The invention relates to a multi-layer display element configured by a plurality of layers for use as a display section of electronic paper or others, and a manufacturing method for the multi-layer display element. The invention provides a multi-layer display element that allows a pixel area not being narrowed, a high yield of electrode formation, and interlayer connection with no need for a high-temperature process, and a manufacturing method for such a multi-layer display element. The multi-layer liquid crystal display element includes a data signal output terminal group from which data signals are provided, a scanning signal output terminal group from which scanning signals are provided, a data electrode connection wire rod group respectively connecting data electrodes to the data signal output terminal group, and a scanning electrode connection wire rod group respectively connecting scanning electrodes to the scanning signal output terminal group.
