No, you got me wrong.

What I mean is...when I played the FE on the GBA there was usually a cutscene between the characters after a battle where the characters talk and such. After the cutscene with the characters talking, it suddenly turns into another battle. No exploration or anything. Just Cutscene, between characters, battle, repeat. Is it like that the whole time?

Oh I see, then yes.

There is no world map or exploring (except in FE8 for the GBA).

Usually there's an inbetween or before chapter area where you can do various things such as rearrange items, save, view/set up supports...etc.
