report on behalf of the MITSuME collaboration:
We searched for the optical counterpart of GRB 180514A
(LaPorte et al., GCN Circular #22723)
with the optical three color (g', Rc, and Ic) CCD cameras attached to
the MITSuME 50cm telescope of Akeno Observatory, Yamanashi, Japan.
The observation started on 2018-05-14 13:39:12 UT.
We did not find any point source at the position of the XRT error
circle in all three bands. We obtained following limits for the magnitudes.
T0+[min] MID-UT T-EXP[sec] g' Rc Ic

T0+ : Elapsed time after the burst
T-EXP: Total Exposure time
We used UCAC-4 catalog for flux calibration.
