the active matrix substrate 1, and the polarizer 4 is arranged outside the 1/2λ retardation film 10, while being covered with protective films 5, 6. An optical compensation plate 8 is arranged outside the CF substrate 2, and the polarizer 7 is arranged outside the optical compensation plate 8, while being covered with a protective film 9. The absorption axes of the polarizers 4, 7 are generally parallel to each other. The slow axis of the 1/2λ retardation film 10 is at an angle of 45° ± 5° or 135° ± 5° to the absorption axes. |
