M. Yoshida, K. Yanagisawa, Y. Shimizu, S. Nagayama, H. Toda
(NAOJ), and N. Kawai (Tokyo Tech) report on behalf of the
MITSuME collaboration:

We observed the field of GRB071021 (Sakamoto et al., GCN6958)
with the three-color 50cm MITSuME Telescope at Okayama
Astrophysical Observatory. The observations started at 9:45:30
Oct. 21 UT (3m58s after the trigger). No new point source was
found in the XRT error circle of this burst (Barbier et al.,
GCN6966). The 3-sigma upper limits derived with the USNO B1.0
catalog are followings.
