report on behalf of the MITSuME collaboration:
We searched for the optical counterpart of GRB 190109B (B. Sbarufatti
et al.,GCN Circular #23648) with the optical three color (g', Rc, and
Ic) CCD cameras attached to the MITSuME 50 cm telescope of Akeno
Observatory,Yamanashi, Japan.
The observation started on 11:57:03.81 UT. We did not find any new
point source within the enhanced XRT circle (A.P. Beardmore et al.,
GCN Circular #23652) in all three bands. We obtained following 5 sigma
limits for the magnitudes.
