report on behalf of MITSuME and OISTER collaboration:

We observed the field of GRB 151031A (Sonbas et al., GCNC 18538)
with the optical three color (g', Rc and Ic) CCD camera attached
to the MITSuME 50cm telescope of Okayama Astrophysical Observatory.

The observation started on 2015-10-31 15:54:27 UT (10.1 h after
the burst). We could not detect the previously reported afterglow
(Malesani et al., GCNC 18540; Kuin and Sonbas, GCNC 18546) in
all the three bands.

Three sigma upper limits of the OT are listed below.
We used GSC2.3 catalog for flux calibration.
