To my knowledge, we have had three Haskell presentations at TLUG:

Programming Language Survey: Haskell
http://www.tlug.jp/wiki/Meetings:2009:11

Haskell on Debian
http://www.tlug.jp/wiki/Meetings:2011:11

Metasepi Report: Writing NetBSD Sound Drivers in Haskell
http://www.tlug.jp/wiki/Meetings:2014:07

The Japanese Haskell community in Tokyo is quite large.  Note that most
people do not use Meetup, though.  If you would like to find more
attendees, the key is to be listed in IT勉強会カレンダー:

Many event organizers manage their events in ATND or similar services, and
the events are then included in IT勉強会カレンダー automatically.

I love to talk about Haskell, but I already have plans for that afternoon
and will unfortunately not be able to attend.

Have a great meeting!

Cheers,
