report on behalf of the MITSuME collaboration:

We observed the field of GRB 120326A (Siegel et al., GCNC 13105)
with the optical three color (g', Rc and Ic) CCD camera attached
to the Murikabushi 1m telescope of Ishigakijima Astronomical
Observatory.

The observation started on 2012-03-27 16:59:18 UT (~1.65 days after the
burst). We detected the previously reported afterglow (Klotz et al.,
GCNC 13107; Guidorzi, GCNC 13111) in g' and Rc bands.

Photometric results of the OT are listed below. We used GSC2.3 catalog
for flux calibration.
