We conducted near-infrared (Y and Ks bands) imaging observations of 105 GLADE galaxies (Dalya, G. et al. 2018, MNRAS, 479, 2374) in the localization region of the gravitational wave event LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA S240422ed (GCN 36236

) using the Multi-Object InfraRed Camera and Spectrograph (MOIRCS; 3.9x6.9 arcmin^2 field-of-view; Suzuki, R. et al. 2008, PASJ, 60, 1347; Ichikawa, T. et al. 2006, SPIE, 6269, 38) on the 8.2-m Subaru telescope. We started our observations at UT 2024-04-24 05:18, about 31.7 hours after the event. Most of these 105 GLADE galaxies were not observed with Subaru/MOIRCS on UT 2024-04-23 (GCN 36265

). The list of the observed galaxies is shown in the table below. We also took Y and Ks band images for transient candidates reported in GCN 36263

, and 36273

. The exposure times are 15 and 15-20 seconds in Y and Ks bands, respectively. 
The data were reduced with the MCSRED (Tanaka, I. et al. 2011, PASJ, 63, S415) and detailed examination of the obtained data is now underway.
