report on behalf of the MITSuME collaboration:

We observed the field of GRB 140907A (Krimm et al., GCN Circular #16788) 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 2014-09-07 17:05:39 UT (~1 h after the burst).
We detected the previously reported optical afterglow (Xu et al., GCN Circular #16789, Kuin and Krimm, GCN Circular #16791, Kuroda et al., GCN Circular #16793) in the g',Rc and Ic band.

The measured magnitudes are listed below.
