I responded to your whinge about calibre not using Cyrillic in it's internal library storage.

If you want to use series/series index on a Kobo without calibre, you are going to need to enter the series/Series Index in the .opf file within the ePub manually. ePub3 has a standard for series/series index while ePub2 does not. NickelSeries does understand both the ePub3 standard and calibre's series/series index for ePub2 in order to write that information to your Kobo's database. One oddity is that many ePub3 ebooks do not have the series information entered by the publisher.

Another option is to use a SQLite database editor to manually enter the series and series which is like any manual process prone to error.

I prefer to let calibre do the heavy lifting for me rather than manually editing ePubs in order to enter the series/series index or manually editing the database.

Since Save to Disk or Save to Device will use Cyrillic when exporting ebooks from calibre and you can create a directory structure using templates for Save to Disk, I find your objection to calibre not using Cyrillic in it's internal library to be a titch silly. You did look at the images in my post showing War and Peace as a sample Russian language title?
