祖父滋悟郎に大学進学・就職で一方的に決めつけられ、恋愛においてもほとんど許されないなか、
This sentence seems to imply either he picks which college she attends, for me unlikely, or he doesn't allow her to date while at college or work. The English and Japanese Wikipedia page show contradictory information on the matter:http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAWARA! and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yawara!_A_Fashionable_Judo_Girl
One page says Atlanta Olympics, the other says Barcelona. Perhaps the localizations changed the locale?
