I got Calibre in part because it was too much of a hassle creating new series/collections on the Kobo itself. (I hate touchscreens. My Kobo Forma has page turn buttons for just that reason.)

If you really want that, you can open the driver configuration (either the KoboTouch or KoboTouchExtended) and on the Collections, covers & uploads tab, add series to the Collection columns box and check Create Collections (I'd suggest also checking Delete empty bookshelves). Your next metadata update should take care of creating the series collections and adding the books to them.
Now that is a fantastic idea. I already have "delete empty bookshelves" on.

Note, the way I have things set up, my books go from Calibre series to Kobo collections anyway, so maybe I have already done that. I only really had a mismatch when sending books directly from Kobo Desktop to the Kobo.
