 In this case, with or without "the" will make any difference? Please.

How about this sentence? I also read it in a grammar book. Please. |
There is a substantial difference between the sentence above and your first examples, Puzzle. Using, "See you on the Thursday" would be highly irregular in English.
Of course, when we want to specify a particular day still using its name, we have to add a 'the' but we always see a qualifying statement after, which shows how it's being specified.
the Thursday after next / the Friday of Golden Week / the Monday after my birthday / the Tuesday before Xmas / ...
I agree with NT that 'any' could be left out of the sentence.
