Kawai (Tokyo Tech) report on behalf of the MITSuME collaboration: We searched for the optical counterpart of GRB 1710202A (J. L. Racusin et al., GCN Circular #20575) 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 2017-02-02 18:28:41 UT (39 sec after the burst). We detected the optical counterpart (J. L. Racusin et al., GCN Circular #20575 ) in g', Rc and Ic band. The measured magnitudes were listed as follows.
