The blazar 3C 454.3 has recently brightened up in the gamma-ray, optical and X-ray regions (ATel #2322; #2325; #2326; #2328; #2329; #2330; #2332). We performed optical photopolarimetric observations with the Kanata 1.5-m telescope at Higashi-Hiroshima Observatory. Our preliminary analysis shows that the blazar 3C 454.3 was V=14.06+/-0.02 on 1.9 Dec 2009 (UT), compared with the star located at RA=22:53:58.18, Dec=+16:09:06.9 (V=13.587; Gonzalez-Perez et al 2001, AJ, 122, 2055).
