report on behalf of the MITSuME collaboration:

We observed the field of GRB 130427B (Maselli et al., GCNC 14460)
with the optical three color (g', Rc and Ic) CCD camera attached
to the MITSuME 50cm telescope of Okayama Astrophysical Observatory.

The observation started on 2013-04-27 18:47:30 UT (~5.4 h after the burst).
We did not find any new point source within the enhanced XRT circle
(Osborne et al., GCNC 14467) in all the three bands.

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