Hamlet vs. Chushingura

I'm doing a worksheet for my English class, and I wouldn't mind
some help doing this comparison/contrast. I'm wondering if I
understand these character parallels correctly:

King Hamlet >> Enya Hangan
Hamlet >> Yuranosuke
Claudius >> Moronao

And also, I'm not sure if there's a character in Hamlet for
Wakasanosuke, that guy that had the retainer that bribed Moronao.

Please comment on anything relevant!! :)
thanx...
