report on behalf of the MITSuME collaboration:
We searched for the optical counterpart of GRB 181022A
(F. E. Marshall et al., GCN Circular #23364)
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 2018-09-05 17:32:02.95 UT.
We did not find any point source at the enhanced position of the
XRT error circle (F. E. Marshall et al., GCN Circular #23364) in all three
bands.
We obtained following 3-sigma upper limits for the magnitudes.
