We performed optical imaging observations of the localization area of IceCube-250309A (GCN 39631) using the optical three-color (g', Rc, and Ic) CCD cameras attached to the MITSuME 50-cm telescope Akeno and the Tricolor CMOS Camera and Spectrograph (TriCCS) on the 3.8-m Seimei telescope. We started our observations at UT 2025-03-09 14:29 (MITSuME) and 2025-03-09 16:53 (Seimei), about 6.9 and 9.3 hours after the event, respectively. The observations with MITSuME covered the 90% probability region with 4 pointings while the observations with Seimei covered about half of the 90% probability region with 15 pointings. The data reduction and detailed examination of the data are underway.
