report on behalf of the MITSuME collaboration:

We observed the field of GRB 150413A (C. B. Markwardt et al. GCN Circular #17688) 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 2015-04-13 15:58:02 UT (~2.1 h after the burst).
We detected the previously reported optical afterglow (K.Ivanov et al. GCN Circular #17689) in the Ic band.

The measured magnitudes are listed below.
