report on behalf of the MITSuME collaboration:

We observed the field of GRB 141121A (Lien et al., GCN Circular #17075) 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 2014-11-21 12:59:47 UT (~9 h after the burst).
We detected the previously reported optical afterglow (Tanga et al., GCN Circular #17078) in the g',Rc and Ic band.

The measured magnitudes are listed below.
