report on behalf of the MITSuME collaboration:

We observed the field of GRB 151027A (A. Maselli et al., GCN Circular #18478) 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 2015-10-27 09:13:52 UT ( 5.25 h after the burst).
We detected the previously reported optical afterglow of GRB 151027A 
(WeiKang Zheng et al., GCN Circular #18479) in the g',Rc and Ic band.

The measured magnitudes are listed below.
