Have you configured your calibre Kobo driver (whichever one of KoboTouch or KoboTouchExtended you're currently using) to update metadata?
If you're using latest calibre 3.35, enable checkboxes on tab 'Metadata, on-device & advanced' for both:
- Update metadata on the device
- Update metadata on Book Details pages.
The other thing to be aware of for users new to Kobo is that transferring metadata is usually a 2-part process.
First connect to calibre: use send-to-device to transfer new books. Then safely disconnect and the Kobo will add new book entries in the Kobo database. A few metadata fields (author, title, comments, ...) will be populated either via extract from the book's internal files or from a metadata plugboard if you're using one.
Second (and subsequent) connect to calibre: the calibre driver will auto-magically update metadata in the Kobo database using your latest calibre metadata (author, title, series, publication date, etc ...)
The moral of the story: always do a second calibre connect before concluding that metadata isn't being transferred correctly.
