We report ASAS-SN observations of the new bright outburst of the EXor in Orion ASASSN-13db (Holoien et al. 2014, ApJL, 785, 35), first reported by Jim Jones in vsnet-alert 17962. The 2014 outburst of the low-mass YSO ASASSN-13db started between UT 2014 Oct. 29.23 (V > 17 mag, latest non-detection in ASAS-SN data) and UT 2014 Nov 6.55 (V=15.6). The latest ASAS-SN images obtained on UT 2014 Nov 12.57 show the transient at V=13.4 mag, ~0.5 mag brighter than the peak V-band magnitude observed in the 2013 outburst. Follow-up observations are encouraged.
