The addition of "The" to the title on Japanese releases of Queen's "Seven Seas of Rhye" (such as the 1974 Elektra single pressing) was a common translation and stylistic convention. In Japanese pop culture and liner notes, adding "The" to proper nouns or fantastical titles often helped them sound more epic, distinct, and official

It was a standard marketing choice to make song titles sound highly stylized to Japanese audiences, rather than a reflection of a band-endorsed name change.
